Breshad Perriman placed on IR 11/17/2015

[jazz1988]

Nah bob, Cruz played the whole preseason plus 3 regular season games in his rookie year.

 

Cruz did nothing in 2010 in the regular season. It basically 3 games of nothing  no tackles, no receiving yards , no kick returns or anything to the nature. He played in all of the  preseason games  but he still missed majority of his rookie season in The NFl during the regular season... The real development for a player in my opinon is the regular season so if 3 games is worth of helping Cruz have great season in his second year then I don't know what to say but ok.

Day to day smh

[JoeyFlex5]

this is a sad day... the last thing we had to be excited about is now gone. 

 

i thought the concerns were overblown and he truly was just having trouble healing, but if they think IR is necessary after all this time, then its concerning, my expectations are quite low at this point, for a raw player at a skill position, missing your entire rookie season is a serious blow

[rmw10]

Glad the saga is over with for this year.  No more questions needed on him for now.

[GhostofGrbac]

I'm mad we IRed Campanaro for him.

 

Why? I don't think Campanaro would have been able to come back from a herniated disc this season. 

 

This whole Perriman situation has been strange from the start. It sucks, but at least it's finally over for this season at least. The guy has a lot to prove next season.

I actually feel like it raises a few questions..

[LosT_in_TranSlatioN]

Well we have at least one rookie WR for next year... Yay. *sarcasm*.

I hope he turns into a competent player, but I question his ability to stay healthy if that's the case. Smh.

[Ravenseconbeast]

Meanwhile Stefon Diggs has 507 receiving yards already. I wasn't high on Diggs or BP, but one of them is atleast proving me wrong.

 

Oh...Diggs will finish the season with at least 1000 yards.   Can you believe we could've got him with our comp pick?  I mean everyone in MD knew he was a valuable player.  He was picked @ 5th round.   Unbelievable!

I say grab Chris Matthews to take his spot since he was just released from Seattle.

Sucks for Perriman but just hope he can get on the field next year.

[allblackraven]

Sigh....

 

Time to sign some cheap vets, draft Derick Henry and spend the rest of the draft picking tough defensive guys. Get back to playing Ravens football.

[jimmypowder]

Something has been off on this whole situation. It seems shady and something smells rotten. Gonna put Perriman in the back of my mind now because I expect very little going forward.[/quote

I completely agree . It's almost like maybe he told the club I'm not taking a chance this year . See y'all next year .

He will amount to nothing this kid . Someone said Kindle 2.0 . Yeah that's right .

Everybody in Maryland thought he was valuable but most teams passed him up until the fifth round. It happens  it's  nothing new and hindsight is crazy because Diggs most likely wouldn't be seeing the field as much if Charlie Johnson didn't get hurt

I don't feel like looking for a better source but they're out there.

I think the worst part for me is I really wanted to see him do well and have faith in him but he hasn't earned that right. I'd like to say he'll come back and play well but this isn't like Kevin White. Perriman was expected to return this year but White was done for the year relatively early.

I think the soft label sticks for me personally until I learn more information about this injury. This is a case where I hope the Ravens lied to us and his injury was more serious from day one. I'd rather that be true than Perriman be soft.

What would be the benefit of that? For us or the Ravens.

I don't see any reason they lied to us. I agree with you and made this point myself that I don't see why they'd lie to us or their opponents since there's no competitive advantage to hiding an injury to Perriman when no DC honestly cares about him atm since he's done nothing yet in his career--literally and figuratively.

If they lied, I'd imagine they mis-evaluated it the first time, underestimating the seriousness of the injury, and then lied to cover up their premature choice to have him try to go full speed to practice prior to the Bengals game. 

Just try to remember, the only thing we were ever told was it was a "knee sprain" and the October return for the Browns game was on track with a grade two PCL sprain, not a grade one. If it was a grade two and they missed it or misjudged it and then put him out there to try to go full speed and get reps in just warm ups, they probably don't want to show how dumb they looked for rushing their first round rookie. 

 

Just a thought.

Apparently the doctors missed something. Hopefully they've found it now. If not, this may not be over.

 

Best case scenario he would have helped win a couple games for us, yet leave us short of the playoffs.  I'm good with him resting til next year and building our draft position this year.

Well here's betting that he's soft .

I'll never forget the look on Harbaugh's face when is said it's taking much longer than normal to heal .

That look is all I need to know that I'm right .

[K-Dog]

If I ever get hurt this is the LAST place I am coming for consolement. 

[Purple Punishment]

Players miss their first season. It happens. NFL network says he's going to be having surgery??? Something was wrong that the scope didn't see

Surgery on what ? Brain , knee or hammy?

A pcl injury isn't something to mess around with or take less serious. Perriman also is not new to playing through injuries because he done it at college.  Ravens fans make the assumptions that he's soft  but don't have any piece paper or information from the doctors.

[edthehead]

Someone need to be fired for this. Did NONE of the team doctors notice that something was wrong here? I really doubt he still has the bruised knee, it's gotta be something else.

 I really think HARB, should,

 

 

     I.R ,,,, the entire medical staff,,,  

[BOLDnPurPnBlacK]

Kind of expected it. The guy hasn't even been on the practice field since July. It's unrealistic to think that he would be able to come back and contribute this year, being out this long. Probably for the best.

No sense in risking him re injuring it. Was worth it to keep him around while there was still a chance at catching the wild card.

Now that that hopes gone it's time to start making decisions with the best outcome for next year in mind.

[BOLDnPurPnBlacK]

IR wasn't more necessary today than it was yesterday or a week ago. With a chance to make the WC it was worth waiting for likely your most dangerous offensive threat to come back.

Now that there's nothing to play for there's no sense in bringing him back and taking a chance that he re injures it. He won't get any development this year that he can't get over the summer and next preseason.

Plus the team wanted to roster spot to bring in a young player they're interested in to see if he can maybe be a piece for next year.

All decisions will now be made with next year in mind. Players will be dropped and added. Arthur Browns and Butlers and Za'Darius Smith and Brent Urban type players will get many more reps to figure out what they really are in NFL games before decisions have to be made.

Perriman's a lock for the team next year. Why put him on the active roster when there are guys you're unsure about and need to evaluate?

Well, I think it's based on the perception from Harbaugh & others, such as even Joe Flacco, regarding Perriman's status and how they don't want to discuss it almost to the point of being dejected. Mind you, I don't buy the bust label, but it's a fair thing to question whether he's soft when we're told one thing (he didn't re-injure his knee) and yet he's been in hiding for months now for an injury that supposedly should've healed a while ago.

 

I'm still cheering for Perriman and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but I do think it's fair to wonder if he's soft. There's nothing wrong with that. I do think there's something wrong with calling him a bust. That's far premature.

[GrimCoconut]

I haven't seen any report saying he'll get surgery. Do you have a link? I'd like to read more on this.

[GrimCoconut]

If they lied, I'd imagine they mis-evaluated it the first time, underestimating the seriousness of the injury, and then lied to cover up their premature choice to have him try to go full speed to practice prior to the Bengals game.

Just a thought. 

It was a grade 2? Where did you read that? That would certainly explain maybe why it's taken this long. Those take longer to heal and I was under the impression it was a grade 1. Maybe you're right. I'm going to be optimistic on his future. I want him to be great. I'm not one of those people calling him a bust nor am I calling Ozzie a fool for taking him. Even if I am really disappointed in him, I'm hoping that his injury was more serious than we were originally made aware, regardless of the intent behind it. I'd rather that be true than him (Perriman) be soft. I hate soft players and that just doesn't fit with me based on what I've seen from Perriman in college. 

 

I honestly didn't think the label fit him until only now that he's on IR with no indication it was a serious injury. That's my only concern here. I'd rather he need surgery to fix something that's not healing than him be soft because you can't fix soft. You can fix ligaments. 

[GrimCoconut]

If I ever get hurt this is the LAST place I am coming for consolement. 

I certainly hope so. Then again, you're not a 1st round WR the team just drafted with a continent worth of excitement behind. That's a bit different. Some people are unnecessarily cruel, but Perriman & the team perhaps brought this on themselves to an extent due to how this injury was handled.
