Any info on Pope

Pope is the kid that went off in Seattle during the preseason last year. I'm more excited about him than I was Michael. Michael is one of those guys we know what he can do but hope for more. 

 

Pope had 164 yards on 24 carries 6.8 ypc with at least 2tds last preseason. He also had a 62 yard kick return. He made big play after big play. He nearly beat out Alex Collins. He certainly outplayed him.

 

He was claimed by NYJ then shelved with an ankle injury. The Hawks got him back then cut him 6/1 after the secondary got hit this off season.  I wanted to sign him when the Hawks cut him last season.

 

Seattle is a team to watch during cuts. They loaded up on CB's and RB's.  They have Rawls Lacey Prosise Collins Davis Carson among the 9 RB's on their roster.  Pierre Desir and/or Neiko Thorpe could be cut too.

Wow... Awesome thread...

Now I get to clean this up & hand out warnings all because a promising young player got hurt & some of you can't see the line between appropriate/inappropriate & then others can't refrain from over-reacting...

Let's get it together folks, it's a long off-season...

The back & forth has been cleaned up & the inappropriate posts & responses to those posts removed...

 

The thread has been left open because Christine Michael showed promise & it is unfortunate that his campaign to make this year's roster was cut short, all of which, are facts that can warrant legitimate discussion. However, lets try to keep that discussion civil...

Does anyone know what the injury was? ACL? Concussion? Broken leg? What?

And the 2017 season has officially started.....  not even in pads yet..  not the way Colts needed to start..

 

While I understand true injuries occur, the cynical part of me gets suspicious at times when a player sustains a season ending type of injury in OTA's, with no contact and no pads involved. 

 

Skeptic in me says player had a previous injury that he could conceal and rather than fail a physical and get labeled with NFI (non football injury) he gets signed, tries to execute on his injury and and it mysteriously manifests, or gets aggravated further while under contract. Possibly paid for getting themselves hurt in the off-season...

 

Hmmmph...

    • McConkey has knee issues that will probably remove him from the Colts board there. 
    • I just knew there was going to be a run on WRs later in the first.   welp, hoping we trade up for either AD (character concerns and all) or Troy Franklin.   there is no way we can leave this draft not drafting some type of burner in this deep WR draft.     Welp, can’t be too mad.  We can’t pick ‘em all and I’m ok with who we picked.  
    • I haven't paid much attention to the draft and looking OR making mocks 'cause with Ballard you usually will be disappointed...... like most on this Forum are tonight. Lol   But I wasn't surprised by a defensive linemen being picked. I didn't think he would go CB or trade up for a elite receiver or Bowers would fall to 15. And honestly I know noting about Latu  except a few highlights I seen switching from the draft and Yankee game.  I liked the highlights but not crazy about the conference he played in and  his medical history.   I was hoping for Bowers but not surprised he's not a colt especially when Denver chose the last QB and the raiders were right behind them. I heard the raiders liked Bowers and with no QB left to possibly sway them I had a feeling they would grab him. We all know it was unlikely Ballard would trade up for him(even if he had him high on his board?)   Kudos for the bears getting a great prospect, I hope they don't mess him up.  And to the Patriots for getting imo the second best QB. The Falcons getting Pence for life after Cousins(which may be sooner than later) I think was a good move.     
    • I mean, i kinda ma because in year 4 Trey had 13.5 sacks and probably way more pressures than paye has had in year 4.  Paye has one more year to show he can be the pass rusher we need.     and only reason why Trey was being compared to Paye is because someone else brought him.  There is honestly no comparison when it comes to their year 4s
    • 5 best remaining WR’s according to PFF   WR ADONAI MITCHELL, TEXAS. Mitchell's fluidity and size make him a tough matchup for anyone, especially in the red zone. ...  WR TROY FRANKLIN, OREGON. ...  WR LADD MCCONKEY, GEORGIA. ...  WR KEON COLEMAN, FLORIDA STATE. ...  WR ROMAN WILSON, MICHIGAN.
