DeMarco Murray?

Expected to be released. Could be a solid Stew replacement and likely wouldn't be all that costly at age 30. If we don't go young in the draft again, I think Murray would complement McCaffrey very well. He's a down hill runner and all around solid player, running the ball, catching it and pass protecting. And wouldn't count in the comp. pick formula. Thoughts?

He had 1200+ yards in 2016, but had virtually the same YPC average as Stew this season at 3.6ypc (Stew at 3.4). Derrick Henry averaged 4.2ypc in the same offense while having a good chunk of his carries come in late game situations when the opponent knew they were going to be running the ball.

Could still get him and draft a rb...

Why waste the money and reps? JUST keep stew if you want a vet RB on the roster but other than that.. We can just draft a 3rd and 5th round rb.. Cmac is going to get most of the snaps anyway.. Use FA money on WR and secondary maybe a replacement for star...

no FA RBs, please....unless it's one who is still young and hasn't produced a lot but shows a lot of potential like orleans darkwa. not sure if gettleman is going to let him get away from NYG, but i think he would be a really good compliment to CMC.

    • The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.
    • Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.   
    • Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.
