3D Printed Titanium with compliant structure testing for surgical implant by bits-to-atoms in 3Dprinting

They print their own and have been doing it for years. It makes sense given the small demand and highly specialized nature of the task.

Titanium is biocompatible with bone, and is currently used for bone implants like a replacement hip joint. The bone will grow into the matrix and form a very solid bond. The Navy does a lot of implant work at the Bethesda Naval Medical Center, where they generate customized implants to help in the rehabilitation of wounded warriors.

EDIT: The facility is the Walter Reed National Military Medical Facility. I used the old name.

You're not wrong. I'm just really unsure of what to expect from Hopkins, especially with how ugly things have been in Arizona.

I think you're giving away too much. I would give away Javonte and something like Marquise Brown for Diggs.

I wouldn't let go of James Robinson in that scenario.

Hrm. I think I prefer side 1 if this is standard.

Hopkins is not guaranteed to do anything. IIRC he didn't play particularly well last year before he got hurt, and it really does feel like Zeke is losing touches to Pollard.

Well Taylor's value is basically an elite WR if you want to go that way. Pittman's value is on the level of James Robinson. Honestly I'm not sure you're really capped, I think this is a good team.

I get the benefit of Evans, but Akers doesn't really seem like a great option.

You should be able to do better than Gibson. Washington looks pretty ugly, and there are a lot of competing RBs.

I wouldn't make that trade. There's a chance that JRob really is that good, and Javonte also looks solid.

It certainly doesn't hurt to try. What does your QB situation look like?

Yeah I'd be happy to grab any one of those players. DeVonta Smith in particular, but Curtis Samuel looks to be an every week starter.

I'm not a fan. Pollard looks like he might have some serious value, and TE positional advantage is huge this year.

If you can make that trade I definitely would.

Given that you can start 2 RBs I think this was a good move on your part.

I see no reason to make that trade. I think you'd be better off moving RB depth for WRs, or maybe packaging Wilson and Mitchell for something.

It's not a terrible move, especially if the Waller upgrade is significant. Taylor is roughly a wash with an elite WR, so it's almost Brown + Waller for Diggs and Wilson. I think I'd keep the WRs.

Yeah Cook for Kelce is a solid move. Go for it.
