Rico Dowdle sounds like he’s gone

[Aussie Tank]

Good

[Johnstonny]

I don't think Brooks is gonna pan out...unless hes Thomas Davis....I was high on Etienne but he has hand issues... so letting Rico go we still need another in the stable.

He should be begging us to stay after that piss poor performance to close out the year 

[Cpt slay a ho]

2 things can be true, he was under utilized too much after chuba returned, too many games where we either abandoned the run or fail to ride the hot hand wether that was chuba or Rico

and we need to spend resources on defense instead of tying up more money into the offense 

I would not put much stock into brooks nor etinne

Yeah, the folks that think Brooks is going to show up be the player they saw at Texas is just wishful thinking. The truth is he may never play meaningful and impactful snaps at this level. You just can't assume anything based on those injuries.

Thanks for your service Rico, I'm sure another team will give him a nice contract.

Except his fantastic 3 game stretch, the rest of his production was good enough tonbe the number 1.

I’ll be honest, Hubbard isn’t really good at this point either.   Brooks has been hurt for 2 years and you can’t really count on him as being anything.  

Backfield is going to need some juice and an addition. 

Hubbard isn't the problem, if anything it's a lack of a legit passing game. Jonathan Brooks fell way off when Danny Dimes got hurt. When teams just continually stack the box, or simply have stout lines, you can't expect RBs to go off. 

All that being said, I wouldn't paid Chuba like that either because I see him as more average than anything special. Just another Morgan contract that looked sketchy at the time that have turned out to be relatively bad.

I wouldn’t call him a problem, but Hubbard at this stage isn’t really that good.   Really just a dude that should be part of a committee.  

Since the day we drafted Bryce, I’ve said he needs a real legit receiving RB.

We finally have a competent GM who doesn't believe in paying 2 RBs

[Wolfcop]

I was disappointed in his production after that awesome 3-game stretch. He seemed super slow hitting the hole. Let him walk.

He is directly responsible for 2 wins at least. That said, best of luck to you, sir.

He was almost responsible for at least 2 losses. We stuck with the run because we kept waiting for him to live up to his former promise. Didn't happen.

I was hoping the Asheville native would pan out and want to stay. But if he wants to go....oh well.
