2018 Training Camp Thread - Day 9 (8/4/18)

[RobertWeathers]

It feels like the last few years all of our draft picks get injured early and often

Not accurate.

 

[JayNM]

Not accurate.

If i put a "To me" at the beginning, will it be good enough for ya, sir?

Comments:

a.) Mitchell, say what you want....he has not played a snap for us since Superbowl 51 and yet is still on the team. If it were hopeless, we would have cut bait a long time ago...we have a history of cutting bait on players drafted in the 2nd/3rd round (e.g. Tony Garcia, Brock Williams, etc...). The fact that he has hung around this long, just had a knee procedure 2 weeks ago, and is putting pads on is GOOD NEWS, IMO. The way I see it...the knee will hold up or it won't...and we will find out (e.g. How BB had Katzenmoyer practice to be sure the neck held up before Katz retired).

b.) Yup, worried about Cannon....happy for Michel...but Cannon is important...without him we are shuffling the OL...me no like!

c.) How has Dwayne Allen been looking? Is he even getting some passes thrown his way?

Allen seems to be low on reporters' priority lists, but is apparently seeing a lot of targets from Brady and catching significantly more, in spite of a couple drops. Hollister's y2y improvement seems to be bigger news, even though he's also had his share of drops.

"Procedure" = arthroscopic surgery. Not ideal.

Torn cartilage is my guess . I dont think Mcl would require surgery

Not on this board.

You do whatever you want but your perception is still off.

Reiss report:


Draining fluid does not sound compatible with being out for a month or more. We shall see.

 

[PatsFan2]

Sony will be back for the opener.

Fingers crossed. Howe's report is inconsistent with Schefter's so I am not counting on anything. Guy was rated by several teams as an injury risk with bone on bone knee then doesn't make it through camp.

Rap’s and Mike’s reports were also more optimistic. So I’m curious as to why Howe’s report is different from theirs.

Howe is Catholic. We are all Gloomy Gus

Nope just drained fluid.

To clarify, Shefters report is quoting Reiss, not other info.

Not enough info as usual. Could have been that they said they would keep him out at least 10 days but will be cautious given his history so see how he responds...could be several weeks or more.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Nope just drained fluid.

Now I'm curious as to the cause.

 

[Ring 6]

Swelling.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Now I'm curious as to the cause.

I would guess the constant cutting he’s doing on his runs.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Swelling.

Beyond that

 

[BaconGrundleCandy]

Now I'm curious as to the cause.

Doesn't take much if its his left knee. It could be from a million different things considering the damage already done to it.
