We will only get Campbell if the Skins release him, no way we're trading one of our only 5 picks this year to get him. We wouldn't give up a 4th for him, we don't have a 5th, and I doubt the Skins would be willing to part with him for a 6th or a 7th.

On top of all that there will be several teams out there willing to give up a 4th or 5th rounder for him.

Larry Johnson was not held back by his team, he was held back because he isn't a good running back anymore. Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles rushed for 1120 yards in 190 attempts, which is a 5.9 average.

Willie Parker has lost more than a step, and injuries will hold him down. He may rush for 800/900 yards in a starting role, but he's not even close to being an elite back.

Portis has also lost a step, and as someone already mentioned, injuries don't help.

All of these guys will be rushing behind arguably the worst offensive line in the league, too. I say they'll be lucky to finish top 20 in rushing.

i dont think it is so much what these guys can do as it is the system that shannahan brings that churns out 1000 yard backs like donuts.

Interesting to hear fans of another team's opinions on Moore.

here's a post from a guy there...

Seriously though has JC ever had a better year than McNabb?

And JC goes to a new system, new team and suddenly has a break out year?

Really? C'mon Man.

sounds familiar.............

If I was Hurney, I would wait until the draft and see what is going to be available at the selections. For example, if the Panthers are picking in the 2nd and they can already see a couple of picks before hand who is going to be available at WR then ask the question, who would be the better pick, Draft Pick WR whoever or Brandon Marshall? And no that is not as easy an answer as you may think.

Same concept can be applied at QB. If the Panthers are looking at Tony Pike in the 4th and Jason Campbell is still available, make an offer and see what happens.

To fans, Marshall and Campbell seem like better options than WR X and QB Y coming straight out of college. I'm just not sure if NFL front offices see it that way as well. But as a fan, that is how I would appoarch this draft.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
