BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

[*FreeFua*]

This was more about keeping a guy around that has the right work ethic and leadership qualities than anything else

We’re legit dog poo and trying to establish some sort of identity around here. 

Like I said, sucks that Chuba plays RB because it’s not a position you invest in but you absolutely want to invest in guys like Chuba who work their asses off to improve every season

Apparently the Niners can and other teams that were already mentioned like the Cowboys and Texans could not.  The Niners also make QBs look better and WR looks better.  I mean should we wait and get a QB in the 7th because the Niners have Purdy playing well?  I'd say they are more of an outlier team when it comes to offensive positions and success.

Top 10 RBs in yards

Henry, Barkley, Jacobs, Mason, Hubbard, Conner, Kamara. Gibbs, Robinson, and Pollard.  Most of these guys are paid decent contracts with the Niners player being the outlier.  

This post is hilarious because the post right above it shows that the Niners have the most expensive running back in the league.

In a vacuum good for Chuba he earned it. 
 

In reality this just doesn’t make sense when you just spent a second round pick on the first RB selected in the draft. Selecting a RB that high and not expecting him to eventually be your starter is just bad management. 

You're making a Gross assumption.  

They aren't abeling anybody a starter. 

1st and foremost.  Depending on 1 running back and expecting to have a strong running game is foolish. Period. 

2nd. Chubby has earned his contract. 

3rd Brooks has proven what? You need multiple backs in this league. This definitely spells the end of Sanders.

why limit it to rookies?  What did chuba do his rookie year?

"Personally you could have let him walk and more then likely duplicated his overall production in the draft and just start again." This is what you said. My response is why start again? We just drafted Chubba 3 years ago, he is producing, and we got him at a good deal for right now. It also helps we have rookie RB on a rookie deal. So why would we draft another rookie? I'm confused...

So we're either paying a backup RB $10 million a year or we wasted trading up for a 2nd round pick to be the backup RB

Either way it turns out, one of them was a beyond stupid decision, just lovely.

Pure comedy gold!!! Your take, that is.

It’s the panthers so what happens next is either chuba gets hurt or brooks is so much better that all that money is riding the bench

[pantherclaw]

Whether a team is a consistent playoff team, or a team that's trying to build something, anything. A strong running game is important.

RB committees are how the league works now.  It's part of the reason they have been undervalued.  We are freaking out over a 8 million dollar a year contract. 7 years ago Stewart signed a 1 year $8 million dollar contract with us.

interesting that Panthers fans like this re-signing while mainstream (non-Panther fans) realize this is not a wise decision 

Just like Kamala was anything other than a joke.  The media worshipped her.

Hey, I'm glad for this. Chuba is the kind of guy you build a team around. We need those guys, desperately. Will he still be making less than his stablemate Miles Sanders?

 

[pantherclaw]

Not sure how anybody cab listen to the propaganda machine,  the media, and have faith IN ANYTHING they say.

The Baltimore Ravens have the top offense in the league.  The biggest reasons for that is their run game. 

Yes, were not there yet, but you can't ever expect to get anywhere if you keep taking key performances parts off the machine.

I think this past offseason was the RB market floor. Teams with run-first offenses are thriving again now that teams went small in their front 7 personnel. RB market trends back up I bet.
