I'll say it again the injuries to Billings and WJIII hurt because it causes us to re-sign players they were meant to replace. No way they let Peko, Dre walk without knowing what they have in Billings/WJIII.
Lafell hurts only because he isn't and hasn't showed to be that good and he's taking up a roster spot while being outplayed by rookies. Injury should have been bad enough to be IR'd so that we can move on with rookies, or not hurt at all so that he can get much needed work during preseason to help with drop and mental issues that have been prevalent this offseason. Lafell has been a failure to this point if you follow Hobs and the word coming out from the offseason. But they won't give up on him.
Eifert doesn't hurt because he's a luxury at this point. He'll return and the chances of him getting injured again is high.
Whit will probably be re-singed if Ced can't prove healthy. And that's fine as he still good.
We might not need these young players with the core still here, but sooner or late they have to show they can replace those whose contracts are up or else this front office will likely end up spending money on bring back players meant to have been moved on from by now.
No need to panic right now, but these key injuries have changed future contract outcomes.
