Joique Bell anyone?

I personally feel RB has the most questionable depth for us going into this season. I have the pleasure of watching the poo lions because I live in Michigan, and last year was not a representation of his ability, the oline was horrendous. When the oline came to play in 2014 he reminded me a lot of J Stew. He's only entering his 5th season, and he himself has made note that 3 teams have offers on the table for his services, and I wonder if we are one of them. Would you be objective to this small but could be crucial move, considering Stewarts injury history? Or are you more confident in Tolbert and CAP handling the duties if an injury (knock on wood) were to occur?

For those that haven't seen much of him, he does have some punch to his runs and decent speed.

Might be the only one here that isn't confident. Tolbert has great intangibles, and is great in a short yardage pinch. Beyond that, I don't have a ton of confidence in our run game if (hypothetically) Stew were out. In the only regular season game we lost last year, CAP was the leading rusher.

I'd be fine with bringing him in, if the price is right. It would be silly not to give him a shot if he's cheap. Just pick the best in camp.

I like him, but we've got enough competition in the RB group already. There are teams out there that could put him right into rotation, though.

Me, I just couldn't see letting one of our guys go for him. No slam on Joique, but I like who we have right now.

He's still unsigned.

There's probably a reason for that.

If he has three offers on the table as he claims he does then that reason is because he doesn't want to sign, not because no one wants him. To your point though, I'll agree that it could be because no one thinks he's worth what he thinks he's worth.

    • I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.
    • Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.
    • Only way Canales is fired is if we are attrocious everywhere....  defense /special teams and offense..  There are enough "questions" on if BY9 is the guy that ownership wouldn't fire the coach for "just" mid qb play.  Especially with as talented a roster that has played "well enough" to win some tough football games and hang in there against the top tier of the NFL ...(mostly).   Now total team suckage..yeah .. but I don't see that happening.
