Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
I REALLY hope that all the injury BS is an omen for an incredibly healthy, and successful regular season (for the few that are yet un-injured).
It's just fates way of giving us ample time to deal with the injuries during camp, rather than try to react and fill in during the regular season? OK..............good!

Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
I didn't know Marshall had a torn achilles. I also heard he broke his arm. We should have never cut him. I thought he was solid. If he's available (and he never tore his achilles), we need to get him back ASAP. Next thing we know, they'll stick Jason Taylor at linebacker (which he could play) but I want to see him as an end.

Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
Blades is having an athroscopy. Nothing serious. 2-3 weeks rest.
Of course, it does hurt his chances in his depth chart battle with Khary Campbell, but I think we'll see a lot of Blades on the field this year...he showed some talent last year.

Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
I'd definitely take Godfrey back over Marshall. Godfrey is much more solid vs. the run.

Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
Godfrey is certainly better at stuffing the run than Marshall, but, IMO, Marshall is better in pass coverage. I personally thought Marshall was a good, versatile linebacker. Additionally, Marshall is familiar with the scheme. I'd be quite happy if we signed him for depth.

Re: RI: Blades to Have Knee Surgery
LB depth needs to be addressed big time. Rocky has bad knees and is coming off an ACL tear, Marcus is injured a lot, HB had surgery today, K.Campbell has been around a while and never broken through on anything but special team, so that leaves a 32 year old Fletcher as our only truly reliable staple at this point. This makes me pretty nervous.
Godfrey, Marshall, Spikes, whoever. Sign someone.
