Default Spence Update

Well, it's not looking too good. Keith Butter announced that Spence will not play this year, and may not be back the following year either. He also said the FO is going to give him until the 2015 season to get well. Tragic.

would of thought they would be more concerned than with the ilb depth but adding williams, and must still like Sylvester as back ups for the time being

Default Re: Spence Update

this some sad stuff right here

The more I learned about him the more I liked and not just his physical attributes.he generally loves the game and will go the extra mile to prepare so that he can maximize himself

Please let this guy have a strong comeback

They know this, but didn't address it in the draft. Reaching for a slow ILB in the 6th isn't the answer. We have one of those starting already

Respect to the FO for the way they are handling this. I hope the kid rewards their trust with a full recovery at some pont.

EDIT: or the opposite of what he ^^^^^ said.
