Carlos Hyde?

[micnificent28]

Has played most of his career on a horrible San Fran offense. He is a hammer and I think better days could be ahead for him. The question is what would he command in free agency and could we afford it? I think he is as good a option as any back not Barkley in this class. Thoughts?

I love Hyde, but with our cap space, it makes much more sense to draft a #2 RB on day 2 than spend on one in FA.

If we make a signing of that level it better help one of our lines or else be a WR

[juliosantos]

best bet is go rb in the draft its a deep draft class

[DaveThePanther2008]

I think he would be a perfect bruiser teamed with CMC.  The issue is, he'll want big bucks.  

If he and his agent were reasonable I would be happier with a proven commodity, especially since we let Stewart go.

Working in our favor is RBs don't command top dollar like they used to do.

[Palmetto]

Yes.  for big money no

[hepcat]

Nah he’s injury prone and probably too expensive 

[RumHam]

Isiah Crowell. If we draft a RB in the first two rounds i'm losing my poo. Then again depends on what we do in FA. I think secondary and DE in the first two rounds would be more important. We still have CAP. why draft another running back if we did the same thing three years ago?

[MountaineerChemist10]

Ya know, I had the exact same thought yesterday. He's got muscle and can catch too, problem is he knows it and will ask for a good amount of money. Unless we decide to make more room, go G-man style & release veterans like the Kalil brothers and/or TD, it won't happen. Good thinking though

[imminent rogaine]

Way too valuable for us. maybe if we had no RB at all it would make sense.  Colts would be a perfect place for him.

[Ace_Aladdin]

Rather have Nick Chubb or another younger RB from the draft.

I like Jeremy Hill as a better value signing... can prob get em cheaper than Hyde and they’re pretty identical (same 40 time and both drafted in 2014). Feel like cincy had a shitty offensive line and he’d flourish with the run/pass option that Cam presents. I still think we draft a rb in the 3rd/4th and then we’re probably set for the next couple years with CMC’s versatility as well.

[JB82887]

It seems impossible he is only 2 years and change younger than Stewart

[SOJA]

he's going to require a big payday, but some team will get a great player with him

[ncfan]

Dudes made of glass (only time he's played a full season was his rookie year), hard pass

Jeremy Hill instead- a hammer thats a good complimentary RB to CMC
