With that being said... does one backup MJD for the short term with G Jones, or the long term with Jennings?
Carlos Beltran has been out for 3 months with a bone bruise in his knee. Not saying that's the case here, but just saying that "bone bruise" tells us little
It's not an ACL or knee ligament unless he messed his knee and ankle up. It has clearly been reported he left in walking boot meaning ankle. Nothing to dismiss, but I don't think it can be his knee
Carlos Beltran:a) Plays baseballb) Is a well documented wussKY
Is that because they are clueless, or because there is an over reaction here?I find it funny that if you go to the Jaguars message board there's more of an uproar about longtime long snapper Joey Zelenka being let go than MJD's injury.
Maybe because it isn't a knee , he walked off fine to the locker room , and NOONE in the main stream media is even picking up on this story. other than that dunno.Is that because they are clueless, or because there is an over reaction here?I find it funny that if you go to the Jaguars message board there's more of an uproar about longtime long snapper Joey Zelenka being let go than MJD's injury.
I don't get the size concerns for MJD. He's short but thicker than almsot every other RB in the league. How does being short make him more susceptable to injury?
I hear ya.I got really tired of hearing about M. Vick last night, trying to stay up to see the hit on MJD. Hope it's nothing serious, but it will be hard for us that will be drafting tomorrow night, especially with the #1 pick in a PPR league.Maybe because it isn't a knee , he walked off fine to the locker room , and NOONE in the main stream media is even picking up on this story. other than that dunno.Is that because they are clueless, or because there is an over reaction here?I find it funny that if you go to the Jaguars message board there's more of an uproar about longtime long snapper Joey Zelenka being let go than MJD's injury.
Likely a little of both. Clueless in that there's a large homer element and since Del Rio said he would be fine, many of the posters there will just accept that as fact. But I also think there's been an over reaction in fantasy circles. MJD could have a more serious injury, but there's no reason to suspect at this point that it's anything other than what has been reported. We've all been stung before by premature for false reports so I think fantasy people are quicker to worry.Also understand that Joe Z is extremely popular locally. He's a funny guy, does a lot of charity work, etc.Is that because they are clueless, or because there is an over reaction here?I find it funny that if you go to the Jaguars message board there's more of an uproar about longtime long snapper Joey Zelenka being let go than MJD's injury.
I'm a potential member of group #2. Was set on MJD at #1 until this.
I was wondering the same thing. Del Rio is a moron. I didn't see any other team playing their marquee stars last night.
Oh so this means he would able to make cuts up a field with 11 peeps chasing him, good to know!A injury is an injury!
I'm worried I may have developed a caterax just reading this thread. Could be out indefinitely...Hypochondriacs on parade.
Lucky you didn't tear your frenulum, could be the end of the line.I'm worried I may have developed a caterax just reading this thread. Could be out indefinitely...Hypochondriacs on parade.
I just read somewhere that he may need his leg amputated!!!!!11!Lucky you didn't tear your frenulum, could be the end of the line.I'm worried I may have developed a caterax just reading this thread. Could be out indefinitely...
Yes, this is confirmed, they have amputated MJD's leg.Tough break for MJD and his fantasy owners
All indications on local radio is that, barring bad news on the MRI, the injury is minor.That being said, don't expect the Jags to tip their hand until they have to.-First injury reports aren't due until next Wednesday. If it's bad news why give Indy advance notice?-With the long weekend, I'm not sure there's another practice until Monday.-If the injury was potentially lingering, why give advanced notice to teams that might be cutting a potential replacement.
I think the opposite. If it's bad news, they'll suppress the info as long as possible.
if it's a HA sprain or a ACL they will announce it now I think.
I think what has some people concerned, including me, is that it doesn't NEED to be anything over what has been reported. A deep bone bruise can be brutal. Like half the season brutal. I'm not even thinking about knee damage, since the walking boot pretty much tells us otherwise.Likely a little of both.

JaxBill.. Jennings, Jones, or is neither worth a pick? Spot start or otherwise.JaxBill said:

Jennings was first in the game after MJD last night. Don't know what's going on with Greg Jones. I didn't see him in the game at all last night, not even at FB which is what he's been playing mostly.

Lots of teams played their stars last night. I saw Jacobs play, I saw Calvin playing, Fitz was playing, Turner was playing, and the list could go on. Point is it wasn't just MJD that played. I'm not defending it, I wouldn't have played him, but a lot of other teams felt it was important to let their stars play too.Well, if the leg somehow developed an infection, and that infection was unknown long enough to go untreated, osteomyelitis could occur. The if he didn't respond well to the treatment, the infection/osteomyelitis could worsen, and then....oh, nevermind.Deranged Hermit said:
With an amputated leg how much does MJD's value drop? I was going to take him #1 but now i think 3rd round. His missing leg might scare some owners away but i think it makes him that much more elusive on the run.
One leg means less to tackle, shark moveWith an amputated leg how much does MJD's value drop? I was going to take him #1 but now i think 3rd round. His missing leg might scare some owners away but i think it makes him that much more elusive on the run.
No way I would trade MJD for Portis.
Calvin Johnson?...Michael Vick?weasel3515 said:I was wondering the same thing. Del Rio is a moron. I didn't see any other team playing their marquee stars last night.wadegarrett said:OU#1 said:
