RIP to those who drafted him.

ETA: IR with a chance to return in 8-12 weeks if the Cards haven't stared the year 1-9.

From rotoworld:
quote:

Speaking Monday, Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said David Johnson is seeking a second opinion on his wrist injury, but that his current prognosis is the same as T.J. Logan's, who is on injured reserve with a wrist issue.

Arians called Johnson's wrist "dislocated." ESPN's Adam Schefter has pegged Johnson's two possible timelines as 2-4 weeks or 3-4 months. 3-4 months is what Logan was saddled with when he went down in early August. We will get final word some time in the next 24 hours. What's clear is that Johnson shouldn't be in Week 2 lineups.

Dislocated wrist and surgery was recommended. He's getting a 2nd opinion, but that's a 14-16 week recovery.

Pretty much the rest of the year for everyone who drafted him.

I don't own DJ

They are calling it 12 weeks. 1 week has been played. So that wouldn't be the season if my math is correct

12 is the best case with 16 the worst.

You might be able to survive a loss of this magnitude in a traditional draft (I lost the 3rd pick LY in a league and won) but in an auction, you're fricked.

Looks like most of the year.

Tough spot if you own him. You could throw him on the bench (or IR if you have it) and hold hoping he's back for the playoffs. But if you drafted him it means you had the 1 or 2 pick, so your surrounding talent isn't as good.

Might be worth trying to trade him now. You might be able to convince someone to give up someone valuable for the opportunity to have DJ for the end of the year/playoffs.

On the flip side, if you don't own him, it might be worth trying to target him and stashing him if you have the depth to shoulder it - with the hopes that he'll be back late in the year to win you the ship.

Just some things to think about.

Not really. A return to W13-W17?

Let's just call it for the year. This is fantasy football, not the Arizona Cardinals fan board.
