And? His timeline doesn't match that of the team. That money would have been better spent on the defense, a TE, another receiver, or a center. Another mid to late round RB pick could run well behind the Oline.

You realize what the money we paid him would get you on Defense?

maybe another DJ Wonnum.  I’ll take a RB playing at high level over that.  Especially if you intend to use him.

To all the people complaining about us resigning him. Ya'll do know this is football right? Say we let him walk and Brooks goes down are you comfortable with Sanders as you RB1? Everyone complains about our depth but complain when we build our depth. What kind of impact player are you gonna sign with that 8 million we would save?

Seems like the type of guy you want to build your culture around which we have none of. Hard worker and never hear about him being in trouble. We already said you'd have to overpay free agents to come here with how trash we are.  I was hoping we'd resign him for around 6mil a year. He got a little over 8.

Honestly, I'm not a fan of paying RBs but this isn't a bad deal. I'm not sure how this fits with Brooks coming in. Maybe Dan Morgan is trying to replicate the old 'Double Trouble' days?

It wouldn't look so bad if they didn't already have an overpaid Miles Sanders taking up $6M per on the roster.

I don't think I would've minded maybe a 2 year extension vs. the 4 year they gave him. I get it, realistically, you don't expect brooks to come in and explode on the scene. You also didn't draft brooks to be a bell-cow kind of back. I think a 2 year extension to build brooks into the lead back while also drafting chuba's replacement either 2025 or 2026 and work him in. Brooks was a sanders replacement and not a chuba replacement that much is evident.

Personally, I would have let him walk and brought in a bigger back via draft. Personally I don't like chuba and brooks being double trouble. I would prefer to pair either one with a bigger RB.

Sanders is gone next season. You draft a mid to late rounder to be your back up like every other successful franchise does.

If Brooks pans out Chuba just becomes Miles Sanders part 2.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
