They used Gregory too much and now he's broken. The kid is a talent but he needs seasoning before we can rely on him.

I thought you were going to claim it was because he doesn't weigh enough. But I'm sure you'll get to that too.

As you can clearly see...if Gregory had more seasoning he would not have gotten hurt. He would also be delicious.

He's just not strong enough yet. His leg buckled from being out of position which comes from straining which comes from being overmatched. I said the same thing about Lawrence last year and he was out half the season as his leg buckled when he went against Tyron.

Use a guy like this and he's going to get hurt until he gets better conditioning, builds strength and yes size.

Two warnings, two injuries, yet go ahead and claim differently in the face of facts.

He's hurt, proof's in the pudding.

His grappling a bigger player toe-to-toe after having been given starters snaps to that point has nothing to do with his injury of course.

He's an undersized pass rusher, he will always be going against big ass tackles, that is his job. He did it 19 whole times. That's just under a 3rd of the defensive snaps.

His leg did not buckle it slipped and the injuries are totally different.

So... When do you think Lee will be seasoned enough to make it through the season?

At the time he was injured he was on for 21 of 38 defensive snaps. I had suggested he be treated as a backup pass-rush specialist and not a starter.

Those are nearly starting snaps and far more than the 14 Byron Jones, the other rookie, had the whole game.
