Will the run game be good enough now?

So here we sit with two healthy backs and one unknown. With Rico gone and a lousy draft for backs, options are a FA signing or a less than stellar rookie pick. Without a strong running game for Young to fall back on, he will regress.

Ideas?

I think we are fine if stay healthy (big if). Chubba is proven, Etienne looked fine as a lower 2 as a rookie and will be better. If Brooks comes back as advertised that’s a very solid room

Yeah I expect a drafting or a signing. Personally hoping for a hoss that can reliably get that yard or two when everyone knows he is gonna get the ball.  We could have used that for years now.

Not if we don’t figure out this abomination of an OL out. 
 

LT: Literal Turnstile 

LG: Lewis is good

C Fortner is better at pass pro

RG: Hunt is good but coming off injury

RT: Moton is no spring chicken

Right now there is Zero tackle depth. And our backup guards are Zavala and Saahdiq Charles.

They are playing with fire sticking to the pre Icky injury strategy. It was a great plan until he went down.

    • Yes, but those guys aren't depth guard signings, they're likely going to wait and see who has injuries or players under performing and then sign there. I also think that if Ickey really is going to be able to play at some point this year, that's where our guard depth comes from.  As if he gets to the point of being active, we'd then have 3 LT's on the roster with him, Freeling, and Walker, gotta think one of them not named Freeling gets kicked inside if needed.
    • lol imagine being Hill and this is what your coach thinks about you replacing a guy giving up over 4 goals per game.
    • I don't think Tyreek is a bad player to play with on the field, for sure not in the same way that Diggs is, as he's a cancer on the field with how he acts, and wouldn't take kindly to being 2nd fiddle behind T-Mac. It's that Tyreek is just a terrible person who realistically shouldn't even be in the NFL, his insane athletic ability is why his off field transgressions have been overlooked.  If he was a WR3, no team would have kept him around, it was only that he was a 1st ballot HOF level talent that kept him around. Just zero interest in having a person like that around our young WRs, that's really all it comes down to for me with him. Again, if we were true contenders this year, that changes things and I'd rather bring in the best possible players and hope it works out.  But they're trying to build something here and to do that, you need high quality people, not just great talent.
