If they don't rush him back, then he should be ok. Hopefully Cincy sits him this week to give him more time to heal up. He should be good to go come Week 8.
Dint know enough about his particular injury to have an educated opinion, but historically, any foot injury for WR's ends up being a nagging thing until proper rest is given.
I'm thinking about trading for him but that's what I'm worried about the nagging foot injuries. I believe his injury is a toe injury and as you said treff they can be nagging for the whole season. Even with proper rest they could still be nagging.
I have AJ in my money league. Currently sitting at 5-1 with him sitting in my IR bench slot. I plan on sticking with him even though my other WR(s) are mediocre, they are doing enough to keep me winning. Sanu is good enough for me to mix n' match with my other WR(s) till he is healthy.
would you trade Maclin for him? or should I hold onto Maclin thinking he will be able to stay healthy all year? Fantasy drives me fucking crazy.... My team is sitting at 5-1 and I have put together a great team through trades smart waiver wire pickups, thanks to reading the forums here, and then trading those waiver wire guys. I've been able to get lacy, antonio brown and welker (to a lesser extent) and still keep a deep bench. I'm just thinking sell high on Maclin now or stick with Maclin since it's a contact year and he has a lot of incentives coming to him if he stays healthy.
