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

      HOF Leaks.

      By The NFL Shield At Midfield · Posted

      The Colts FO have always been a bunch of bitch-made complainers.  The basketball score football we got for a few years before two high safety coverage started shutting down the deep passing game originated with Dungy and Irsay whining to the competition committee about the Patriots manhandling Harrison and Wayne.

      HOF Leaks.

      He didn't make it for the same reason Luke didn't and the same reason Smitty never will unless they change the procedure again. This new rule of needing to get 40 of 50 votes in the final round of voting is just sooooooooooooo dumb At that point it's already down to people who should be in the HOF and all it takes is a handful of split votes to keep more than worthy players out of the HOF in any given year.  So unless there is collusion to among the voters to make sure only 9 or less people are not voting for certain players, we're going to keep seeing this happen every year, and we'll see more than worthy players never end up getting in at all. All it takes is for 20 of the 50 voters to split their vote and it keeps both players out that year.  And when that final vote is by voting for 5 guys out of 7, it's going to happen every year unless they start colluding to make sure certain guys get in when they should.
