Phire Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Howie Roseman has pulled off more trades than the next GM's totals doubled. Dude's a wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, take advantage of those teams who love a guy and want to get that extra year on the contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLick12 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Not really sure how to feel about this. On one hand, I think he's a more talented runner than Blount, but they really feel like two of the same. Based on his numbers this year, he doesn't seem like someone that can create if the line isn't blocking consistently, which would be the case here too. I'm not sure how his pass blocking is, but we really need an upgrade there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlesthought Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 high 2nd rounders are arguably more valuable, financial impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phire Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 oh god is it possible we trade Smallwood? Did we save his health last game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to PFF (whatever that means), he's an upgrade as a pass blocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles $5$ Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I like Ajayi a lot and I think he is going to help our offense. He is only 24 years old and doesn't have a lot of miles on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clement, Barner, and Smallwood all can catch easy passes but aren't dynamic enough. We haven't even had a check-down in our offense to any RB in over a month. None of our current backs can run routes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlesthought Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't mind the contract at all. He has the rest of this year and '18 to prove to a new staff he can be the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He carried the ball in massive amounts in college, and he fell to the 5th because of concerns about his knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can catch the ball it seems, but I don't think he's a massive upgrade over Smallwood in that regard. Certainly a better runner though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Clement got snaps last week over Smallwood, hes either cut or traded imo something was wrong when we didnt see him last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
