Boca BIlls Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Should have picked up Brice Willis, instead we got Samuel Jackson... 1
davspo Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 So was that a total of 4 practices. Frustrating for the kid I'm sure but not NFL durable. Again, we sort of knew this going into it. Given McD's quote, I can only presume its not something that would enable him to play this week.

Again, we sort of knew this going into it. Given McD's quote, I can only presume its not something that would enable him to play this week. Dude played in 46 out of 48 games over his first three seasons (missing two games in 2016) and then missed 11 games last season. So it's not like the guy has been a walking injury for his entire career, he just had some bad mojo last season and it's carried over to this season. It happens.

Charles Romes Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) I have seen enough. Nothing stood out from his resume either. My least favorite offseason signing. Time to move on. Duke to the active roster. Edited September 19, 2019 by Charles Romes 1

It makes you wonder what he said to convince the staff that he wasn’t an injury risk after a career of being injured. It almost makes you feel bad for Cincinnati. When Eifert wasn’t injured, he was and vice versa. Meanwhile Eifert is supposedly good to go this Sunday. This team has a terrible track record in drafting and signing players coming off injuries (Shaq Lawson, Trent Murphy, Morse, Kroft, EJ Gaines, Benjamin, etc.). I understand you can get “steals” in the draft and free agency this way but you have to consider dependability. Edited September 19, 2019 by ColeB

We haven't even had the chance to see Kroft yet, so I don't know what we're missing. This is when the depth that Beane has acquired and McDermott has developed really pays off. We can lose almost any starter on the team now and the next man up will be capable. Oddly for us, even the QB. I wasn't a Barkley fan but the dude has played well in his spots.
Playoffs? Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) Cut Kroft, bring up the Duke! Edited September 19, 2019 by Playoffs?

He just wanted to jump on a guy and try to make him look stupid but then stupid was starring at him in the mirror. Everybody knew he meant injury prone and not what you said in comparison to Rob Johnson.
fansince88 Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Not sure if it was pointed out but it isnt the same ankle

I like our new guys, and I don’t know what Kroft offers or what we’re missing. This is certainly bad news, but I like the way the FO avoided it being disastrous. Even Lee Smith looked like a WR on one play last week! We both said “who’s that?” Surprising development.

Time will tell. I’m making no decisions at this point with so little info. I happy that I like our two young (and cheap) guys so much. Very encouraging there. 1
