LaFell and Easley not present at practice

People clamoring for more Tyms might get their wish.

Hmmmm

What about more Dobson than tyms? Dobson does have more receptions than tyms......

Dobson hasn't played in months. What makes you think he'll play now? Probably won't be here next year at this rate.

Another Fryar kitchen accident? Too early to worry about LaFell. Easley is a concern as he was last seen limping off the field with a trainer.

Yeah I dont recall lafell hurting himself during the game or hearing of it at practice last week

Maybe he had another matter to attend to.

Guys miss practice all the time for reasons which are neither injury nor discipline related. I think I'll pause before I jump off the nearest bridge.

My general injury philosophy is if it's not an obvious injury, don't worry on Tuesday or Wednesday, worry on Thursday and Friday.

Kind of hope this opens the door for Dobson.

Neither player is in Chris Simms' top-five list of active Patriots who did not attend practice today. His list is (1) Chandler Jones, (2) Russell Wilson, (3) Phil Simms, (4) Chandler Jones, and (5) Brandon LaFell's pads.

Tyms CANNOT replace LaFell or even come close. Dobson has shown the ability to come close though.

Don't forget that today is not a normal day of practice if it wasn't the bye. I wouldn't put much stock on who will or won't be playing on Sunday based on today's attendance.

What about Generalissimo Chandler Jones?

Easley is an often injured young man. It's a shame I would love to see him at 100% but I'm beginning to think that is not going to happen until 2015.

I love the Easley pick now and did when we drafted him. But I never really expected much from him this year as he missed so much time in the off season. Hard to do much as a rookie when you miss so much time.

LaFell late for practice? This is totally speculative, so don't run with it.

did teh doom and gloomers come in yet to say "see SEEEE I told you we should have traded all our picks for Vjax!!!!!!!"

I agree. I wanted Easley predraft he was on every mock I made, so I'm very happy we drafted him. I just hope he can be 100% next season and be the dominate player I feel he can be.

lets wait until Thursday or Wednesday..if they arn't there Thursday then yes bad. Easley hopefully nothing major since he was limping...lafell seemed normal

I think the only appropriate reation is
