Honestly wouldn't hurt to add him for vet min. if he's okay with not getting 15+ carries per game. He still had some juice left in the tank last year with the Cards as their feature back. Would make our HB depth amazing. Just not sure he'd be okay being the 3rd guy...

Listening to the whole interview, honestly it sounds to me like he just wants to be on a roster.

Who knows what happens if he gets here, though?

Only way I can see it working out is putting CJ at FB (which I would really like). That way we have CJ and CMC on the field at the same time with AP backing up. But I dont think he has anything left.

I can't agree with CJ at FB. The guy is an RB, not a blocker, and we just survived the Tolbertback experiment. A FB needs to block in this offense.

CJ is one of the best blockers in the backfield though. He was top 2.

He did an interview days ago and we were like the seventh team mentioned.  No hate for sharing but I'd say pass.  Would rather have Gates to give us the extra push for the super bowl while giving Thomas an extra year to learn from/over take Gates.  Olsen Gates with a budding Thomas would be the best TE group in the league.  I'm good with Anderson and McCaffrey + CAP or Hood or Barber depending on who we keep.

CJ was a 1000 rusher and among the best at blocking from the RB position.  He is our best rushing option along side CMC.  He won't be relegated to FB.  He will carry the ball a lot as well as 35-45 receptions.  We will be glad to have him.

What do you mean by relegated to FB? You say that like it's a bad thing. FBs can do what RBs can do, they're just better at blocking.

      I agree but he honestly has gotten better about this. Used to be he’d do it like 4-5 times a game, now it’s like 2-3. Overall I’m incredibly happy with his game, his D has been solid and when he is playing his role he’s a solid scorer and one of the few guys who can consistently finish at the rim and provide that threat. Plus he’s electric and LaMelo loves him. Going into the season I was sure he would just be a stop gap here but now I’m reconsidering and could see him continue to be a “core” piece here. Obviously not on the level of the other starters but he is an important cog for this team. We felt his missed presence during his and Moose’s suspensions.

      Philly will be a bigger challenge than the Knicks were IMO. George and Embiid are back, not sure about Maxey but Embiid alone is a nightmare matchup for us and Moose. We’ve never really done well against him. Celtics added Tatum but honestly not sure they’re all that much better with him right now than they were when we whooped them a few weeks ago. We should be able to at the very least split these 2, hopefully take both.
