He says they aren't positive, however, he is ahead of schedule and working hard. Good to hear Quick question for everyone on the board as well regarding Wood. Rather than start a new thread, I was wondering, IF Wood is in fact ready to start the season, how much does the time off affect muscle loss and the ability to generate power in the lower body. I'm sure he has been doing lots of exercises for upper body, but not for legs. Will this hurt him a great deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 That echoes what Gailey said about him after the Combine, that Wood was "ahead of schedule". Good news...I still think he gets on the PUP to start the season, but I do believe he will play this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armchair GM Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Ok, so here's my take on the answers... 1.) We don't have a QUALITY starting QB on our roster right now. 2.) Marshawn is being shopped and will most likely be dealt 3.) We will dedicate at least 3 picks in this years draft to the O Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're an athlete at the professional level, it doesn't take as long to get back into form after setbacks. I'm with BillsGuyin OP with the PUP thing though...I'd expect to see him week 4, maybe even 2 or 3 if he's really that ahead of shedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metzelaars_lives Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Why does anyone think that Lynch will be traded? No one has ever speculated that he will be traded, Nix says the same thing every time he is asked. And furthermore, who wants Lynch to be traded? The guy runs hard and the only other RB on the roster is what, 29? YOU NEED TWO GOOD RB'S. We have two RB's, why would we want to mess with that?

I don't know that he'll be traded, nor think it either. But Metz, we all know he's another improptu road block-check from being out a year. That he still doesn't seem to be able to spot a hole quickly -after 3 years- has more to do with Jackson starting ahead of him than discipline, IMO. He's a freakin' load! I wouldn't want to face him, but if we had to, we won't worry about any clever cutbacks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kota Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think it's just the whole "It's up to him" line in Chan's response. Leaves it open to interpretation. It's up to him means it's up to Marshawn Lynch. Lynch was suspended for 4 games last year. If he has another infraction it will either be 8 games or a full season. That is what he meant.

I'm with BillsGuyin OP with the PUP thing though...I'd expect to see him week 4, maybe even 2 or 3 if he's really that ahead of shedule.

I can't see him getting traded unless its a stupid lop-sided deal for us. Why trade him only to draft another RB - we did that with Mcgahee and that was a net loss.

Thoner7 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 +1. That was a brutal injury. Makes no sense to rush this guy, we need him for years to come. Let him sit out the entire season - its not like we have a chance to win 6 games. We are going to be last in the AFCE, so let Wood heal. Hangartner can be a speed bump this season and Wood can start at C in 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Actually, there are 2 PUP lists. One is Active PUP, which players can be placed on prior to the start of training camp. They can be removed anytime during training camp/pre-season. Reserve PUP is what players are placed on if they're one Active PUP and aren't ready to play, but if a team feels he may be able to play after 6 weeks.
