Shh. Don't tell Evan Silva.
what a douche
Shh. Don't tell Evan Silva.
Meredith was a very good looking young receiver. I am quite certain if he was on New England he would have lit it up pretty good.
He got fucking injured. Badly. The Bears parted ways another team took a shot. Who knows. Nobody is right or wrong.
Sometimes I think this 12-4 thing makes people think we have this go go offense now. That was defense .. The offenses contribution was good at very short passes and very long ass drives, complimenting the defense. So far, we are still the Bears, which I by the way have no problem with.
If healthy, Cam Meredith on our team, would be a major participant.
I remember thinking that he could be done after seeing the replay of that knee injury. Brutal. Sucked for him, just as he was really coming into his own.
He was good.
Then he was injured.
Then he was not good and will never be good again.
That is a pretty common story in the NFL.
We already have guys like Wims that can't see the field and what will be a tight cap. N.O. rolled the dice on this one. Pace picked up his bet.Many of us have already eaten crow on this and to be clear I vastly overrated the value of a #2 WR (which it looks like he probably will never be again) lining up outside in this offense.
Ultimately though given the information available at the time (pre draft and pre Robinson) I still don't think the original round tender made any sense. Either you wanted him on the team or you didn't, taking a hard line stand over $1MM (the difference between the original round tender that was offered and second round tender that would have ensured he was on the team) just seemed wishy washy.
And it ended up working out great for the Bears.
And all the whining and hand wringing was for nothing.
So whatever, I eat my crow that it was complete meaningless to have a heated discussion and I overvalued Cam.
The if healthy part is what this thread is all about. I think a lot of those saying 'if healthy' are also the ones that pointed to his preseason and called bullshit on Pace. I agree that the tender was an odd one but it's possible Pace didn't want to deal with a higher possible injury settlement etc nor expected him to play much. Who knows? The net result is that Cam got more money and we got a roster spot and cap space for a healthy player. Win, win and a lose for N.O.Meredith was a very good looking young receiver. I am quite certain if he was on New England he would have lit it up pretty good.
