New update on Wood and other info


Recommended Posts

http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/...-lynch-and-wood

 

The first two points are things we already knew, but Nix says Wood is ahead of schedule and thy expect him to be ready for the start of the season. 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?

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

 

:lol:

 

These are your takes on what answers? If you meant questions, what questions did you answer? Because they don't fit any of the questions asked by the poster. You ok?

I don't think so. 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. :lol:

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 think it's just the whole "It's up to him" line in Chan's response. Leaves it open to interpretation. :lol:

how you could make that comment on lynch's status by what Nix said is beyond me. i believe he was saying was that if he keeps his nose clean the is not going anywhere!

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.

 

 

+1. That was a brutal injury. Makes no sense to rush this guy, we need him for years to come.

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..
