Weary [to IR], Salaam [knee scoped]

[Bigtinylittle]

Even though Weary and Salaam looked to be backups this year, the comments from Kubiak about them today leave me a bit uneasy. Apparently, Weary has not healed yet from his broken leg and it is starting to look to me like he may possibly be an IR candidate. Salaam's problem apparently just came up, but is more troubling to me than Weary's because I'm not sure we have any depth at LT. Kubiak announced today Salaam is having knee pain bad enough to keep him out of this week's game. Salaam sounds like a possible candidate for a scope and a few weeks recovery time. I sure hope not.

If Salaam is out for awhile, this just shows how wrong it would have been to go for a RB in the first round of the draft this year. We may not be thrilled at what we have at RB, but at least we have decent depth. One injury would not put us in the position we would be in if we lose Salaam and don't have Brown.
