Daley suffered a concussion during Sunday's game against the Lions, Alaina Getzenberg of The Charlotte Observer reports.

Daley recovered a fumble in the second quarter but suffered a concussion in the process. He'll need to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before playing in another game, and his status is uncertain for a Week 12 matchup against the Vikings.”

I think we all knew it

Sh-t.

Daley is good but his body isn't holding up. I don't think you can depend on him long term.

It’s like a repeating story with any of our promising lineman. If they are solid for any real stretch it’s been all too common to get hurt shortly thereafter. It feels like the injury bug hits our oline more than any other franchise recently.

It's the story with a lot of late round picks.

I've said it before: The hardest part of the Draft isn't deciding who's good right now. The really difficult part is predicting how long they're going to be good.

People get excited when a late round pick or an undrafted free agent look great; and yeah, it's a good thing. The problem is that as often as not, it doesn't last very long.

He’s been OK. I wouldn’t say he was promising or good. He’s stepped up when we needed him but if we want a solid OL I still think, health aside, we’d need an upgrade. Health added in and he’s definitely not a long term solution.

Those 2018/2019 drafts really did kill our depth and create holes. We had 2 extra 3rds and we still ended up with Burns, Moore and meh.

My experience has been that with OL, waist benders tend to have the most head injuries.  It only makes sense.  Stick your nugget in Reggie White's face and see how long you last. 

(The reason I said that:  The RT for the Raiders last night --his father was on the practice squad for the Steelers and he told me about a scrimmage they had with Philly.  Reggie knocked him out during a drill.  He is now a preacher--like Reggie was--I told him, "Reg knocked the word of God into your head" and he said, "and knocked a lot of crap out the other end")

I'd put Daley in the range of good to sometimes approaching very good. Not great, but that's okay.

I was going to classify him as "better than Greg Little" but I realized that's way too broad a category.

He had a good start last year but got worse. He’s not above average which is good to me. Remember how good we thought Chris Clark was and even Little looked OK until he played Atlanta and looked like he wasn’t allowed to move his feet. Daley has not played well enough consistently to be considered above average. He’s potentially salvageable unlike Little. Wouldn’t surprise me if Little gets the Gaulden treatment after this year.

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
