We've cut him twice and likely a third time if we sign Fluker.

Right...

The question for me is, why haven't we brought him back sooner? He made a few mistakes, but he wasn't the constant turnstile, they've marching out there for the past 10 weeks. Plus his run blocking was very good.

Run blocking, there's the difference right there. Get back to a run heavy game plans. Let the maulers maul, otherwise its just a set of turnstiles outside of a kindercare facility. 

And use Blackshear as the RB2 instead of Sanders. He's just too small to ever provide any protection for Bryce. He's actually smaller than Bryce. Sheesh.

He's much better in the rushing attack than pass pro.  Pass pro is where we need an upgrade.

Are we the only team that is looking seriously at bringing in guys that have been out of the league for years? Cohen, Martinez, now Fluker.

Might as well go after Norwell, he'd probably be no worse of a G option than Jensen or McCray

I don't have that much of a problem with it once we get this far into the season.

Guys like this might not have a full year in them but sometimes they've still got enough left to play five or six games.

    • IDK how we go from good player for good player trade suggestions to dumpster fire bust for dumpster fire bust trade suggestions. Even though Coleman is better, he has a littany of motivation and discipline issues. Do we think milquetoast Dave is gonna fix that??
    • I am not worried about the contracts because any/all can be jettisoned in 2027 with minimal ramifications. I would like to land him because you rarely ever see an elite, 25 year old center hit free agency, this is a very weak center class and Mays is a bottom quarter starting center(love him as a utility IOL).  Ideally this offseason we solve center and draft a high caliber RT/LT to fill the gap for Ikey. Then next offseason, pending outcome of the rookie and Ikey's recovery you can jettison Hunt(VASTLY overpaid), make a determination on Ikey's ability to play(perhaps extend him on the franchise tag as a "prove it"), and let the Ikey/rookien situation dictate Moton. He can be extended on a LOWER cost deal or jettisoned if Ikey and the rookie can take the reigns. Either way, both OT's will need to be resolved, we need an actually starting caliber NFL center again and we need to get rid of one of these OG's. Hunt is the obvious choice as Lewis is substantially better across the board and cheaper.
    • That's not a thing. If they can't find someone, they either aren't actually trying or it's a poisonous job and no one will.  Yes, plenty of them have gone with whom they wanted already. That's not really the point of the rule. It's to force teams to provide opportunities. It has worked well because coaches that wouldn't normally be given interviews are given that experience and teams have also been impressed enough to either offer them in the future or pass positive comments along to other NFL owners/front office personnel.  Also, we are over 20 years into the Rooney Rule. This isn't some new thing teams have to navigate.
