tbimm Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Starting to make me wonder! After coming in out of shape supposedly due to injury and off field commitments, now he's on the sidelines again. I think I may be bumping him down a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I wonder if this makes Packer fans angrier that Ted Thompson didn't draft Meachem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 The only other thing I can see that he had was a torn meniscus in 2003. The guy ranked 4th in the nation last year with 100 yards per game. Like most top WR, he set records, blah, blah, blah. Kind of premature to slap an injury tag on him IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czarina Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 My bad. I drafted him recently in a dynasty. Plan accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rattsass Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 As a Devery Henderson owner, and fan, I would just like to say that whatever happens, happens..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbimm Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 Exactly what I was thinking. Yet when drafting in the 1st round of a rookie dynasty draft isnt this exactly the kind of stuff you want to be watching out for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myhousekey Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 (edited) I heard he came back out Sunday without the sleeve on his knee and looked fine. (Had the wrap on Saturday) Edit: Sounds like he sat out the afternoon practice Sunday though with the wrap back on...no word on if he reaggravated something and that was why he sat. It's definitely concerning that he really hasn't shown us anything in camp though. On the bright side, I'm hearing nothing but great things about Devery this year so far.

myhousekey Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Ugh... http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2892754 Saints first-round draft pick Robert Meachem will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his knee Tuesday morning and will be out 3-4 weeks, sources told ESPN.com's Matt Mosley on Monday. Earlier in the day, the Saints said the wide receiver had to have his right knee examined for a potential medial meniscus problem after he missed practices Sunday and Monday. Head coach Sean Payton said after Monday's practice that the Saints knew about a possible minor meniscus problem before they drafted the former standout receiver out of Tennessee with the 27th pick overall. "We backed him off yesterday and the same way this morning," Payton said. Meachem also missed portions of rookie camp the weekend after the draft when he sprained his left ankle.

Riffraff Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Read where someone else said Meachem 2007 = Chad Jackson 2006 I'm starting to agree. Edited June 5, 2007 by Riffraff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyr0802 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Maybe there is something to this: Saints first-round pick Robert Meachem will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery on Tuesday and miss the next three-to-four weeks of offseason work. The Saints knew about the injury before drafting him and apparently hoped it would heal on its own. The surgery will set Meachem back even more in his bid to beat out Devery Henderson for a starting job. He should be ready for training camp but his chances for rookie fantasy value have diminished.

Swiss Cheezhead Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Meachem's overrated anyway -- he's simply a sideline player. I have a lot of respect for Sean Payton and his talent evaluation, but 'll respectfully disagree with him on Meachem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
