Bring in a RB....

Hunt is out there

Gosh, it sure would have been nice if we kept Foreman  and had him to take on the load since he wasn't expensive at all judging by what the Bears signed him for. I will probably bitch about not resigning Foreman the entire season as he belonged with us. He had all the characteristics of a Panthers redemption story cast away by another team to find success here.

Sounds like he was the reason he didn't come back. 

 

I'm not against any roster improvements but not sure why it's a notable need at this point.

RB is one of those positions where you can score off other teams cuts so no rush.

Jets probably scrap Zonovan or MAYBE Carter honestly.

I'm alright with the depth we have at RB.

Something wrong with having them both at their prices they settled on? We have pretty much nothing outside of Sanders.

I don't believe that both would have signed here for a combined $4.555M knowing that they'd be splitting carries. That does nothing for their value besides tank it.

Then there's the fact that Miles Sanders fits Reich's predominantly zone run system that likes to stress the edges. If it was going to be focused on running power then I'd take Foreman all day over Sanders at $2M. Heck, I'd still take Foreman for $2M in a predominantly zone scheme but with Sanders' ability as a receiver out of the backfield (which Bryce depended on with Gibbs back in Bama) and being better at stressing the edge I can't be mad at the current RB room.

You are probably right in that they both would not have wanted to sign here and split carries. In a perfect world it would be nice but I see where you are coming from in that it tanks their own unique values for the future.

Now if Leonard Fournette wants to sign for $2M to just be the power back......

But then that means cutting depth in a position of need like OL, DB, DL, or EDGE

Issue DUECE STALEY a helmet. See if he can back up any of that trashing that he does.

I would damn sure take him! What about just not signing another WR since Byrd is out and signing Fournette?

He was pretty tough back when he did play especially in college. Didnt follow him in the NFL much though

They already picked up a camp body CB since Mabin and one of the other CBs are hurt.

I think that they roll with Hubbard/Blackshear/Brown and if there's concerns with Chuba then they might start kicking tires.
