I won't be shocked to see multiple teams with injuries early in camp. Remember this is the first time many guys are playing since January any type of football. Some since Dec. With no Mini Camp and OTA's this is gonna happen more often IMHO
Apparently it’s a pec strain that they initially thought was a tear. So who knows when he’ll be back.
Hargrave posted on IG "All good, will be ready for the season." So maybe they are just sitting him out until then.
"Luck into a homerun" caught him the most flack in the Twitterverse, but I'm sure he 100% believes it to be true. He tried to justify his credentials by once again pulling out his Al Bundy greatest moment of being a "2x winner of the Eagles beat writers FG competition."
Stay you, ESP
Ok so he might be getting a drug test soon lolNigel Bradham, now with the Saints, is glad to finally play for a winning organization.
I stopped following and listening to him a while back. He’s the very definition of someone who is just trying to get clicks or noticed by saying outlandish things.Eliot Shorr-Parks, who is trying to be the poor man's Howard Eskin (not to be confused with Joe Giglio, who is trying to be the poorer man's Eliot Shorr-Parks), has been super on-brand this week:

Then this morning he jumped right into the hot take lava with this:

Just don't with that guy. Like Eskin and Missanelli, he's a troll looking to get a rise out of people. I'd be very happy if he was never mentioned/quoted in this thread again.The Noid said:Eliot Shorr-Parks, who is trying to be the poor man's Howard Eskin (not to be confused with Joe Giglio, who is trying to be the poorer man's Eliot Shorr-Parks), has been super on-brand this week:

Eskin is far better than either of those 2. I only ever see one reporter on the sidelines for the duration of the games hours before and after and it’s Eskin. He definitely puts the work in and has reliable sources.
Word spread pretty quickly this is just precautionary and he'll be fine for the season opener. We might be seeing a combination of the unusual off-season and the overhaul of the medical staff, with how they are handling these Sanders, Barnett, Hargrave, etc. situations.
I'm just gonna quote Jim Schwartz after Bradham had the gun incident.
He was decent with NJ.com but since joining WIP he's gone for the hot takes they love instead of being a journalist. I met him randomly at my local Manhattan Bagel maybe 5-6 yrs ago. Don't remember why he was in the area (Maybe hanging out with Tim McManus who lives 10 mins from me went golfing) but he seemed nice and was pretty friendly. Didn't really get the feel he was big in to this schtick he is on now. Must be a WIP thing
Was coming in here to mention maybe Signing Freeman might be better idea now then it was before
Eskin is the Sideline reporter for the radio broadcast but Eskin is way more reliable and not horrible like Mikey Miss who tries to be Eskin when he's not. If Eskin was still doing afternoons Mikey boy wouldn't be around. Mike is a clown. He's the guy who made the tweet about Victor Cruz hurting his ACL on the MNF game and when called out tried to backtrack it. NY Daily News had some fun with that at Mike's expense. A friend of mine wrote for a defunct blog and Mike was writing for the Inky. He was talking about Jimmy Rollins contract extension. My Buddy nicely told him he had a few numbers wrong on details as he checked with COTS (Who does baseball contract website of amount, bonus $$$ options etc even has manager contracts). Mikey got all Pissy with him. So my buddy also called him out on saying Hamels agent Casey Close had talked to him. Casey ended up talking to my buddy for an interview on Hamels extension and said the last person I'd give any breaking news to is a that Two faced Jack### MotherFer (Referring to Mikey Miss). I never told him anything and if I did say anything to anyone it'd have been to WIP to Eskin or someone. After awhile Mike probably typing drunk spewed some homophoic and racial endueendos (SP) at my friend. He sent me the emails from their back and fourth. He sent the emails to Mike's work who basically blew my buddy off. Tony Bruno also had some stuff on Mike too he went after when he defended Josh Innes after Innes was let go.
Especially after losing the first few games. I don't mind a coach/manager in pro sports coming in and making guys held responsible and accountable for actions like veterans for being idiots or just not playing like they should but these things have to be done carefully. I feel like when Teams/Clubs say they need to change the character of the locker room or discipline of the players it's all talk as the owners/GM don't want to put in the actual work it takes. For example if I'm manager or coach and one of the issues I see coming in is 2 superstar being lazy, late to practice, staying out too late and not giving a good example of leadership they are getting fined, suspended etc. If the owner/GM comes to me and ask what the hell do they think I'm doing the response should be "Well you told me to get the team more discipline and held accountable. Well I've observed when you let your top stars do anything they bloody want without consequences, others are gonna follow them. If you want these guys playing the way they are capable of you get rid of the ring leaders to the bad habits or discipline them and show them for now on we do things differently here."
Goedert Suffered a Fractured thumb. He should be in a splint and back at practice sometime next week. Sounds like from what I've read and heard with no preseason games the team is be extra cautious on any type of injuries with big named players. Plus given no games with these guys out it gives guys on the possible roster bubble more reps to fight for a spot.
Maybe off the field issues? Other then the gun thing I never heard anything. Besides Anzalone the Saints aren't known for their LB core.
After the stuff I've been hearing about him I'm glad we never drafted him. Seems like an absolute cancer that wouldn't be a fit here. He's a good player but I think a lot of people overrate ET like they do most of SEA's D players.
Without the Injuries Sweat would've been mostly likely mid 1st/early 2nd rounder. At least from what I remember from his scouting report. A few reports I read from knee injuries were a concern and his rookie deal might be his only NFL deal do to wear and tear already
The D-line is also getting a ton of praise from the beats; conversely, the O-line is getting dogged (for both their play and frequent injuries.) Our starting 5 has only had one practice together so far in camp and they ended the day giving up 3 sacks on the last 4 plays. Not a good sign.
He’s on my list but not a huge concern right now.babydemon90 said:
What happened to Perkins? Must be serious enough no other team will sign him. They really liked him too
Hope for a team has a big injury or something happen to their CBs and can trade him is all I say. Not gonna brag and say I was right about Jones but I got absolutely creamed for hating the pick of him. I had legit concerns about his achilles among other issues with the guy though. JuJu and Kamara both picked after this guy. Really depressing.
