Ron Rivera says Daryl Williams injury

The thing that worries me about Williams injury is most of the time stability on the line is sometimes better than ability.  (except for M K he's gonna suck no matter how long he's in there)  We just need to put together some continuity so the line can gel.  These injuries set back that process considerably.

I understand that and I think Thomas will eventually acquire that skill.  I don't know if anyone noticed but Olsen seemed to be laboring before he went out.  I'm concerned that he will be limited all season and I've felt this way since training camp.  I'm hoping and I'm sure the coaches are hoping that Thomas will step up sooner rather than later.

Yes I noticed he was in pain even before, assumed it was his back. I am afraid Olsen’s aging quickly and, while still effective when he plays, his body can’t handle it anymore.

I dont know why, but in not as concerned about Olsen's injury as I am about Williams.  I feel Ian Thomas is a star in the making and that he will fill in just fine.

Agree on Thomas, but the Hope going into this year was that we'd have a really good too tight ends that with both of them. That might not happen now.

Wow that is not good news.  I really hate to say it.  I love Greg. But the next time we see him it might be in the booth. Declining an interview tells me he knows the severity. 

Hope I am wrong. 

Olsen never declines interviews. It's one of the things that the media guys love about him.

It's also why seeing him turn them down makes people think something's up.

Per a league source, Daryl Williams’ knee injury is (as Rivera mentioned) indeed different than the MCL tear and patella dislocation suffered in camp and he will get an MRI tomorrow morning to assess the actual injury and see what comes next.

      I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs

      I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6

      Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
