I disagree.
I believe big stuff turns it around this season. the combination of McD and Wauffle will motivate him (like the motivation under Saban, another disciplinarian) which should help out a lot in that turn around?
playing up front in the trenches just about any player will be limping or holding a shoulder or worse, that's part of the game.
his significant loss of time on the field was due more to the off field activities than injury. so where many have their doubts, if he can keep straight there should be no discussion or consideration of a trade.
with the change of culture under the new coaching staff, he should continue to be a beast and a core asset up front.
as for brown, he would be a good depth player to keep on the roster or they could possibly get a 4th if traded? I expect Ragland to come back and have a break out season and likely earning a starting role on this defense?.
just my opinion...
