Monty out 4-5 weeks

This is going to hurt, but I am glad it is not season-ending.

In other team news, it looks like they traded a 6th Round Pick for WR Jakeem Grant from Miami. He is a Return Specialist and will likely take over both the KR and PR duties with Herbert moving to RB2. Webster probably getting cut for his reluctance to even fair catch a ball last week like Ted Ginn did last year.

Grant also has some speed, but until they used Goodwin and Byrd, he won't be much of an option on offense, which is fine with me.

I had high hopes for him.  Saw the same thing then the near muff during the Cleveland game.   During the Detroit game and while watching Webster once again fail to make a return, my wife asked if there was any way to bring back Hester.  She’s a good fan.

Any word on what actually happened to Montys knee?  I had heard hyperextention with no structural damage.  Which if true is amazing.

Knee sprain, so hopefully it is on the lower end of the spectrum for recovery.

Considering the first impression of this injury this is about the best possible news.  Here's to hoping Williams and Herbert keep the torch lit so Monty can get fully healed up before he returns.  With his running style I don't want him back on the field with anything less than full strength in that knee.

With DM hurt, watch Nagy throw the ball 40 times a game, just saying. 

I hope not.

Against the Lions, Monty was 23-106 for 4.6 per carry, and Williams/Herbert combined for 11-62 for 5.6 per carry. If they can get to 20 carries combined, then add a few planned runs for Fields, I think they will be ok.

Passing attempts last 3 games: 17, 20, 24. 

So the sweet spot is around 25 passes and 25 rushes it seems.
