Hubbard will have to get it together but Royce can be used in those situations. Look at it like this having multiple backs for change of pace can help ease the loss of CMC a few weeks. Look at the colts they have 4 solid back they use for different situations. The Saints did it for years. I could use other examples but all I’m getting at is the RBs we brought in all do the same things. They are more finesse back that are smaller. We need a power back. We can’t except to trick teams every week and run sweeps with Tremble. 

I appreciate backs that can do the same things--i.e., run and catch--but I don't see Freeman as a finesse back, I see him as more of a downhill one-cut power back. He's a big guy, unlike CMC and Hubbard. 

BTW, I think Gurley's knees are shot unfortunately.

9 TDs last year with a very light work load begs to differ. 

Only two of his touchdowns last year were goal line touchdowns. There’s a reason he was unsigned. Do you think he’s looking for vet minimum? Why would the Falcons choose Davis over Gurley?

What's Jim Brown up to these days? If we're going for old washed up running backs why not him?

Washed up at 27 and we have the highest paid back at 25 who has struggled to stay on the field the last two seasons with a workload that on average would lead the league in touches. There might be a lesson to be learned somewhere in there.

Real unpopular opinion.  Bring in Cam to take over Goal line work.

I love Cam, but No.

 

Its not the personnel, its the play calling.   Chuba up the gut on 4-1 when they are in goalline...its like Brady just wanted to be stopped.

    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.  
    • rippadonn likes him.  That might be a red flag.... https://x.com/rippadonn/status/2042310653176594854
