    Right. Arian Foster dropped from a 1st round grade to UDFA because scouts saw the writing on the wall.

    Bigger loss than a lot of people on this thread are making this out to be.

    Really? fibula is the smallest of the shin bones... unless it's broken in like 4 pieces I don't see why it should take more than 2/3 months.

    PS That said maybe one between Fitzhugh and Cook (Safeties here for the last two training camps) gets a call. I'd love to have Cook here (currently in the UFL)

    ...John Randle, Priest Holmes, Warren Moon, "Night Train" Lane, Kurt Warner, Tony Romo, Brian Waters, etc etc.

    What's your point, man? It's the exception, not the rule.

    For an average person maybe, Leonhard has to get back to NFL shape, and it was a clean break.

    Just saw this:

    “I feel terrible for Jim but not sorry for ourselves,” said Ryan. “He’s a huge part of what we do … but guys will have to step up. We’ll be ready.”

    Ryan indicated that Eric Smith will take over at safety. Leonhard also returns punts for the Jets, a role that will likely fall to Jerricho Cotchery, according to special teams coach Mike Westhoff.

    NFL network announced broken tibia - not fibula.

    I am more worried about the PR - especially this week as today is Friday - fumbling a punt could be disastrous on Monday.

    Cotchery is returning punts. Let your fears wash away.

    Well looking back into the thread, I believe he collided with Patrick Turner in practice.

    I don't follow. It's December so even if he's only out for two months that's the season.

    Hopefully Smith can step up. Also looking forward to seeing if Lowery will get some time in that role

    Rex said Smith will start, right?

    Will Lowery be rotated in also? Is there any chance of Lowery permanently supplanting Smith as the starter alongside Pool?
