Air cast doesn't sound like good news

Air cast isn't good, he's done for the season and potentially his career. Big men don't recover well from significant leg injuries. This team is so snake bit...

Who else do we have aside from nick?

What source stated this? He could be back in a couple of months if not sooner on a broken fibula.

Maabry should have a look as well. Jenkins needs to get out of the tub.
I like FA Corey Wooton or see if Kevin Williams is interested.

Assuming Fairley brings his A game (which he can), we should be ok. Loosing a promising rookie for 7 weeks or so won't make or break this team in 2016.

Trust and believe

That's about the dumbest statement I have read in the history of this board. Like I said, TO healed after 3 weeks and played well. He's a big man and was past 30.
Rankins will be fine.
