Must have missed it...
 
Of course Branch will be injured sometime this season - name one season where he wasnt.

Please name them.

Walter Jones, Orlando Pace, Joey Galloway, and Emmitt Smith have all held out missing the entire preseason and sometimes games in the regular season and not suffered an injury.

Javon Walker, Kijana Carter, Benjamin Watson, Kellen Winslow, Curtis Enis and some others I can't think of right at the moment, give me a little bit. :rolleyes:

i can't think of a singe player right now miguel.
and i've seen the twig get injured, but not from any big hits that i recall. a couple considerations:
1. he's surely in great shape, but he hasn't been hit i n a long time. if there's such a thing as "game shape", he's not in it.
2. he's not familiar with that o0ffense or that QB, and he'll probably be more exposed to big hits while on his patterns.

I was unclear in my statement about the previous thread. That thread was not about Felgie; it was a what's the over under on Branch geting injured this forthcoming season given its inevitability according to the poster.

Most of the players you named were rookie holdouts. Branch is not a rookie.

When was that ever part of the premise? Rookie or not those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head and it generally seems that when a guy holds out for an entire training camp he ends up getting injured, because he is not in football shape. Pace was one of the guys I originally thought of that went against my thought, so I wasn't surprised you mentioned him. I also wouldn't be surprised to see Lelie get injured.
