Greg Jennings to have groin surgery

[lesjroza 70]

 

They say it's not season ending but it's gonna be awhile. He may not be startable again for your FF team this year

Rotoworld says surgery is scheduled for next week in Philly. You'd think a brother could get a quicker appointment, then again given that it's going to be in Philly maybe it gets rescheduled and pushed back at the last minute!

Is it safe to drop him at this point or is it worth a timetable?

I wouldn't say YOU should drop him until there is a more clear timeline but I don't see him being startable until the FF playoffs and that seems like a risky call without having a clear idea of his health,stamina,sharpness, and the GB target allocation at that point. Basically I would drop him in most of my leagues with my rosters (except dynasty) if there is another mildly interesting player on the WW but I would definitely not tell anyone else to do that without more info.

 

Plus I don't actually own him except for in 1 dynasty league I just traded AJ for him. I did know this was a possibility and I did not do it for this year.

I just moved him for Jonathan Stewart today. Tired of waiting and I need all the help I can get at RB. I've been shopping him around for 3 weeks now and that's the best I could do. With the recent news on JStew, why not?

 

Should have taken the offer from the CJnoK owner a month ago for him.

fock...there goes my season.

GB should just trade his injured self to Caro for DWILL and maybe a pick... The trade would beni both teams. And I think both player would thrive. Cam does have an arm too

[Matt Mueller 146]

Really unhappy with myself for drafting and dropping Cobb...live and learn!!

 

But at least I grabbed Jones in a league...

Why would anyone want to take on DeAngelo's ridiculous salary? Especially a team like GB that does not value a RB very much.

Congrats on nabbing Jones Mull, very smart. I wish I had seen that coming earlier because he is actually the WR who is affected the most by Jennings being out at this point. Had I picked him up in all my dynasty leagues I could be trading for Jennings on the cheap right now and know I have a 1 starter this year and likely 2 next year.

 

I was just celebrating Cobb because I am a happy owner but it looks like Cobb is good the rest of the way no matter Jennings status and Jones would take the hit should Jennings come back.

 

A couple of hours ago Rotoworld had Cobb locked in as a WR2 on the news, now they are saying WR1. By tommorrow it will be #1 WR overall.... well I can dream can't I!

 

Plus if Rotoworld says it, it's gotta happen that way!

This just in. Rotoworld reports Cobb spotted healing the sick, raising the dead and feeding the multitudes. Film at 11.

What a focking waste this idiot turned out to be. Was so happy getting him this year. Why the fock wouldn't this fool see a 'specialist' a month ago? I"ll be dropping his sorry azz tonight. Fock off

[Skinny_Bastard 154]

Cobb is going to be an absolute stud the rest of the way.

Some here saw it. The dude is Harvin 2.0 with a few more TD sprinkled in.

 

Congrats.

Traded Jennings yesterday, about an hour before all the ominous info began leaking out, for 49ers D and Lance Moore. Whew!!!!!

OK now this from Shefter

 

 

3 weeks from next tuesday so in a best case maybe he is back on the practice field Week 12. I doubt he does real work that week though

 

Can he make it back week 13, maybe, but I doubt it would be a full compliment of snaps unless he there is another injury

 

Week 14 he may be fully availble, again if all goes well. That might actually worry me a bit about counting on Jones at all for the playoffs and maybe to a lesser extent counting on Cobb to be a superstud.

 

Gotta love Fantasy Football! Very interesting

[SexyRexy 60]

i dropped him already...

 

im not dealing with the varying timetables, and all that crap...ive dealt with it for weeks now...

this could potentially water down jones and cobb just in time for the playoffs (which is essentially what you said), less than make jennings a solid option

That IS what I was trying to say but you did so much more eloquently. No wonder you so sexy...

[ZeroTolerance 582]

All I can do is shake my head...trying to keep up with a guy who spent all his auction dollars on three guys (one being Larry Fitz), then suckered someone into giving him James Jones, DeSean Jackson, and Crabtree for Larry straight up this week.

As tough as this may be to say, it might not be too crazy to trade high on Jones and Cobb right before the deadline.

"Trade high" typically means you are trading someone at their peak before they go downhill. What makes you think Cobb goes downhill??? Maybe Jones since he traditionally catches the dropsies. Cobb is a stud, dude. Trading him right now would be retarded.

Just remember you heard it here first over a week ago. Jennings surgery now delayed by " at least a few days". They are using the bad weather as an excuse but we all knew it would happen this way when it was scheduled to take place in Eagle fan territory!

I just traded for Cobb.

 

And I just traded for Jennings, to hedge.

 

Jennings is still 94% owned in CBS.

 

And the prognosis is he could be back in three to six weeks, per RW.

 

Witten had this surgery I think at the end of preseason, out August 15th or so, back for the September 5th opener. So 21 days, though he was a little behind week 1 but better week 2 and he's been a stud since.

 

My thought is that come week 13 or so if Jennings is still out there I don't want some other owner coming back and plugging him in for a good day against me.

 

On the other hand I have to carry him on my roster for at least 3 weeks, maybe 6.

 

Also come week 12 or so if news starts to percolate that he will be ready to play he will be one hot WW add then, might as well get to it now.

This is exactly what I did in a dynasty league I am in only I already had Cobb. I traded for Jennings and I didn't have to pay too much. He is 29 and unlikely to be in GB next year with a mounting injury history.

I figure I am decently covered this year but hoping/expecting he is not a factor later in the year. My guess is if anyone takes a hit it is more likely James Jones.

Next year Jennings should be somewhere else and he could be an interesting risk/reward if it ends up being Miami or Indy which both make some sense.

It's a good idea to make an inquiry if you are a James Jones owner and can afford a roster spot or especially in a dynasty, many Jennings owners are done with him.
