BatteredFanSyndrome Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I'm shocked there is no interest in Andre Ellington. It seemed like destiny to me when he gets cut the same week CT is put on IR. No, I'm not expecting him to be awesome. But I do believe that he's worthy of taking over 3rd downs, considering our other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Might be easier to list who is healthy. It would be a shorter list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortisBetts Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Sounds like Roullier is also out. So now we have no centers either. 1 hour ago, CTskin said: I'm with you, he plays the exact role that CT had. Not to mention the fact that we're scarily thin at RB.

wilco_holland Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Lovao is also heading to IR. Currently we have 15 on IR. How does that work? Is Dan still paying guys who are on IR? This must be the most expensive year in terms of salary then. (Althought the uncapped year was also expensive with some sneaky moves of us, but unoffical cap was way lower then).

Who knows, if he's not signed by someone on Friday they may grab him sending Daniels back to the practice squad. But he has no time to learn the offense right now. 3 hours ago, wilco_holland said: Lovao is also heading to IR. Currently we have 15 on IR. How does that work?

Grizz Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 9 hours ago, carex said: yep, everyone IR counts against the cap I think, but I could be wrong, that its just the top 53 salaries. So even if we are pay 15 on IR and 53 on roster, its just a combination of the overall top 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoDeep81 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Saw were Perine was nominated for rookie of the week.. RIP Samaje, he'll probably be next to be IR'd after that accolade. #wearentallowednicethings (Im not even gonna mention Cousin's) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I’m about done with Jordan Reed. Trade him for picks and someone that is on the field much more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Probably hard to trade Reed considering he can never pass a physical. I'm done with him though as well. He needs to massively restructure or else we need to cut him and cut the loss in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I'm not done with Reed, but I am done with him getting the majority of the snaps. He needs a timeshare approach more than what we've been doing. Maybe he could last more than a few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCnDaHouse Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 You know what would happen though if you cut Reed. He signs with another team and plays stellar and stays healthy... But I understand the frustration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbunny Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 We've reached page 17... Here is how the situation looks like right now: IR: - Jonathan Allen, DT - Kevin Bowen, T - TJ Clemmings, T - Will Compton, ILB - Mason Foster, ILB - Dustin Hopkins, K - Arthur Jones, DL - Rob Kelly, RB - Shawn Lauvao, G - Spencer Long, C - Keith Marshall, RB - Trent Murphy, OLB - Terrelle Pryor Sr., WR - Phil Taylor Sr., DL - Chris Thompson, RB That's 15 guys on IR. 2 of them might come back at some point in the season. On the injury report for this week: - Terrell McLain, DL - OUT - Montae Nicholson, S - OUT - Jordan Reed, TE - OUT - Chase Rouiller, C - OUT - Ryan Anderson, OLB - QUESTIONABLE - Zach Brown, ILB - QUESTIONABLE - Ryan Grant, WR - QUESTIONABLE - Matt Ioannidis, DL - QUESTIONABLE - Anthony Lanier II, DL - QUESTIONABLE - Morgan Moses, T - QUESTIONABLE - Ty NSekhe, T - QUESTIONABLE - Samaje Perine, RB - QUESTIONABLE - Brandon Scherff, G - QUESTIONABLE - Martrell Spaight, ILB - QUESTIONABLE - Trent Williams, T - QUESTIONABLE That's 4 OUT and 11 Questionable here. Vernon Davis, Brian Quick and Quinton Dunbar should be good to go. Also, if you want to check here, it's even worse to look at: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/was/2017_injuries.htm Now, just to have fun if all those questionable guys are out here what our team will look like: Offense: - QB: Cousins (McCoy) - RB: Byron Marshall (LeShun Daniels) - TE1: Vernon Davis (Jeremy Sprinkle) - TE2: Niles Paul - WR1: Josh Doctson (Maurice Harris) - WR2: Jamison Crowder (Brian Quick) - LT: Nobody - LG: Arie Kouandjio - C: Tony Bergstrom (Rhaney) - RG: Tyler Catalina - RT: Nobody I would then suggest the coaches to play Sundberg at C and move Bergstrom and Rhaney to both T position, or whatever... That'll be scary. Defense: - DL1: Ziggy Hood (AJ Francis) - DL2: Stacy McGee - DL3: Caraun Reid - OLB1: Ryan Kerrigan (Junior Galette) - OLB2: Preston Smith (Ryan Anderson) - ILB1: Zach Vigil (Pete Robertson) - ILB2: Joss Harvey-Clemons (Chris Carter) - CB1: Josh Norman (Kendall Fuller - Fabian Moreau) - CB2: Bashaud Breeland (Quinton Dunbar) - S1: DJ Swearinger (Joshua Hosley) - S2: Deshazor Everett (DeAngelo Hall) Not exactly what you want to see. Hopefully, we won't reach that kind of thing. But if something ever happens to Bergstrom, we'll have to play our 4th string Rhaney or play Scherff here or I don't know who... Yeah... We're good...

srtman04 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Are we the most injured team in the league this year? Hell, how about this decade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kleese Posted November 24, 2017 Author Share Posted November 24, 2017 I think this is a huge week for injury updates. I think we reached the tipping point against the Giants-- we've been battling all year, but last night they REALLY didn't look like the same team. Fortunately, the Giants stink and we played tough and got the W. But I don't think we can beat Dallas unless we get at least a few of the guys back. In particular, I think we at minimum need Roullier or Trent. Ideally, if we have both the OL is actually pretty solid. As a matter of fact, depending on how Ty fares at LG it's possible it's a tad better than early in the year. But with Ty at LT, Arie at LG, and Bergstrom at C, that is really, really pushing it. Probably two guys that shouldn't be in the league starting. The other one I will really be watching for is Nicholson. I think the drop off is clear without his speed. And I dare to even say this, but man this would be a nice week to get Reed back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbunny Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I would say it depends on Sean Lee's status. If he's good to go, yup, we might need a few guys back on the OL. But I feel that we played it cautious with Trent against the Giants because well, they aren't good. Rouiller is another problem. But otherwise, their D isn't really world beaters. We could get away with another ugly win even without some. I feel like Gruden is trying to spare time here and there to guys so we can rest them for the final games and in paloffs. That is if we reach them of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kleese Posted November 25, 2017 Author Share Posted November 25, 2017 I think it’s obvious with Trent they are trying to manage it without completely throwing him to the wolves. Coming back on a short week probably wasn’t smart so now he gets an extra 3-4 days before he has to play again. My guess is that he is back out there for Dallas and we see him return to the week to week status. And once we are eliminated (if that is) then they likely shut him down. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t start in Dallas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetThePointsSoar Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 If we can take care of business in Dallas, how great is it that we get a full 10 days before we play the Chargers? THAT'S the game we really need to be healthy as possible. They're a dangerous squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd like some updates on key Cowboys Lee & Martin Report from Cowboys practice yesterday was that Lee was working off to the side and that he was "iffy" for our game. Considering it's a hamstring, I'm thinking odds are likely against him playing if he isn't able to really run on it yet, much like Reed is dealing with for us. Martin and LB Justin Durant got concussions on Thanksgiving. Sounds like Dallas is optimistic they will pass protocol, but you never know now with those.
