Will DD be considered injury prone if Gilbert falls on him again?
If a player gets his leg twisted in a pile I don't view that as injury prone. Players who pull up in practice or tweak a hammy running down the field is a problem. Players who get hurt every other game are what I consider "injury prone"
It certainly feels like a few fans want every player to hit the road while making up excuses for old vets who ARE injury prone.
I wish we had that kind of depth at all of our positions.
We should all be happy that our line is intact for 2014 barring any injuries
Beachum-Foster-Pouncey-DeCastro-Gilbert
I'm pretty excited
I'm pretty excited about that line myself except for Gilbert (at his current production).
Hopefully Munchack will be able to coach Gilbert up to the point of him being a solid tackle..
With all of this being said, we will only be as good as our depth..so it will be critical to keep guys like Velasco, Wallace...
even Levi Brown if he can somehow be cut/re-signed at a reasonable salary. Guys like Brown spark my curiousity...especially with Munchak as the OL coach to refine his skill sets.

I didn't want to be a debbie downer, but Gilbert's inconsistencies worry me a bit..Ok i said it
Levi Brown should pay us to play. But I am looking forward to our O-line under Munchak. I still wonder about the dynamic between him and Velasco. If they are on good terms, it is hard to figure why he would cut his starting Center outright. If he could get just one of these two slugs (Gilbert or Adams) to play up to their supposed talent levels (i.e. Pro Bowl caliber), he will be a miracle worker.
