his last actual NFL rep was over 3 years ago. 

I would assume it takes legit time to get your body for the every down car wreck that is a NFL snap.   And it's why I would pump the breaks on Corbett being a game changer for us this week.

Who?

the RB we signed a couple weeks back.  The one who fits the mold of a Bryce Young offense.  The type we should of added this past offseason.  But given we waited so late we added an injured one that hasn't played since 2020 to try to rehab back into shape. 

but old Cohen was legit.   No telling what he looks like now.

While I agree...in that case, why sign him?

Hard to believe the play book is that deep.

Well we have to go deeper into it than we've been to really utilize him. His skillset's like CMC and our ground game been a lot of power running up the middle. So he has to get up to speed AND the offense needs to evolve a good bit. We may toss him a couple screens though.

FWIW, it could be lip service but Tarik thinks he's in the best shape of his career. That ACL is worrisome though because dude's whole thing was making fast cuts.

Because there was a time when he was pretty good, and there's a chance he could be again.

Especially considering that it was just to the practice squad, why not?

I agree with that, and I guess if the plan is to hold him there bc he's 80% done getting his body ready cool.  But if you sign a guy, and when he's needed he can't be called on I don't see the point.  His ceiling based on history (I could be wrong) is just above average.  So with that, why not just go sign another HEALTHY just above average guy lol.

Oh I definitely remember him being better than just above average. He might also be a better style fit for what we're running.

I'd add that the word "healthy" is kind of important in our backfield right now. I don't think Sanders has been healthy all season.

It's been more than a couple of weeks. It's probably about five or six now. Who knows what the hell's going on? I hope the comeback happens, and I hope that it happens successfully.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
