Our running game going into next season, better or worst?

Take away Cam and we had the 31st ranked rushing attack in the league, now that the draft and major free agency is over what is your confidence level in our rushing attack going into next season?

 

We lost Norwell, we didn’t add a single guard or rb of note (even though this class was stacked), Kalil is on his last lag, I don’t believe Mccaffrey nor any RB in our roster is true feature back and to top it off I think Cam will have to carry the load again.

 

On the brightside, our receivers are better which should open up things a tiny bit more, and Stewart who is a fullback at this point was a complete waste of down last season, so I think whoever takes his carries will be better. And maybe this forces Ron to turn us into a pass first team, which in today’s nfl is the smart thing to do.

I'm with sanjay's alter-ego on this one @Ace_Aladdin. I'm actually really excited about a CAP/CMC combination with a fit Samuel and Moore to fit into the screen game. If we manage to use the short passing and run game to develop deep plays - if could very efficient. Also think Moton has the potential to make us forget about Norwell quite quickly.

Tough to make this call in April when there are still several more than serviceable RBs available. 

Agreed.

1st of all CAP will have his opportunity to take the reins from Stewart.  I also think Armah might have a bigger role.  Probably fill the role Tolbert had when he was with SD.

Though the draft may have had decent players available I think we addressed our more pressing needs especially our first 4 picks.

I have been looking for a RB in the free agency market and RoaringRiot has hit it on the head. Orleans Barkwa looks to be perfect for us. In the next couple of weeks after signing him won't hurt our comp picks next year this would be a good fit.

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
