Doom injury revealed... does this change your mind about the pass rush?

The saddest part here is we didn't have anyone else good enough to spell\replace Suggs\Doom or at least no anyone the staff trusted. So basically both our top pass rushers played most of the year with injuries. No wonder it sucked.

Suggs is superstar, game-changer, and playmaker, so it's hard to replace it like Reed and Ray.  We just need to draft better and some luck with it.

IMHO, getting rid of Doom is equivalent to getting rid of Boldin.

What if we do a one or two year extension and convert that salary to bonus?  Does that make it more appealing, at least money-wise?

Sounds like a plan.

With Doom and suring up some spots on the roster we have a chance of going places. With a rookie pass rusher, accruing rookie mistakes and the learning curve, we spiral downward and might end up 8-8 again and no playoffs for another year.

Makes it more plausible. 

Doom from two yrs ago is unreplaceable. If there's any doubt he gets back to that we move on. It's being situational that doesn't appeal to me.

If anything, at the very least, I hope he lands somewhere and gets that 100th sack. 
I know stats don't matter but they are cool sometimes.
