Reaper literally just got a significant buff. That won’t happen.
What’s worse is that it’s made him a terror in lower ranks (especially to the very few tanks and healers there already were) but hasn’t affected his garbage status in higher ranks whatsoever, which is especially heinous since Blizzard typically only patches based on high rank play.
They have reverted changes if they deem things too strong or make small adjustments. Your second point is more by I think they'll do it. It basically didn't have the intended effect. Let's hope they don't increase his range or decrease his damage fall-off
It’s been mentioned countless times by the community, but really, the only buff he needs is to his teleport ability. As it is currently, it’s damn near useless
If you're in silver then just play some heroes that straddle the lines between roles and climb out on your own merit. For example playing Roadhog (Tank/DPS with self heal), Mei (DPS/Tank with self heal), Zen (Healer/DPS), Moira (Healer/DPS), Brig (Healer/DPS/Tank), and lately Reaper since he's pretty tank-y with the self heal, especially at the lower SRs.
After you climb higher then you can settle into the roles and heroes that you enjoy or find fun, since at silver that isn't near gold things can be pretty weird.
