Since torn ACL rehab is usually 9 to 12 months, does anyone think Bill will keep a roster spot open for almost half the season till he returns?
 
I though I heard BP say he was expecting him back for Training Camp

Just heard on ESPN that Palmer tore both the ACL and MCL and they are expecting he back for training camp. They said it was a clean tear, so I'm guessing that has alot to do with the time table. Anyone know the status of Burnett??
 
With just an ACL tear, Burnett could see some training camp time. I bet he will be limited early, then slowly get worked into the last few preseason games.

actually 8 months would be an extremely long rehab. 4-6 months is normal. maybe he misses minicamp. but he's ready to go for TC.

9-12 is totally off.

Medicine and surgery has advanced a lot. Your recovery timeline is a bit off.
 
According to BP, Burnett should be ready for Training Camp. At least that's what I remember reading.

Now that is correct. But in fairness it was not so long ago that this injury was a full 12 months at best and usually 24 to get back fully. Isn't modern medicine wonderful?
 
Its still 9-12 months to be 100%.

In 6 months you may be getting there but it takes longer to be back.
 
Last thing Burnett needs is to miss any decent amount of training camp. We need him to contribute next season. But it appears we also have to get another quality LB in here to help as well.

I think we are going to bring in a number of LBs this off-season - I think we'll see at least 3 new LBs in here.
 
I'd like to see Abraham Brought in opposite Ware.

Kick Fujita inside. Maybe draft a Stud ILB also
