If you want to learn a lesson, don’t pick guys in a contract year who are unhappy about not getting an extension. Same lesson I was thinking about earlier today as I was contemplating his situation. Runners up were don’t draft players on a team run by Matt Patricia, and don’t draft any Lions. Edited November 13, 2020 by vikesrube 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously there are some cases where you can draft guys who only have one year remaining, but it was pretty clear Golloday wasn’t happy. Mixon, Cook and Kamara were on my do not draft list until they got extended before the season started. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Martinlongbow 57 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Golladay contract was look like it was happening but something went off, possibly golladay asking more than offered. And the lions backed out. I dont see it happening now and possibly thinking franchise tag him next year and golladay asking a long term contract with a new team Edited November 13, 2020 by Martinlongbow Link to post Share on other sites

If the injury is fake then wouldn’t that make this play fake? I just can’t see that. http://www.instagram.com/p/CHF2GRGDGoB/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites

If it’s a soft tissue injury like that, could make sense that it’s difficult to place a timetable. Link to post Share on other sites

This is why I can't wrap my head around the "he is not injured" approach. I can't see any pro athlete with any sort of competitive spirit go through that kind of act.

Could the contract situation play into if he comes back before he’s 100% or not? Yes. But IMO he’s not ready physically yet. It’s just a shame that Patricia is a wannabe Belicheck when it comes to injury ambiguity. Link to post Share on other sites

I can see him wanting to err on the side of caution, and not play until he is absolutely 100%. He has proven everything he needs to to any potential suitor in free agency, man is not going to risk his health for an org that has remained somewhat unwilling to pay him and has a clouded history with it's former star receiver when it comes to money. As much as I love Golladay, this makes him a sell for me. There's too much uncertainty here on the timetable, and the contract situation is just another big ? that can affect his timetable or usage towards the end of the season. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
LionKid90 426 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 He is definitely injured. If a guy were truly holding out and refusing to play, why would the coaches have him around at practice? Guys who hold out usually are kept away from the team. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

He's coming off the worst season in his career and has likely cost himself millions. The only thing he's proven is that he's injury prone and that he might be past his prime 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Probably the reason that lions are not giving him an offer. At this stage he is hoping for a change at lions management and getting tagged Edited November 13, 2020 by Martinlongbow Link to post Share on other sites
LSUtiger 238 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Below is an excerpt from the Athletic’s week 10 injury mailbag. Makes him more or less useless for at least another 2-3 weeks, which sucks. “ The algorithm is showing a four-week Optimal Recovery Time for a grade 2 (moderate) hip strain. Hip injuries are tough on wide receivers because it affects their route running and physicality. If they can’t open up their hips it makes it tough to effectively and safely move their body to run a route or catch a pass. And then every time they take a hit or fall they are at risk of an aggravation. If Golladay returns next week this could be one of those hip problems that nags throughout the rest of the season. Right now, Golladay comes with a High Injury Risk (26%) and a Below Average HPF (51%). These numbers will slowly improve in the coming weeks, but I don’t expect Golladay to be very effective until December.” Link to post Share on other sites
