That sucks. Was hoping to see him get more experience this season. Man our DL is paper thin.

I hope this move helps get Dogbe into the rotation, love that kid's motor and tenacity...

Rough to enter into the offseason not knowing if we have an asset or need a full replacement.

If there was ever a kid that needed to see reps, it was Allen. NO history of injuries at BC & then he becomes a Cardinal

Well I already had us spending in FA for a DE and drafting another one in rd1 or rd2. If Dogbe and Allen both turn into studs we still needed more for depth and rotation purposes.

I do wish Allen would have gotten more experience this year.

I watched a lot of that kid when he was at BC. He really is a good player & would have helped us this year. That was a big loss to lose him for the season.

cardiac, are you talking DE, or an OLB as our big offseason need?

 

[BigRedRage]

who?

 

[Russ Smith]

wow I read like 2 days ago they were saying they hoped to get him back after the bye, that there had been some IR consideration but he'd made progress.

Weird, stinger then setback in practice now out for season.

HOpe he recovers fully he looks like a guy who can help us down the line.

Yes,

Suggs should be done after this year so an OLBer is needed and we need a difference maker at DE.

I agree but if a good DE is on the board when our pick comes..........? He's drafted over. No time to waste on waiting to see if a player develops or will be injury free or not. I like the kid, think he's gonna help us but no need for waiting around, our DL needs bodies that can stop the run & collapse the pocket.

He has a neck injury which scares me, can't take those lightly. I have no idea the severity of it but................? Stinger is one thing but causing them to shut him down for the season with 6 games left? Doesn't sound good. Neck injuries can be career ending.

Just didn’t see enough to know what they have.

Total speculation, but I suspect a disc issue.

You may very well be right? I just keep reading & hearing that it's a neck injury & that worries me.
