Alfred Morris on the trade block.

I have always felt like he would be an excellent fit here, and truly feel like he would have helped our team a lot if we had picked him up last year.

He has always put up stats, and is highly underrated.

Last year, he was shelved thanks to Zeke, and the year before that the redskins thought they had a superstar in that one Matt Jones dude.

He looks like he comes on the cheap, too: "due to collect $1.2 million in the final season of the two-year, $3.5 million contract he signed last season."

What say you?

No thanks.  His numbers declined every year and behind the Cowboys line, he averaged 3.5 a carry.  The Redskins abused him and I don't want to give up any picks for him.  We can get the RB we need in the draft.

He had 69 attempts, had no chance to get in a rhythm. I'd send a 6th rounder to them for him, if we aren't shooting for a RB in the first three rounds.

Nah no thanks. Draft is deep with RBs.  Yes he's cheap but giving us a draft pick for him seems expensive. Plus I can't fathom giving a draft to those cowgirls. Fug them.  

Side note he's only 1 year younger than JStew. Idea would be to get younger. We have like the 2nd oldest roster.  Just look for a RB in the draft or FA.

    • Yeah, the first thing I thought about is why argue about "conduct detrimental to the team?" Just don't do anything stupid and you should be OK. Top and even mid tier professional athletes get a lot more leeway than regular Joes out here bustin' the pavement, and we know that if we end up on the news for negativity that we've done our there in society, our ass is gonna get canned.
    • I mean 1-6 the WR group is pretty good.  All 6 won’t see the field at the same time.  I’d say 3 WR sets or less a majority of the time if our commitment to the run game is to be believed. With that said, the o line is our strength.  Behind that we have a RB room with 2 1000 yard rushers.  Personally I think both groups are “better” at this time.  And if we’re only going 2-3 players deep the Corners have an argument for being a better unit than the WRs as we currently sit. tl;dr  Another lazy article by the world wide leader in sports…
    • Ah, I see. You're saying he's just a short game guy... but wouldn't the team still have needed a deep threat to keep those safeties from creeping down like they were when Reich/Brown had him dinking and dunking? Who from this list is preventing that from happening last season? David Moore? Then what about this season? Darius Slayton? I'm not saying that weren't better moves to have been made, but I don't think that AT is the half-in, half-out mindset as suggested. He came in under Reich, was a dependable veteran for a rookie HC that has a background with WRs, and is now set to make $2M less than the aforementioned Darius Slayton. What I am saying I guess is that when stepping back and looking at all of the available data points, the Adam Thielen signing was one of the few moves that this team has made that has worked out. Going to be fun seeing if Jimmy Horn Jr can contribute right away as that quick-twitch slot guy the team has been looking for. I don't see Thielen playing the entire season, so the sooner Jimmy picks things up the better.
