Time to draft a running back?

You get it. Suggesting a RB is borderline insanity. We just wasting picks if that's the case. So what do we do with Brooks when he comes back the following season?

 

Like cmon people think this stuff out.

There is absolutely no way this team should even remotely have brooks as part of any long term planning at this point.  It's a sunk cost.  Anything you can get from him down the road is a luxury.  I've got a strong feeling he's toast.  

 

As for drafting a guy the only person I would draft high would be Hampton in the 3rdish other then that just burn a 6th or 7th on someone for a back up role.

Why tho?

Why not just sign a vet RB for cheap. I can understand if we didn't have a elite RB already, but we do! If we going offense it should be WR not another backup RB.

 

Watching this football team and RB is the last thing I would think about in the draft. It's so easy to pickup a backup RB. We drafted Brooks and failed. Don't take another risk like that. There are quality RBs available in FA for dirt cheap.

Should be a latter pick and they need to be healthy. Brooks isn't anything until he can prove he is which won't be soon, he should be basically non-existent as far as planning goes. 

If it's an early pick then these people should get fired.

11 carries for 31 yards is dogshit. Draft someone in the later rounds.

You literally judged him off 1 game in which the entire team played bad.

 

Yeah continue to waste picks on a freaking RB. This is the Panthers way. 

 

Triple trouble Chuba/Scataway/Brooks.

A 6th rd pick is cheaper

My goodness!

We need more than Hubbard who's arguably a top 5 RB. So you want to spend another draft pick on yet another RB to backup a top 5 RB.

 

I don't get it. I just don't get it.

Yes. We need more than Hubbard.  Who isn’t a top 5 RB.  And go check the last draft, teams with great RBs….drafted RBs in rounds 4-5. You complete and  build backfields in the draft where it is cheap and you can find talent.  

and our PG QB that loves to play small could 100% use a recieving RB to compliment Hubbard and be there for when he eventually gets hurt

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
