Small fine? We would lose draft picks if we played a player that wasn't clear from the concussion protocol

Seahawks, repeat offender, played Russell Wilson, their starting QB, not cleared from the protocol and got a $100,000 fine.

Can Moton really not play at RG?  Silatolu got abused by the Falcons and has not looked good this year. It's one thing to go with the vet over the rookie, but after watching film..... I really hope Moton gets some PT if Trai can't go.

I want Trai back and agree that he is a crucial cog in winning or losing.... but not at the cost of his longterm health. I want him back badly, but if he's still showing signs of brain trauma, hold off until '18.

i think its bullshit that the coaches arent even trying Moton after Amini stinking it up multiple times

Come on man... Oher never even practiced after his concussion. Trai has already practiced in full 2 days straight. Not even close to Oher at all and doesn't say anything about his career longevity.

 

And honestly, he seems extremely extremely close. If there was ever a time to break a small rule and eat the fine it's now. Trai should play, fully cleared or not.

Seahawks didn’t with Russ... only 100k fine nor the Texans with savage. 

 

Id like to see this draft pick rule you are speaking of....

It's right under the rule that suspends TD for 2 games for a helmet to helmet during a live play, but gives Gronk a 1 game for hitting a guy laying on the ground out of bounds when the play is clearly over.

Yikes, yet not surprising from you.

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
    • I’m hoping SMU messes it all up and wins out. Imagine the SEC & BI0 would crap themselves trying to “fix” the problem.
