I am with you. I think in all honesty it really is kind of getting lucky to some point. The coaches, the medical staff, etc are all doing their due diligence but probably never know with certainty how the injury wil respond once you're making athletic moves like these guys make.

That said I would like to suggest one method I think could pay dividends.

Best of three Rochambeau. It's science. 80% of the time it works 100% of the time.

Well... we DID win BIG with Brees, didn't we?

And Meredith produced while on the field, unlike the others mentioned. I wish we had him now. At least you can depend upon him catching the ball when open, unlike what we have been seeing lately with some of our other WR's.

Dolphins still regretting that. Vilma too, right? Was Vilma hurt or am I crazy

All I know is every attempt we made this past offseason and in season to upgrade the WR position and create depth has failed for us. We sure could use a healthy Meredith or Bryant right now.

We really need this guy on the field.

Meridith would have about as much impact now as he did then which isn’t much at all. Kirkwood is doing better than he could. He would just be inactive.

Coming off of the injury that Cam M had I think he'll get his opportunity in training camp next season. What he does with it will play itself out.

The way things happened this season leads me to believe that he wasn't as healthy as he could have been. Sometimes players need a couple of seasons to get past the type of injury (tore ligaments in his ACL & MCL) that he had. I just don't understand why there is a need to dump on the guy.

Case in point --- > Teddy Bridgewater.

CM becoming a solid number 2 would do nothing but help us so I am all for it. Just like being wrong about Rankins has done nothing but help us and I was glad to be wrong. Hope it works out. If it does then it does nothing but help us. If not it sucks, but it SP will release him
