[quote=rich72 post_id=1290703]My question is why didnt they know he needed surgery last year? Does he have a doctor? This is some BS.[/quote]Question #1 - he had surgery last year
Question #2- see question #1

[quote=BoKnows81 post_id=1290738]To be fair, the guy played 5 games for us so far and will likely miss this season so what are we actually replacing?[/quote]Let’s not act like the guys a scrub

If Wilkins is healthy he is top tier if not no free agent is coming in to do anything special so might aswell develop the young guys

This is about availability, not ability. We can't "replace" something that never was. For all we know, he could of been one of those infamous free agents that signs with a new team and shits the bed.

Let’s hope he is back & healthy

And the talent is there as well, so we just hope the boot was precautionary and the rehab from the surgery goes well. Even if he misses camp there is a decent chance he can play at some point next year. If not, the contract does let us out of it in 2016.

Seems like a lot of smoke concerning Wilkins needing another surgery and missing the whole season. I’m not blaming TT for this, as he had not been missing many games prior to 2024. Just Raiders fortunes these days it seems.

Carroll let the cat out of the bag a while ago that the outlook for Wilkins was bleak with his “difficult recovery “ and “challenging” comments so this isn’t really surprising. Hopefully there’s a breakthrough over the next few months and he can get on the field but it’s not looking promising.

Confirmed today he's back in a boot.

Maybe he’ll be ready just in time for our deep playoff run

[quote=BoJacksonRules post_id=1290754]Maybe he’ll be ready just in time for our deep playoff run [/quote]He'll be in his late 80's by then and way past his prime.

Maybe one of our writers can figure out whats going on instead of just going by IG pics.
