He started over Jordan Howard - the Chicago tuning back - at Indiana in 2013 and 2014. That’s amazing that Indiana had both those guys on the same team in college.

Peterson was on his second team in the same season. Murray and Williams signed to be backups not lead backs. Miller is pretty mediocre, I would definitely say he's not worth the contract he got. Frank Gore has aged and is past his prime. Murray has put up some decent numbers in Tennessee, but he was a stupid signing because Derrick Henry could of done the same thing. That is a pretty sad list. I wouldn't spend a dime on a free agent RB. Draft one. Murray was brought as in as a starter . They drafted Henry and was hoping for that Chris Johnson /lendall white dou . obviously Henry been amazing but if he wasn't there Murray would of had 1000 yards . he be good for us a 1 year prove it deal would be good .

He’s a free agent next year, not now. Hopefully we draft a rb this year who goes over 1000 yards this season and we don’t have to buy a running back.

Marcus21 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 There are so many quality backs in the draft....I would rather draft and develope a young guys and focus on WR in FA. Just my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus21 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Sony Micheal is my favorite back in the draft.....(for our team). He would be a perfect compliment to Perine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have put him at the top of the list, but he was not listed as a free agent to be on Spotrac. If Lesean McCoy is a free agent, thats news to me.

He would be a perfect compliment to Perine. Sony Michel is likely the best back for this offense and I would take him in the 2nd if he is available. Perine is short yardage, change of pace, rotational guy. I don't like him as a full time back. I dont think he has much vision and works best out of the option offense from Shotgun. Mixon is having much of the problem in Cincy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they got snaps they either produced as runners or receivers at times which is better than out guys have done most weeks the last 3 years. I’m not saying sign them now. I’m saying they were good signings for their teams and better then the running backs we’ve drafted and signed as UDFAs since Alfred Morris in 2012. No doubt we should draft a rb in the first 3 rounds, I’m totally on board with that and have been all year. In another thread I said you were right last year, we should have done what you wanted and traded back in round 10 to 20 spots and taken Derrick Henry, he’s breaking out and we definitely could have used him the last two seasons. You were right. They're backups at this point. We have enough back up RBs. That money needs to be allotted elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would not a boy getting those certain guys in that post except maybe Morris, but I doubt that. The guys we’d get were in the original post.

turtle28 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 I want Willie Snead signed as a FA wr this year to compete for the starting job opposite Doctson. He should be expensive, less than 2 mill a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
