Here is the excerpt from my medical report on Max Llewellyn :

HS: Foot fracture as sophomore.
Llewellyn appears to be clean except for a remote foot fracture. His reliability has been perfect in the past three years of college. His age is older than you'd like, but isn't a major issue for a late-round pick.

He finished with 20.5 TFL and 14.5 sacks in college.
