They might as well sign me if they're considering Chris Ivory. We'd both be equally productive in the 2018 season and I'd be willing to take less money.

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I suppose the silver lining would be that I like Chris Ivory’s running style?? Dude runs like his arse is on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think there's better and younger power backs out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I wasn’t clear with that last post, I have zero interest in Chris Ivory. I like his running style, yes, but I’d prefer they find someone with a similar running style in the 2nd-4th rounds, not sign his geriatric azz.

bruceb Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I think that we picked a bad year to have a lot of money to spend in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we don't really need to be throwing money around this off-season. I'd be fine playing it safe and only really targeting 2-3 high level guys and then adding some depth.

I don't want to be filling up our roster with a bunch of Chris Ivory type players even if they're relatively inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do if they only have 3 scatbacks on their roster. Barkley can run with power on occasion, but this isn't why you draft him. Plus if he goes down, we will have Duke Johnson and Matt Dayes trying to slam it into the endzone around the goal line. Doesn't sound like a great plan.

I do think we deff need to get another back because if our rookie starter were to go down Duke and Hayes would be a bad combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
