Need to add another RB or not?

With the signing of Hunt and the need for a new center, trying to build a good running game obviously.

Hunt is a road grader. Need a stout center to do the job now. Will they be looking to keep Sanders now that they are beefing up the line, or find that power back to compliment Hubbard.

Sanders ran well behind the strong Eagles line. Couldn't do shitt behind the Panthers line. They want to take the load off Young by giving him a consistent running game.

What u got?

I've been saying it since last season when we picked Bryce.  If Bryce is your QB, you need a legit receiving RB in your RB committee. 

That was a big part of his success in college.  Our new HC did it a lot in Tampa.  You can throw to Hubbard.  But Hubbard isn't a receiving RB.  And Sanders has been horrific at it in his career.   And the short pass game (RB included) is part of the modern day run game.

Either a guy like in the 4th round or wait until the market cools down and sign a guy for cheap.  Of all the holes on the roster, RB is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down the list.

the Bryce Young pass attack IMO should be priority #1.  That an easy/cheap add and part (of many) of fixing Bryce.

In the draft. I wonder what that RB class will look like in the fourth round. It's deep this year and no 1st or 2nd round premier players. The run starts in the third I think and someone will be there at top of the 4th that can help. Center and WR have become the premium spots for us. Id like to see tight end or RB in the fourth.

I'm hoping either Allen or Estime will still be there at the top of the 4th. I'd snag one of those two in a heartbeat.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
