EDDS INJURES KNEE
Rookie linebacker A.J. Edds had an ice pack on one of his knees Monday, and the Dolphins fear that the injury is serious. The Dolphins had hoped Edds would play in passing situations this season. His injury leaves the team with five healthy inside linebackers -- Karlos Dansby, Channing Crowder, Tim Dobbins, Austin Spitler and J.D. Folsom.

Damn!!!!! hope its not too serious!
We could always use in ILB with good coverage skills! Heres to a speedy recovery! -
Shame - I had high hope for Edds, hope it itsn't too bad.
If it is serious then at least we have some depth at the position - losing your 4th ILB who is also a rookie isnt the end of the world. -
Well, that just sucks. Hopefully its not too serious
-
this sucks. really it does. Spitler better shape up (hasnt he been sick) at least we are deep there.....i just pray this isnt the flood gates opening.

if we're gonna get injuries please let it start and stop here
-
I'm not a huge fan of his but he wouldve helped on passing situations. Hopefully its not too serious.
-
i think Edds is going to mean more to this LB corps than some folks think -- maybe not this year, but in the future - so i hope his injury isn't serious ...
-
Typical Dolphins luck. <SIGH> Oh well lets move on and at least it happened early and we have time to make moves to recover from this.

Ugh. Bruise hopefully

Uggh
just when I was hoping we could get Crowder off the field in passing situations
they say the Dolphins seem to think it is serious but don't elaborate...wtf -

A.J. Edds believes he tore his ACL in Monday night's practice.
We're still waiting on official word from the team, but it appears Edds' rookie season is over before it really began. The fourth-round pick was making a transition from inside to outside linebacker, where he was to back up Karlos Dansby. -
****ing, ****ing, **** :angry:

Crowder is the starter
& has earned the position
playing along side of Dansby
he should have a banner year
shame about Ebb
fortunately
it was not CrowderRickyBobby likes this. -

agreed
hope they coach him up
because
it don't look good for Ebbs
maybe it isn't that bad -
What's the recovery time on ACL surgery?
-
This is bad news. We needed a solid LB who can cover, and Edds would have provided that in my opinion...
-
It's being confirmed that it's a torn ACL now.

Shades of fellow Iowa LB Chad Greenway. -
Yeah, thats a big blow. He is no slouch pick as a 4th rounder and has strong upside. I saw his interview a couple of days ago and he seems to have a good head on his shoulders, I was looking forward to seeing him on the field.
You're right Killerphins, Crowder stinks in coverage.Killerphins likes this. -
Well my damn day is ruined. :pity:
-
This hurts because the guy was a tall coverage specialist.
Fortunately, we got more athletic overall at linebacker. The situation is not as dire as it would have been last year.
Crowder has been a weak link here in the past. But reports are that he's been decent thus far in camp. And he looked to have lost a little around the belly when I saw him Saturday. -
Crap!! I am really getting sick of these injuries. This cannot continue to happen. If we can't stay healthy, we're done in our division before the season even starts.
-
Torn? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU---
-
One thing that might need reminding....
This is one injury. So far we are down a rookie reserve linebacker. That's it. It sucks but lets not go too far off the deep end just yet. ;)
This stuff happens to every team, every year. We're not alone.Frumundah Finnatic, Anonymous, late again and 4 others like this. -
