Had hopes for Guice and Penny in my lineup next year. Back to square one
I think he could be relevant the 2nd half. Maybe PUP or IR to start the year.

Not counting on him until the last quarter of the season, could be a blessing in disguise though. Imagine Penny not being rushed back because Carson is obviously good enough to do it on his own, then as we reach playoffs and the hawks push for #1 seed Penny comes back healthy and fresh while keeping his incredible speed, plus he has a tonne of time to study the playbook now. The hawks ride Penny and give Carson a break to rest up for the playoffs, 20-30 points each week from healthy fresh Penny running circles around banged up defenses... A boy can dream of the best case scenario

Worst case Penny falls into bad habits, gets fat, loses his speed, and follows the last couple of year of Lacy's career path

Penny was pretty fresh this year, so it may look like the last few games if that happens. He even looked good on the play he got hurt on. ACL's aren't a death blow, and look what Kupp did despite hurting himself later in the year (not as late a Penny, but still).

I do hope they don't rush him back, though. I'd like to see him miss the first 6-8 games, and get in after that, and ramp up to the last quarter of the year or so, like you said. I think Penny knows his career path is at stake in this rehab, and hopefully he uses his performance recently as motivation. He was on the right track, hiring a nutritionist etc. this year, so I expect that to continue during his rehab. I think he's seen what it takes, and hopefully he's hungry (no pun intended) to get back out there and perform at that high level again. Penny could be a league winner in redraft next year, as a WW pick up, no doubt.

Same, both were starting to look good - enjoyed watching them play this yer.

Not as concerned about Guice, but Penny looks like a wasted dynasty roster spot next year.

Wait you're not as concerned about the guy that has been on the IR 3x in his first 2 years all for knee injuries but more concerned about the guy that hit the IR for the first time since coming into the league? :wall: :wall: :wall:

Eh, maybe you're right - I was more talking about how this last injury for Guice was nowhere near as devastating as Penny's. Guice will be back to full strength way before Penny.

I bet Guice suffers a 4th injury before Penny gets healthy

It's a shame to see Penny go down as we could make the argument that he was catching up with Carson OR really making a name for himself in that offense.

Now, Penny is going to gain 500lbs like White Goodman as he recovers.

Thoughts on Rashaad Penny?

Postby Easy Breesy » Wed Apr 15, 2020 7:04 pm

What do you guys think about Penny and his future in the NFL? Do you think he bounces back and lives up to his 1st round status? Or is he likely to be a constantly injured back?

Agreed. He was breaking out. He looked super explosive, and looked like things had clicked for him after that big jump from a small school to the NFL. I would not expect anything the first half of the year, but towards the back half, he could be back to where he was.

Ive always liked him, but I feel like he's going to be another guy who never put it together for one reason or another (injuries, rbbc). I'm still holding off course but expectations are low

A zone back drafted into a power system. I never liked it from day one. They forced him to put more weight on his frame and learn power, he came away with an injury instead. I feel bad for the kid.

Could you imagine if the Seahawks were the ones to draft JT? I thought about this the other day and it makes sense. He'd fit the system perfectly and would DOMINATE with this team. Then the Seahawks could trade Penny and roll with RBBC (Carson) for a bit before making JT full time.

I'm dreaming though.
