RelaxImaPro 5,541 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Gettis injured before the season. In other news water is still wet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyB 43,050 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Well, I found it odd they made a point to mention he was actually much higher on the depth chart than many believed.... Ability to actually suit up probably will factor Also, don't overlook the entire camp we had....Gettis didn't impress per reports despite his ever growing fan club smith, lafell, ginn, hixon, edwards... who do you propose gets the sixth spot? or are you suggesting we just run with five?

Proudiddy 10,699 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Was just listening to the post game presser with Rivera and when asked about Gettis he said they didn't know how bad the hammy was but they'll check it out... And if it wasn't already obvious though just from a numbers standpoint, Rivera basically just confirmed Gettis is a lock, which I'm sure Bersin appreciates, lol. He said they'd check out his injury and "hopefully, it's not too bad and he won't miss much time. Maybe a week or a few weeks, but hopefully not even a week." Why would you care about a bubble guy's injury if it's over a week? He also said some very flattering things about Ginn and Hixon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRA 13,938 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 smith, lafell, ginn, hixon, edwards... who do you propose gets the sixth spot? or are you suggesting we just run with five? I think we carry 6.....6th spot is up for grabs with Gettis looking for it. 6th WR spot isn't normally about having promising talent but more who can suit up and play special teams IMO.

TheRed 20,740 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 No way we run with less than 6 wide receivers. Gettis already sealed up his spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CRA 13,938 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 so who, then, if not gettis? bersin? That is my guess. Durability also factors in. We will see. Maybe they roll with 5 and put the rest on the practice squad. Roll heavy OL until things clear up and them bring up another Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRed 20,740 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Uhh no offense to Bersin, but I just can't see him making it over Gettis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proudiddy 10,699 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Again, Rivera said they hoped to have Gettis back soon and hopefully it won't even keep him out a week. That doesn't sound like a guy that's getting cut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRA 13,938 Report post Posted August 30, 2013 Uhh no offense to Bersin, but I just can't see him making it over Gettis. B/c he doesn't have as high of a ceiling therefore isn't as sexy.... 6th WR spot isn't about playing WR....about helping in other ways. Maybe neither makes the roster.

They have has Gettis for years now....and he hasn't been in the active roster. To be fair, if he isn't on the active roster I doubt they feel anyone is going to steal him.
