Irv Smith meniscus surgery

[Guest]

This sucks. Get well, Irv!

In regards to the team, I know we’re “all-in” on this year but at least to date, that has not included using future draft capital to do it.

If Irv really is out all year that hurts pretty bad, but I still hope they don’t trade away early picks right now. If we start out 6-2 or something and think we can make a legit run then maybe at that time you think about it. Maybe. But right now there’s too many question marks to justify an Ertz deal.

There is not any confirmed timeline on his downtime.  The entire season is not lost because of one TE.  Conklin played quite well when called upon last year as well.  If Smith is out the entire year, then I guess we can start to worry a little.  Until then, people need to settle down.   He probably wasn't vaccinated anyway. 

I was hoping for a breakthrough season for him, still could happen, we'll wait and see how significant the repair is. 

Plus as a fan, I got a desire to see the entire offense give it a go. This'll have to wait weeks now.

Looks like Waterboy's sole purpose is to insult posters. Time to give him the NJVike treatment.

What did he say to insult someone?  Making fun of the vaccine at the end?

He edited the post in this thread. I'll quote his bull shit next time.

MAKE THE CALL: With Irv Smith Jr. injured, should the Minnesota Vikings trade for Philadelphia Eagles TE Zach Ertz? 

They're stealing my stuff again.

Football and injuries go together.  We'll see what transpires.  If he chooses the least invasive procedure, he will likely be out the entire year, but my guess is he'll want to see the field and just decide to have it mended.  I think Peterson went through something similar years back?

I was thinking about AP too....

He healed in like a week or 2??? I dont recall if it was a similar injury or not? Plus that dude healed like a transformer.

I think he was actually out for about 12 weeks.  We may be thinking of different procedures.

Adrian Peterson says he'll make return from torn meniscus vs. Indianapolis Colts (espn.com)
