Hypothetical RB scenario

Lattimore has more upside to him than any 7th round draft pick with less risk IMO. Who banks on 7th rounders anyway? It's a shot in the dark. With ML at least you know the real talent he has you're just hoping the injury is healed. His knee was freshly exploded when the 9ers spent a 4th on him. A 7th is fine unless you can get him on waivers then do that.

Well that's a fuged up way of saying he ran that great kid into the ground and cost him millions.

 

I am a Gamecock fan too.  I was going to compare Spurrier to Rooster Cogburn in TRUE GRIT, when he ran that horse to death at the end to save the little girl.  I was not sure the Huddle had seen it, so I watered it down.

 

Lattimer is a great person from all I have heard, and I never liked Spurrier before he went to USC.  I can tell you that I don't get the impression that  he cares one bit about his players after they leave.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
