Codyny13 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Does anyone have info on Taron Johnson bring in the hospital? His IG story shows him in a gown and in a bed. Is he having the shoulder surgery now? Or is it something routine? I haven’t seen Anything from the Bills yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s being shut down for the rest of the year. They brought up Denzel Rice from the PS. He needed the surgery eventually. Might as well get it as soon as eliminated. He was holding on to his shoulder again during the game on Sunday. Edited December 5, 2018 by YoloinOhio 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaattMaann Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 really big bummer...but honestly, we know what we have in him, and thats a DAMN GOOD CB, shut him down now and get the problem fixed (he has been playing hurt all year) so hes ready to go all offseason and next year. no lingering issues if you get it done now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelingOnYouboty Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Really good pickup for us last year. Hopefully we can get Siran Neal going because I really liked him during the lead up to the Draft last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shoulder has popped out of socket in games and they knew he needed surgery in the offseason. Maybe they are getting a head start on things by ending his season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Assume part of the process is scrapping everything once playoffs are out and immediately start focusing on next season with the roster, player development game planning.. everything. Winning is second priority to that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the process is shutting down injured players after the playoffs are out and letting them get needed medical procedures so they are ready for next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wppete Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) That’s too bad he gone for the rest ofnthe season but this is a good idea. Get him 100% healthy for the start of next year. He is going to be a star and pro bowler in the league very soon. Taron is is one of the toughest guys on this Defense.

While I agree with you on Taron and his future, I wouldn’t call him “our best” rookie this year. Maybe most consistent in his role, but I feel like you said to specifically take another subtle shot at Allen who you have been slow and reluctant to warm to. Allen the last two games is another player. He had a great game vs Vikes, but even that’s was nothing like the last two games. Taron hasn’t had a game with that level of impact. Allen is by far the most impressive rookie so far, and Edmunds has contributed more too. Although Edmunds plays more snaps, so he’s gotten more opportunities. Don’t get me wrong, I love what I have seen from Taron in his role, but even after a strong showing this season from the kid there seems to be a need to draft another starting corner to start so Taron can remain as the Nickel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree nickel is a less important position than Quarterback and MLB but Taron has outperfomed Josh and massively outperformed Edmunds. Edmunds had a decent game this week after the 1st Quarter when he got picked on a bit but he is still very, very raw. EDIT: put it this way... Taron has been the best performing rookie but not necessarily the most impressive. Edited December 5, 2018 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add, sounds like they feel surgery now gets him back for a substantial portion of next seasons camp and season prep. So worthwhile trade off. tasker went on to say he’s got tons of rookie snaps out of the way, they know what they have in him, coverage plus run support are big positives and thus a good time to go get it fixed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taron has been the best performing rookie but not necessarily the most impressive. Both Josh and Edmunds are playing positions that are more difficult for a rookie to play than the slot corner position. It's like comparing someone trying to learn Chinese compared to someone trying to learn how to stack fruit at the grocery store. Of course the fruit stacker is going to be more accomplished at his job than the person trying to be a linguist. Just because Allen has outmatched your draft ranking with his performance that shouldn't be a reason for you to so begrudgingly and reluctantly acknowledge how he has performed. And it was to be expected that the 20 yr old Edmunds was going to play inconsistently in his rookie year. Overall, despite his inconsistency he has demonstrated that he is going to be a superb and instrumental player for us in the not too distant future. .
