As for the recovery, mine was similar to the advice above, but as PG said everyone is different.

About a year to being back competitive, assuming rehab goes fine. Two years to really feel comfortable.

Mine was hurt immediately prior to the draft in 04. was still drafted and recieved 2nd round money immediately post-surgery. Of course taking any player who has had surgery is a gamble but the odds are in favor of a successful recovery with TJ surgery. The best advice we received and the best that I can give is do not rush back. This is one of those cases were time is your friend.
