Blacksheer fighting for that roster spot today! First Deuce gives him an "atta boy" for his pass protection and now a long TD catch. Love to see it. he was my new guy crush last year.

This makes me concerned over the Haynes injury, although it could be totally unrelated. LB depth has been a concern all along. Jones was mainly MLB in ATL, right?

If there was ever an injury that could get in somebody's head, that one is it.

Thankfully, never had an achilles, but of all the injuries I suffered out there, concussions bothered me the most.

It really got to me when I was playing.

yes Jones is an ILB and I would say is completely unrelated to Haynes as an edge rusher

I've always been fortunate that I never had either.  I could see concussions also being something somebody is always thinking about once they've had a bad one or more than one.

Friend of mine was an NCAA basketball referee for a long time.  His career on the court ended with an Achilles.

I mean, LaFell did bring us Oh Wee Mayne.  Which pretty much makes him second only to DJ Moore in terms of the greatest WR post 89 to date.

His poor performances and this injury might just do it for him. Atleast we’ve got options and a little bit of time to improve that position before the season starts. If our top two are healthy which is a big if, we should be ok though with JR Chinn and the rookie RW or KT playing the third and fourth DB.

I was thinking that it would allow Luvu to move outside, but I realized that I was reaching. 

Less than 2 weeks until real football!

I doubt it.  Coaches, reporters and present fans have said he has had an excellent camp so far. Him doing well has been consistent messaging during TC.

Agreed, we certainly aren't giving up on him. But worth noting he had great camp last year and then struggled in the regular season. Certainly better to hear good things than bad things during camp and I'm much more confident in this year's coaching staff, but I personally am tempering expectations for him a bit until we see the success translate to the field in games that matter, consistently.
