Humble_Beast Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I think we keep Richard on a 2 year deal as a 3rd down back. Patriots used alot of RBs the past few years. I expect the top 3 to be Jacobs, Drake, and Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard is solid 3rd down scat back, a strong vet, and even can return. I don't think he will break the bank, he is a useful player. kinda Darren Sporles lite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way I go draft for a 3rd RB is if they have zero interest in resigning Jacobs and Drake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass protection Everyone is missing the point with Richard. He's made his living being an expert pass blocking back on 3rd down. He gets the occasional big play with the ball in his hands, but his impact plays come in blitz pick up and buying Carr time. You can't just draft someone younger and cheaper and replace what he brings in pass pro. In fact, most rookies can't get on the field on 3rd down because they can't pass block. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat me to it. Richard isn’t just out there on 3rd down cuz he can catch, pass pro is a very difficult thing to do and many young RBs struggle. Honestly, I think because of his smaller stature Richard’s pass protection skills are drastically overlooked. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did very well, far better then any of us every expected. I wish we could have kept him but the new regime is right to bring their guy in. I Also question how much better our Defense could have become under Gus. I feel like We were close to maxing out. His scheme is outdated and the league is moving to more 2 High Safeties and I think we’ll see more 3 safety packages in the next few years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think our personnel or lack of kinda limited what he could do on defense. He was bringing guys in from everywhere last second to fill spots. I wanted to see what he could do year 2. But it is what it is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101Raider Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Didn't want to start a new thread for this as I don't actually know if it's true... Saw a headline that we hired former Bears DC Sean Desai, but the link on the article was non-existant. Anyone in the know can confirm or deny if this is true? If true, I wonder if that could influnce Akiem Hicks. Would love to add him to the Silver and Black Edited February 4, 2022 by 101Raider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
