Greg Little (Now Off) PUP

[Happy Panther]

A year ago we had two potential starting grade LTs in Little and Daley. Oh well.

Starting to smell like Otah and Kugbila. 

 

Otah at least had 1 dominating season.

fta it sounds like he didn't pass his physical.   i'd say good gravy, but i think greg ate all the gravy

Greg Little had potential and I don't blame Hurney nor hold him responsible because of Little's injuries. No one can predict injuries...

[Waldo]

At what point does the injury prone label apply to Little? After year 2 maybe if this keeps up?

Not a good sign when a big guy has ankle issues. That's what got him IRed last season.

Injuries happen and they are hard to predict, but the gm is ultimately responsible for everything. Good or bad.

Much ado about nothing which is par for the course around here. With no true off-season conditioning program and no workouts for months and inactivity due to Corona restrictions and gyms closed is it hard to believe some guys might report in less than football shape or need to still rehab an injury? Little was a rookie and played like one. That is why I don't like relying on rookies to start unless they truly are the best option.  Little has plenty of chance to improve and become a starter. People calling him a bust are likely premature in other areas as well.

Of course he is responsible.  He traded up to get him and lets not forget he was getting dominated before the concussions hit.

He is a complete bust, period.

Spin it how you want but showing up and promptly failing a physical is not a good sign.

It isn't a good sign but it isn't necessarily a bad one either unless we know the details. Like I said there is no reason to overdo things or make them mean more than they do. Will little news of note this kind of overreaction is to be expected I suppose.

Overreaction?  The news is what it is

I think the OL will end up this way--if we play any games---

Reed C (Shocking prediction--but Paradis sucks)

Miller G

Schofield G

Moton T

Okung T

Depth:  Daley (G/T),  Larsen (C/G), Paradis (C), Horton (G), Bowen (T,) Little (T)

Yeah, unless Paradis needed another year to fully recover from that hip surgery he looks like a huge bust of a FA signing. He didn't look NFL caliber last year.

Yep the news is what it is. Your reaction and others is what is overblown. So simple to figure out.

He didn't look good last year but given the extent of injury and the fact he was still rehabbing in training camp it was obvious he wasn't going to be great last year. I said in the off-season last year that his 3 year deal that was really closer to a 2 year deal and anything we got out of him in 2019 would be a bonus.  His technique wasn't bad but his lower body strength was terrible. Exactly what you would expect from a serious hip injury. Now if he sucks this year, then the bust label might fit.
