We absolutley should resign Deangelo...

after thinking it over I think we should definitely keep him..

with Steve Smith most likely gone, he becomes the most dynamic player on offense

he's not going to ask for a ton of money

when the going gets tough he's the only RB that can still churn out the yards. Stewart doesn't have much elusiveness and Goodson doesn't have all that much power.

we have a ton of cap room we can probably fit him in

he's a good teamate on a team that will need some vets to lead the way

he's still good for a few more years and he doesn't have too many NFL miles on his body

No question about it. I would rather trade Goodson. He will be good for 4-5 more years, and maybe 1-2 + if Stewart is here to offset the workload. Im not a big fan of Goodson, but what he does do is provides that change of pace. With D will and Stew you are getting alot of the same back... and even sutton for that matter. Goody is more of that slasher type. If he held on to the ball better I would say keep him.

There is no way we trade jstew. Even for the picks we'd get, it does not make sense. No rookie we draft at any position will make an impact like he does, and this is only his third year. Minus all of two training camps.

Since when does getting picks for players at a position we have decent depth not make sense.

all Stewart needs is a slight hole. Gotta give him that. I hope DWill stays but I won't lose sleep over him leaving. We got the RBs to run regardless.......we need to offense to come from somewhere else. He is the back to go if part of Double Trouble leaves.

No way we should let him walk. we need to resign him to a friendly contract and then either keep him or trade him. That way we get something for him. We have already let peppers walk for free, we need to either keep our first rounders or trade them when they still have value.

Yep.

Runningbacks are easy to find so their value is never very high. We've proved that.

He's worth more to us than anybody would be willing to give up for him.

Runningbacks usually never make it through any season healthy especially an 18 game one. It helps to have depth.

It would hurt more than it helps.

why trade any of them? even if DeAngelo got the biggest running back deal(no way that happens) it's only around $6 or $7 million a year. Stewart is locked up for a while, and I'm pretty sure Goodson is too. Jamaal Charles recently signed a contract extension worth somewhere around $30 million dollars, with $13 million guaranteed. That's nothing and he is one of the best running backs in the NFL. DeAngelo will almost certainly get less than that.

running backs go down like flies in the NFL. you absolutely have to have depth at that position. we need to keep all of our running backs. they're the only consistent thing we've got on offense.

running backs are for the most part replaceable, so you aren't going to get much in return. it wouldn't be worth letting either of them walk for a 4th round draft pick(at best.)

    • I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.  
    • Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up. 
    • I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
