Except it’s literally not. Dowdle is on a 1 year deal and Brooks won’t play a down until 2026.

He also said day 3 pick which is likely where we’ll land on drafting one.

Care to name the other backs on our roster next year?

If we pick up a running back in the draft he will be 3rd string this year and next

Fantastic signing. I can’t believe some fools think signing a 1,000 yard rusher for 3 million is a bad move. “We can easily draft a guy in the 6th round that will be an all pro and rush for 1,500 yards on a deal that only pays 1 million!” Seems legit. This is great great great news and Bryce Young is thrilled to have two proven capable RB’s behind this line to depend on this season. 

Exactly look how long it took for chubba to develop. He would fumble KO in his rookie year.

in a historically good rb draft we are signing vets for this?  Doesnt compute

  We can still take a guy in the draft. Like 4th round or later. Somebody gonna fall. There are so many options out there.

The math doesn't really work on that.  If you need a RB, having a historically good RB draft gives you a better chance of getting one without reaching.  But it doesn't mean that you purposely go into a draft seeking that position.  We still want BPA, whatever position it is.  If we get BPA, but a bunch of the picks around it are RB, who cares?

Strong logic. Address as many needs as you can before the draft to allow BPA. Going into the draft forced to draft specific positions at specific rounds means possibly missing on some better talent. We all know this roster needs talent.

Exactly, which is why I don’t like this. Dowdle is a JAG. If he wasn’t, the Cowboys would have extended him. They are clearly going RB in the draft.

There were several RBs taken last year day 3 that would be suitable complimentary RBs to Hubbard and there will be again this year.

Oh well, at least it’s not much but it will be annoying if somehow we skip over this RB class.

They signed a RB in Javonte Wiiliams.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
