Blackshear isn't an every-down back. The FO doesn't believe that he is either. He's here to return punts and kicks. And Jonathon Brooks likely ain't even playing in 2025. Who is the 5th guy...?

We have two legit guys right now to carry the load. Lord forbid that either gets hurt. This is a deep draft at RB. If they want to get a UDFA, OK...but this strategy hasn't really worked over the years from what I've been looking at. Day 3 is the answer.

He doesn't need to be.  How many bottom of the depth chart are every down backs?

Pulling this from an old man memory but I think one of the three has a 1 year contract another has a bad knee. 

Yes you are correct.  Those 3 are locks for a roster spot this season. The 1 year rental gets them through this season to offset Brooks reinjury. Next season is when things get interesting in the RB room.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
