If we resign it needs to be a short term deal.  I like him and think you need that kind of back when you need to pound the rock.  Davis was not really that kind of back he was somewhere between Foreman and McCaffrey.  I don't care about being a threat to score every time he touches the ball.  We need a chain mover to mix in.

Give him a  reasonable offer that's it.

He's  Benefiting from the best run blocking we've had in years.

Bozeman is probably the best center we've had in 4 to 5 years in the run game.

Who is this good center in the run game that we had as recently as 5 years ago that you're thinking of?

Agree with reasonable offer but no more.

Agree with the best run blocking in a long time.

I'm fine with a back that can consistently get you a first down every time they touch the ball. Backs who are a threat to score every time they touch it are extremely rare and cost too much money. Barry Sanders was the definition of threat to score every time he touched it. It did not lead the Lions to playoff success.

You are correct saying we have a good run blocking line.  That's what makes any very good backs a threat to score anytime they get the ball.  In my opinion he's worth a good contract.  Not over the top contract like a lot of teams give.  He's a very good back and deserves a reasonable payday.

      Yeah, Franklin was a good ST guy that could fill in at safety IN AN EMERGENCY. But he was still better than Scott, IMO.

      I get that, but given his college production, his actual skill set, and what he's shown in camp, he really just seems like the only way he doesn't at least play to his floor is if he can't stay healthy or he just gets a huge head and stops putting in the effort, the latter of which I don't see happening. So hopefully he stays healthy (knock on wood), but there's unfortunately no way of predicting health, you can really only predict a player not able to stay healthy if they already had problems doing so in college.

      Austin named starting center

      By Waldo · Posted

      In it self no it's not a bad thing. It becomes an issue when they brought back Austin to play on IR most of the season again. That's not a knock on Mays but the situation. It's BC at LG all over. But on the flip side that's how they were forced to go out and sign a good LG the next year.  All of the talk and hope of improvement comes down to guys like Mays taking that step. There is something developmentally going on that Im not impressed with going on with this team. Austin and Dalton were 2 guys they obviously can't lean on at this point and yet both are still here taking up space.
