That sucks.  Shoulder surgery isn't good.  Those things are never quite the same.  But at least he doesn't' throw a ball for a living.

No, but he does have to throw offensive lineman and TE's around to get to the qb. It's kinda important.

Bet money it's a labrum. Very common LB injury. If he needs surgery, I'm guessing he tried to let it heal on its own and it didn't bounce back like he wanted. Shouldn't be a long term issue, especially using NFL surgeons on the team's dime

Wow. Sucks for the guy. With what we have dealt with on the Jonathan Brooks front that's the last thing we needed in the first round though. Hopefully that all works out for him.

Ideally after he had a disappointing rookie season and the Falcons trade him to us for peanuts. LOL

And this is a guy in college who would lose to TEs sometimes.

I was never high on him, but hate that injury is the reason he slid. Sucks for him.

    • Like I said, it doesn't matter how far he can or cannot throw the ball. Most (95%) of the game is played within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage anyway. Having a big arm is plus for sure but not completely necessary. Height and  weight is up there and I would argue more important than arm strength. Accuracy and being able to function under pressure is priority number 1 if you ask me.
    • A serious mid-week question:  If you were forced to pick who'll win straight-up for this week's game, who's your choice?  Carolina or Atlanta? Pros for Carolina:  finally, a home game. Carrying over some of the excitement from last week's last 5 minutes. Division rival, chip on our shoulder to prove we can win, etc.    Cons: some key injuries, XL.  And, well.... (waves hands around) all that other stuff Pros for Atlanta: uh, they won last week? (reason for the question: weekly office football pool has the matchup on the sheet and I'm debating which to go with)  
    • we have the same OLine and 2 1k rushers from last season. Is the run game bad because teams are stacking the box because there is no fear of Bryce beating them deep?
