Mohammed Sanu to have surgery

This guy being out there on punt returns made me cringe every single time. Then he got hurt, and yeah he never looked right again.

However much I want to give him a pass for playing hurt, there were still issues. Mainly, the balls that bounced off his hands a few times. Poor routes and not being fast are easy to explain...those dropped passes are hard to figure out.

Here's to hoping we get the vs. Baltimore Sanu in 2020, who caught everything and looked like the guy we envisioned when the trade went down.
 
The question now is how soon he'll return.
 
Lost mobility doesn't explain the poor route running and terrible decision making on blocks

“Lost mobility doesn't explain the poor route running...”

We have a new leader for dumbest statement of the day.

I’m assuming that he’s talking about Sanu actually running the incorrect routes, and not his inability to cut or push off.
 
My new signature gif.

Exceptional footwork is required to gain separation, be in a position to catch a pass cleanly and turn upfield.

If the player has a high ankle sprain which clearly were in his case torn ligaments, that will directly hamper his ability to be in position to catch passes.

I think Sanu is better than what we saw last season. Came in the middle of the year, got hurt and sucked.

Lets see how he does healthy and a full off-season in the program.
 
My mistake. The mere mention of Sanu tends to get me angry and unfocused.

I was among some who questioned giving up a 2nd rounder for him when the trade was initially made and some posters were pretty aggressive about attacking that opinion

the fact that he got injured and was a total bust just adds to the frustration. Another valuable draft asset completely squandered away when this might be one of the most desperate times for draft capital in the last 20 years

incredibly frustrating.... but I still managed to fit in a #humblebrag
 
We spent too much to bring in this middling veteran WR. He caught a lot of balls in his first game but got injured and wasn’t the same all year. Fans are calling to cut him as his cap numbers are too high for what you get.

But enough about Danny Amendola’s first year. What’s this about Sanu?

He had 81 yards on FOURTEEN targets. Nothing about his disaster tenure serves as a hopeful reminder for 2020.
 
He's still on the team?
He's still my cap casualty prediction this off season.

He should've never been returning punts in the first place. I put blame on the coaching staff for this one. You trade a 2nd round pick for a guy who's QB desperately needs help at WR, yet you hang him out to dry fielding punts?

Why do many people point to this game as anything good? He averaged less than 10 yards a catch. His production was pedestrian. And that’s not even counting what the yards attempted actually was.

One doc said he’d be ready to go for the season. Not getting a lot of love here but I expect he’ll return with much improvement.

Virtually impossible for him to be worse.
 
Are you serious with this comment?

Are you saying leg injuries do not impact running routes effectively?

The injury only made a bad situation worse. Sanu came from a team with two very good receivers taking pressure off of him. Here, he didn't have that luxury seeing as the only real threat was Jules.
 
If anyone has the gif of this clown giving himself up a half yard short of the first down marker, please post it. Lol.
 
I hope for the best outcome
