Does any one know the medical examination protocol that teams are allowed to do when they evaluate potential draft picks? Also what kind of review is done at the draft? Seems strange that significant injuries go overlooked or are able to be concealed at these exams.

Not about his ankle, but reports are that he's struggling with the move to the inside (just heard this on Sirius too):

its a whole lot of guys -- with tunsil sliding so far, did miami even have him in along the way prior, or was he a guy they expected to be gone maybe?

Imagine that. Playing at tackle at guard isn't easy.

 

Finesse tackles don't usually work best in a phone booth. Setting him up to fail.

the medical screening around the league is dreadful

an alternative take may also include that the medical condition around guys in the league is so rough that it doesnt always make it easy to draw the lines.
