Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
Sorry to read this if correct
IMO Sanders was a solid receiver who was missed when he left in free agency. But the Steelers were not going to invest long term $$$ in two receivers from the 2010 draft class after AB got his first big contract in 2012
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
seen that feel bad for the guy .... Denver has literally a 2nd round rookie and nobody else you ever heard of at wideout now
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
Injury confirmed - tough break with contract ending in 2019 for an aging WR
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
I loved when he was drafted. I wanted him to stay. Alas... Anyway.
Aside from Vontaze Burfict, I never like to hear about injuries... especially about players who I enjoyed watching play.

They'll find out how good Sutton really is now and will get reps for Hamilton. That's a positive that comes out of this for the Broncos. Sutton has gone from 3 to 2 to WR1 in a matter of weeks...lol.

I almost think he could've been close to as good as AB had he stayed in Pittsburgh. Steelers should've made more of an effort to keep him...

Agreed he was very good (had one monster year with Peyton) but Steelers were on their never ending quest to find Ben a big WR to match up with AB after AB was the member of Young Money who got paid by the Black & Gold
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
He was having a monster year this season as well...considering he was the only real receiving option for the Broncos and who was throwing to him. He'd been close to 100 and over 1000 for the season...
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
Always like Sanders, wish him a speedy recovery.
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
I’d pay to have him in a Steelers uniform as well...
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
I like Sanders, I hope he bounces back

At the time, I thought Sanders was more likely to turn out to be what AB has become. Wrong!!

I thought Sanders was really good. I liked what I saw in AB. NEVER did I think either would turn out to be what AB is...lol.
Re: Torn Achilles for Emmanuel Sanders?
I always like Sanders a very good player I hope he is able to come back and, it's too bad the Steelers did not a better effort to keep him. Like mentioned above.
