With the strong possibility of us keeping 2 FBs on the roster, IF it came down to the FO having to choose between Goodson and Sutton who do you think they would choose?

IMO, even though there's room to keep both, I think they would choose Goodson if they chose to keep 3 RBs because we would already have a backup FB who can also carry the ball and we have multiple return guys. All were roles Sutton played in last season. He could also take back the starting kickoff return role he had at the beginning of the season. Also if he improves on his fumbling problems from last preseason, I think he could be a much better RB than Sutton. Plus I think taking a year to learn could do him much good. Also remember that Goodson is considered to be good at receiving as well. Besides I dont think the FO would cut a draft pick from last year because that will mean they just wasted a pick when they could've drafted someone else to stay on the roster.

Goodson, I think, has a ton of potential. That being said, I think Fox is clearly going with the guys who show the work ethic and play soundly. True, maybe Goodson didn't get his chance last year, but Sutton looked really good in his fairly-limited playing time.

I have to assume we'd go with Sutton over Goodson, since the coaching staff went with him last year.

True, but I think the reason Sutton was chosen over Goodson was because he wasn't quite ready yet. This year could be the year he shows who he truely is after taking a year to learn. And I think he will impress.

Could very well be, and I hope so. I had high hopes for Goodson as a slot receiver or returner.

But that thinking of "this could be his year" has been known to burn us before. ;)

Yeah but he was still just a rookie. I think the FO would be more willing to keep their 4th round pick of 2009 who has more potential. It's low risk, high reward and dumping him would just be an embarrassment.

Goodson fumbling problem isnt blown out of proportion, its a huge problem with a run first type of team. But I do feel he should/has to be better this year with that problem. Theres no way we cut a 4th round draft pick from last year with that much talent. Goodson will eventually be good.

    • You are right. At the same time I don’t think people are watching games going come on Bryce put it on the ground or sail it OB or whatever. They just have trouble seeing him turning his 3 or four or five top games of 2025 into the weekly standard outing. Which you expect for the kind of money he will ask for (speaking for myself anyway).  
    • In terms of comparing Pickett and Young's arm talent it's basically a push at best. Pickett is sitting at 6.2 yards per pass attempt for his career while Bryce sits at 6.0 Last season Bryce was 6.3 in yards per pass attempt. Only Justin Fields Spencer Rattler (both 6.2) Kyler Murray (6.0) 41 year old Joe Flacco (6.0) 44 year old Phillip Rivers (5.9) rookie Cam Ward (5.9) and Tyrod Taylor (5.8) had less pass yards per attempt than Bryce Young in his third season as a starter. Folks going around acting as if it is beyond the pale to say Pickett might have a better arm than Young are living in an alternate reality. You can choose to not believe your own eyes after 46 games but everyone else will acknowledge reality and move forward accordingly.
    • Wayne Gretzky yesterday said he is playing as good a series as he has ever seen from a defender. I thought that was pretty high praise.
