Daryl Williams not likely to return from IR, according to Steve Reed

Sucks but not exactly surprising. Let this guy rest up and get that knee right.

I just wonder if we plan on letting him walk and see Moton as our future at RT? I wish we'd give Moton a real serious look at LT because I think there's a legit chance that we have our starting OTs for the rest of Cam's career already on the roster and that would give us some huge roster/draft freedom if that's the case.

Going to make for interesting contract negotiations.

Sucks for Daryl, but either way I think he's going to end up fetching wuite a bit less than he would've had he been able to have another healthy and good performing season. NFL teams really only have one year of perfoance to go off of and he'll be a year and two knee injuries removed from that. Not sure what his market will be, but he might be best off in the long run to bet on himself and sign a one year prove it deal and hit the market again following '19 as opposed to signing mid-level multi-year deal. Probably depends on his priorities. He can probably sign a deal that would have him set for life if he wants that or he could roll the dice and try to set himself up to sign a deal that would have his family set for generations following '19.

How sure are we that he's going to be healthy in future seasons?

I don't think that's guaranteed at this point.

Doesn't sound like any of these injuries are actually all that serious. No mention of damage to the "big stuff". ACL, patellar ligament, etc.

There's never any guarantee of health for a football player, but in terms of long-term prognosis I don't see teams devaluing him too much. I think only one year of performance and being a year removed from that will hurt his value more than injury concern.

    • I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense. 
    • No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.  
    • At this range currently he’s probably a day 3 pick, but I think he will rise to day 2.
