No one is going to sign him before the draft.  After the draft everyone that did not get "their guy" will talk to him to see if he will take a vet min deal.  Him and Dez both got kind of pooed on being cut this late.  There will be some other cuts after the draft but to get cut 2 or 3 weeks before the draft, they are both probably going to have to wait until after the draft to sign with someone.

Makes sense. Definitely more attractive paying a guy on a rookie contract than what he will demand

He is 27. Other than that he is no different than Stew. We should stick with drafting a rb. Someone is gonna give him more money than he is worth after the draft. 

 

Depends on how much he costs. If you can get him for a few years on a decent deal then that let’s us spend draft capital on in areas we really need help at. Safety, DE, Center, maybe WR. Those are positions that are going to make or break a game for us next season. He can still play at 27 and he won’t be expected to be a full time starter.

Granted he would cost more than a drafted RB. But he is also a proven commodity that would let us inject some talent at some thin positions.

I mentioned this in one of the draft threads I think, but with last year and this year's

crop of RBs, there are going to be good ones cut to make room for rookies (and their contracts).

We may very well be able to pick up a proven vet who is talented at a low price before the season starts.  It's not a good time to be an NFL RB.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
