Byron Jones hip surgery

[RS12]

Almost seems like some of these guys are killing their trade value on purpose.

 

[Sydla]

Oh boy

No wonder the Rams destroyed us. Seems like the only people on the field healthy for us was our LB's and Jeff Heath.

Not being able to stop the run is what destroyed us.

Trade him. He and tank are in cahoots.

 

[G2]

They are saying he'll be ready for training camp.

Clearly, Captain Obvious.

What I'm saying is three DL need(s) shoulder surgery and now our main corner needed hip surgery.

So? He didnt kow he needed surgery 3 months ago? Hearing trade rumors and suddenly heeds surgery?

Actually, I'd rather have players having surgery in the off season, rather then having them not get it done. See Lawrence and his shoulder issues......​

Should be within a week of the season ending in general, not months later.

If it's hip labrum surgery - it is a long recovery.

Not necessarily. I mean, sometimes there are medical reasons why you don't want to have certain medical procedures done right after the season. Sometimes you have things like family issues or vacations or what have you, that are planned that you want to do and medical procedures basically prevent this. I mean, they have lives as well and you can't really ask them to put all that on ignore because that's why you play. You do this so you can put yourself in position to enjoy these kinds of things. To me, the important thing is to get these procedures done and be ready to play the next season. If that's no in jeopardy, I'm OK with the timing of this. JMO though.

If he's ready for TC, I don't care.

I'm not here to play doctor, and frankly, none of you should be either.

Not to mention trying a non surgical approach to see if that fixes the problem. Surgery should always be a last resort.

 

[Denim Chicken]

I can't believe he delayed his surgery and didn't have it the day after the season ended. Trade him for a second.

The problem with that is that he misses all the pre-work before TC like weights, running, and flexibility work. He comes to TC
way behind. He should have had the surgery in January if he was a team player first.

I don't see that as the case here. There is little to suggest the trade rumor thing is true with him.

Wish he had done it sooner though.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

I’m thinking CB in round 2 is a big possibility. The team seems to undervalue Lewis and I think Byron is gone after this year.

He'll be fine and starting day one.

People see "surgery" and think these players are going to be paralyzed. Calm down.
