Bring in a RB....

Sanders has a groin injury. These things can linger on and easily get tweaked. They already said that he probably won't play the rest of preseason.

Would it not behoove them to sign another back just in case. Someone who can step in and do the job if needed. Bryce needs some form of a running game to keep the opposing D honest.

If Sanders is sidelined with the groin injury, Chuba and Blackshear aren't the answer.

You saying they aren't the answer doesn't mean they aren't the answer. But let's say you're right; who are we signing that's so much better? Who is the answer?

Pass protection, audibles, route running, hands…..all things that are pretty important if you got a rookie QB.  And Miles’ history on that stuff is checkered.  I’d like to bring in a cut vet that can step in to those basics and be reliable for Bryce.   Miles’ also has a history of getting knicked up.

Reports out of camp is that Johnson and Herbert are going to get the most opportunities this year. Foreman will only serve a short yardage role.

Think he wanted more money than we were offering here.

Probably also worth noting that his running style isn't one that has a huge amount of longevity in the NFL.

Gosh, it sure would have been nice if we kept Foreman  and had him to take on the load since he wasn't expensive at all judging by what the Bears signed him for. I will probably bitch about not resigning Foreman the entire season as he belonged with us. He had all the characteristics of a Panthers redemption story cast away by another team to find success here.

    • OL then RB would make heads explode but its might not be too unlikely 
    • Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later. 
    • I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
