Yeah I think there are “opinions” that he will miss the season because this type of injury can be that type of timeline, but reports are 2-3 months expected and then “indefinite” by the team. Even the Buffalo news uses 3-4 months but not as an expected timeline, as a typical timeline. That’s where the confusion flows. 

 

It's tough because that area is stressed a LOT pretty much every snap by him having to reach his arms out and forcefully try and block opposing defenders...one of those things that if this happened to another position they might be able to get back quicker because there wouldn't be as much stress put on that area.

I do think the position that he plays will make it tougher for him to return on the aggressive side of that time frame

Or our of shape.   There you go.

 

I'm looking forward to my man Josh making the good moves and lighting it up this season.  Poor doc----stuck in high school where it's all about who "likes" who, and all those "haters".

 

Nice backtrack, as usual.  Read Yolo's link above.  Note the part where Feliciano says "Came in 15 pounds underweight + felt stronger than I've ever been."  Sounds real out-of-shape.  Although he must be lying, right?

 

And yeah, I'm the one who's "stuck."  But just out of curiosity, what's the reason for disliking Feliciano?  Did he jay-walk or something?

If the Bills could withstand an injury at any position on the OL, RG is it.

It will be great to get him back, fresh, for the second half of the season and the big playoff run. He will be ready when it is time.

 

If he can come back that quickly.  Might be best to take the season off.

I am sure he will try as hard as he can to get back to it. These guys are ultra competitors. So then it comes down to what the team wants and NEEDS at that time.

I don't know him.  So I don't dislike him doc.  I was speculating.

When you don't know or dislike people and hear bad news about them, you typically either say nothing or offer condolences and/or well wishes.  Speculating that it's because they're a lazy fatass...

Why? Of course it can vary in real life, but the expectations are 3-4 months. Which means November is possible, December quite sure. Still sucks, but he can there at the middle/end

Let's see how his rehab goes.  Hopefully it goes well and he can return this year and make a positive impact.  I don't want him rushing back just for the sake of playing, and playing poorly or having a setback.

I'm sure Watt juiced it to the gills and took every other illegal performance enhancer known to man to make it back that quickly as well. Just sayin.

The use of the  juice is a common practice for injury therapy, This has been going on for decades. I think it’s hysterical that there are still some who pretend that peds of all sorts is not a common practice in pretty much all pro sports. I hope JF makes his own miracle come back.
 

Go Bills!!!

If Ford ends up starting the season at RG, and the combo of him and either Williams/Nsehke works well on the right side, I’m assuming Feliciano would become our backup G/C if/when he comes back?

 

With him likely being out at least a couple months, the question is how do the Bills handle this?  Since they kept 9 OL to start last season and probably would like to do the same this year, do they keep 10 and IR-R him after the first game?  And if so, who do they release, hope doesn't get picked-up and re-sign?

It's tough to manage but having too many good O-line players isn't a problem. But to me the 9th O-line player on the roster will be bumped to make room for Mongo. I see three spots behind the starters as being safe. Ty is the backup to both tackle spots and a quality starting caliber player, Winters is the backup to both guard spots, and Bates is the Swiss Army Knife who can play all five spots in a pinch. Not sure who they bring at the 9th O-line player but likely they will be cut to make room for Mongo who can play center or guard.

After thinking about it further, I think they keep the 5 starters plus the guys you mentioned and Mongo.  Then after the first game they put Mongo on IR-return and re-sign one of the OL they released.  The odds that 3 starters get injured are minimal so going with 8 healthy OL is less of a risk, and keeping 10 OL means sacrificing a player at another position.
