Any word on when these guys are going to come back? I'd like to see them in some preseason action,granted their only hope at this point is against reserves.

Hogan has shown absolutely nothing since being drafted. Gettis at least had the good rookie year, but before it's all said and done both of these guys could be fighting for a roster spot.

Here's our current corners without Hogan

Gamble

Norman

Munnerlyn

Butler

Josh Thomas

Stanford

Last year when we cut down to 53 and before picking up Butler on waivers we only carried 3 corners on the active roster(Gamble,Munnerlyn,and Stanford)

Receivers without Gettis

Smith

Lafell

Murphy

Pilares

Adams

Davis

Edwards

Tutu

Last year we went into the season with with 6 receives on the active roster.

heres a link to last years final 53

amazing the difference a year makes,if we don't cut a single carryover from last years roster there will still be at least 13 new members of our final 53 and the only 1 possible downgrade would be Shockey missing.

Im hoping they play sunday, but it aint lookin good! I do think they both make the team on potential alone, they are both top three talent at their positions if they can just get healthy... Id rather have a hurt gettis on the bench then a healthy edwards or tutu sitting there.

Only thing I can find on Gettis is an early August mention of a Hammy problem....the knee is not specifically cited...but there's a lot of room for speculation there...he's mentioned as running full speed at some point, but like many have pointed out, running full speed and making sharp cuts are way different when it comes to a repaired knee.

If Gettis isn't healed by now....he may not be able to overcome the injury

Edwards and tutu combined for exactly 1 more catch and 4 more yards then gettis last year. Im keeping him over those two this year. If he cant get on the field this year next year we can move on, but not yet.

Good post & questions. I don't think they will give up on Hogan yet. I think if either, they 'could' on Gettis...IF...he is not going to be able to get on the field before October.

I think they end up carrying 5-6 CBs & 6 WRs. The 6 CBs would be if they have doubts about Hogan, otherwise 5, IMO.

I really hope we get a chance to see them in the next 2 games. Hogan has had a longtime to heal now & Gettis has had a year as well. I can see the training staff holding him out to the 1 year point as a WR, but with Hogan...there must be inflammation that will not resolve for him to be held out this long.

Yep, you are right. I remember reading about his hammy too. It is not out of the ordinary for other musculoskeletal problems to arise after extensive rehab on a repaired ACL/Achilles/Rotator Cuff, etc. I hope he can get out there soon, b/c the boys got jets. The 1 thing that has made me feel a little better tho is the play of Murphy. I love Gettis, but think Murphy will also be very good (they 'better' cut Tutu...they have given him the best chance to win the #3 WR job, but he blew it already IMO).

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By carolinanimal · Posted

      i think the difference is that we win when we minimize Bryce as part of the offense ala Trent dilfer. look at the games we win and he us always under 200 yards passing.

      Which is also why we talk about there being a lower ceiling for Bryce I think Bryce sees the game decently well already given the mess this offence has been for the better part of his career. His big WTF plays are typically him just dropping the damn ball Which leaves me wondering sometimes what does peak Bryce look like. Guys like Sam you’d watch in NY/Carolina and he’d have so many boneheaded plays that you were left thinking if he could just clean these up you’d have a solid QB. And now we’re finally seeing Sam in a good offence and he’s able to play with timing and within structure and those boneheaded plays are cut down to 2-3 times a game Bryce doesn’t have a ton of boneheaded plays (minus flat out dropping the ball) so I dunno. I think Bryce can be a solid QB. Put Bryce in Seattle or Tampa and they’re still winning a lot of games  Coaching and overall team matters so much. The only dude that I think could probably do the most with the least in this league would be Lamar

      They both struggle with that but Lawrence is a significantly better athlete and an INSANELY more physically gifted passer. He has very limited reasons to be struggling the way he has. I will say, when he came into the league I specifically remember an interview that he basically intimated that he would be okay if his life didn't involve football and I have always questioned if he was passionate enough to be elite from that moment onward.
