We should say away from that. We washed ourselves away from a dude who (according to reports) didn’t show a work ethic and was a cancer in the locker room. As far as him being suspended, maybe he is, maybe he isn’t, but that’s not all bad either. Such a situation should allow for an extremely talented player to be signed at an extremely favorable price. It’s not like anyone is suggesting signing him and depending on him to fix the DL. Both @TheeRealDeal and myself both stated we’d want a pair of defensive linemen drafted in addition to signing him. He’s just one piece of the puzzle. Also, WR is a position where missing time can be an issue, especially if you haven’t worked with a QB before or much. DL isn’t like that, it’s plug and play.

We should say away from that. He’s opened the season two years in a row with a 4 game suspension. Doesn’t really make sense to give him any kind of a big deal. I dunno what kind of a deal he would get. Probably very little guaranteed money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjohnson2009 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm surprised by the amount of people touting veteran RBs. We have Chubb and Duke and can draft someone. RBs are a dime a dozen and a veteran on this team would be a waste of $$ even if it's a small amount. Look at Gus Edwards, Jaylen Samuels, Damien Williams, Josh Adams, etc. we can just grab whoever to be the 3rd RB. Bring in 2 for training camp and let them compete.

Yeah and I think Dorsey feels the same way after trading Hyde. Id expect a day 3 pick to fight for the 3rd running back spot tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I think it’s 50/50 at best that Chubb even gets a second deal here because he might be the best back in the league by then I don’t see Dorsey or DePodesta wanting to pay that much to a RB, they will just draft another one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The market for second contract running backs is never great, so it’s possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NudeTayne Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I'm really surprised Dorsey didn't grab Hunt on waivers, due to Hunt being in a rookie deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedTheClock Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I don't want Hunt. We don't need him. But can you imagine if he went to the Ravens? That would suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Chubb is going to be special, important to what we achieve and pretty hard to replace with a "next guy" unless perhaps our OL becomes much more effective run-blocking.

Kiwibrown Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I really want to see us run chubb out of less stacked boxes. Baker is guna draw so many tacklers off chubb by teams wanting 7 not 8 in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
