Tre White to PUP list, out first 4 games

Yep. A blind man could see that coming.

What an absolute disaster of an operation this FO did this offseason at the DB position.  Can't believe we are playing the first four games with 2 rookies and a 7th round young DB as our CBs.

sucks but we need him healthy for our superbowl run

The answer was to draft a CB in the first round, then we got a bonus by getting Benford in the 6th, so it may not be the best situation buts it’s manageable

I just hope we have Tre back for week 6 vs the Chiefs. The rookies and Dane Jackson will have to hold the fort until then.

Drafting a first round CB was to fill the hole next to White

Tre white won't be back until after the bye week after week 5 imho. 

Ike boettger probably back a little after mid season 

[Blank Stare]

 

Expected, but disappointing. Young cats will have to step up. If it’s one thing I don’t worry about with this team, it’s McD, Frazier, and Butler’s ability to coach up the DBs. I’d rather have Tre for the stretch run than game 1 (even with the tough start to the season).

So, what was your solution.  It’s easy to criticize so what’s was your solution

Definitely saw this coming.  Timing sucks with Robinson and Kupp in week 1.  Weeks 2-4 don’t concern me as much

Bradberry and Gilmore were both FAs.

[Forlorn hope]

Kair Elam was drafted to play man in our defense to better scheme against teams like the chiefs or bungals. Dane Jackson replaces Levi. Im pretty sure Benford surprised everyone and will rotate in. Benford emerging is why we didn't sign a vet cb

Agree.  If Tre isn’t going to be ready for Week 1, it’s not like Tannehill, Tua and Lamar are dominant passers in Weeks 2-4.  At least for Ten and Bal, we’ll be more concerned about stopping the run those weeks.

[JaCrispy]

As expected…

 

I still see him being out until the bye week…That would put him at 10 months since the operation- which is the average amount of recovery time for an athlete…👍

You do realize Elam and Benford are really good right. I trust McDermott with the secondary

Isn't our bye week 7?

 

I think his return date might be affected by how the young CB's play. If they are playing well, and we are winning games, they will bring Tre back as slowly as needed.
