    Jessie James looked good last game so really not worried abt Green. Like to get his money back if we were sold a broken Tight end

    Unreal that we spent that kind of money on a dude that couldn't even get to the field. Even if we DO get it back it is still ridiculous.

    i'm not giving up on grimble yet either. he has some of that down the seam ability too. he did it quite well at USC and we saw a small sample of it against the saints matched up on a LB. he's capable of it if the rest of the game starts coming together for him too. i think we will be OK in time at this position. :cool:

    He needs some work on his blocking.

    We've got him for 4 years... If he only misses 6 games, it's not a big deal. It's football. Guys miss games hurt. If he's out the entire year then we have a little bit of a bigger problem.

    So is his head better and this is all just for his ankle? My thing is that if he knew he had some concussion issues and signed anyway then that is really annoying.

    The issue of it all really has been the communication aspect of the situation. Green and Tomlin states it is his ankle... others say there are concussion symptoms.


    Either way.. for his sake, I hope he is ready by the end of his PUP deadline or there is seriously something amiss.

    Do we know if he was actually in the league's concussion protocol (or wth it's called)? I think Green could be a monster here and I was really excited about the signing. If this is just an ankle thing that's fine. Let him get to 100% and play the last 10 weeks and beyond. If they are trying to fix his head I'll be really pissed about this entire mess.

    Like stated above... Things happen and communication is not always front and center these days. If he heals up and gets some work in and looks good, win for us. If this is an introduction for a recipe for disaster scenario, well that sucks.

    Here's to hoping a month or so into the season, that d coordinators get themselves another wrinkle to headache themselves over

    Did Duce ever wear his jersey? Might want to go with sweat pants.
