All too familiar???
 

This story and the fan comments sound all too familiar.

I think we rolled craps here...

Tension mounting with injured star safety Jairus Byrd, Bills - CBSSports.com

No need to stress until the dice come to a stop. Chill.

Agreed. This could be no more than extra caution, so as to avoid a repeat of last year. He's already been off the practice field for two seasons now. So, training camp starts and he's still a little tweaky. Why not go ahead and let him heal completely. Gives a chance to let some other guys step up (You know we need the depth), and even if Byrd is behind by the time he's fully healed, well that's better than losing him outright, again.
Couple that with the cloak-and-dagger mentality of the preseason inury reports, and this is what you have...

If he plays week one. And plays poorly for three games. And then gets re-injured....

Grab the pitchforks.

Not my money. But, at this point, they have to do everything in their power to get him healthy first. Then, maybe they can get some return on their money. The Saints have nothing to lose and atleast possibly something to gain by just allowing him to get healthy.

Yeah, that development of events wouldn't be pretty...
