I don't think a single Raider player has dropped any of their balls. that's worrisome for a group of guys in their mid 30s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't a factor in the passing game unfortunately, that's the biggest negative about him. Ajayi without the knees built for light racquetball at the Y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarCrazy2832 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I know he wasnt a fit but there had to have been a better market for him still right? He might be a 2-down back but a conditional 6th is nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see any way that the Browns move Duke now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk considering teams will spend a 3rd/4th round pick on a scat back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBreezy Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 One of the big things he’ll bring to the table is short yardage conversion. The Eagles were absolutely garbage converting third and shorts / fourth and shorts last year. We all know how much Doug Pederson likes to go for it on fourth down.

Eagles23 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Anyone got some stats on how often he faced loaded boxes due to the Bears lack of a fearful passing game over the last few years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetFancyMoses Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Another good cheap one year rental. Use him up, protect your qb and help your D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACO Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I think it is a great deal and he will likely do ,much better with the Eagles. He is not the best back and had some drop off but he can bounce back easily. They will still draft a RB so even if he doesn't they will have insurance.

skywindO2 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Seems like a steal for the Eagles and a so-so move for the Bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigsooie5 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Bears averaged 4.78 yards per play in the five most frecuently used lineups in which Howard was used In the five most frecuently used lineups in which Howard was not used, they averaged 6.8 yards per play Even more telling was in passing game, when they averaged 7 yards per pass play without Howard and 4.92 with him He is what he is, a 3.7 ypc RB.
