a big what if right here . what if henry falls to 30 do we take a shot at him? history of bama rbs are horrible but he fits our scheme big power runner 

The bad Bama history is all Richardson. Ingram has been solid, Yeldon is going to be good.. And Lacy, if he can crap out the teenager he apparently ate, is a solid. Henry doesn't scare me at all.  The most immediate impact we could get at 30 might be RB, followed by OT and CB.. This, IMO is why we need to spend FA$ on a DE first, then figure out the rest in the draft

7. Alfred Morris

2015 team: Washington Redskins

Morris is an interesting player to project. He’ll turn 28 in December, but based on his rookie season four years ago, he’s the type of player that you’d think could be a feature back for more than a few teams. The truth, however, is that he hasn’t really shown himself to be that type of player since his rookie year, with his PFF rushing grade dropping every season since then. Forcing just 15 missed tackles on 213 carries in 2015, he’s the type of player who might see a one year “prove it” type of deal to see if he can recapture that rookie form.

I get kind of a Stephen Davis vibe from Alfred Morris. Supposedly washed up Redskins back, has had some serious success, defiantly has some tread left on the tires, could be had on the cheap. Come on to Charlotte and we will ride you to a Super Bowl.

FWIW, from what I remember fantasy gurus always saying, Alfred Morris was BY FAR at his best when RG3 was playing.  Aka, zone-read, QB threat to run, yada yada.  Cousins didn't allow him the same opportunities. Also is supposedly a high character/quality guy.  I think Morris could come in and at least be a dependable, move the chains guy. 

 

May seem weird, but Morris could be a steal.

This is the type of stuff Dave Gettleman and staff look at.  Guys that will fit our scheme. 

They find us guys that may not be super productive at their last stop but have that type of play that will help our unique system.

My thoughts exactly. Anyone we get needs to fit the system. Anyone know if Morris can pass block? Haha!
