Atlanta were tanking so didn't use him like they did earlier in the year. The idea would be to use him in short yard situations and on the goal line...nine td's for a poor team was impressive imo. [Reply]

how'd Bell work out?
And now you want Gurley.
Sure, if it was 2018.
Now?
Hard ****ing pass.
I'm merely going on TRENDS. Veach is not gonna go into the season with only Ceh and Williams as viable options...so he's either gonna sign a vet or draft one...much to your annoyance of course :-). Gurley's stats last season were good no matter how you wanna spin it..as a rotational guy how could he go wrong here? Bring him in for a medical and if things are Ok he'd be well worth a one year deal imo. [Reply]

I'm sure we will draft a guy or bring in a FA or UDFA.
If you'll remember, my argument was that the problem with our running game was the offensive line, and that it's not been the same since Morse got hurt. So no, I didn't want to take a RB early because I didn't think it was going to make a big difference with shit run blocking. We took one #32, and that's cool, but it didn't really do all that much for us did it?
Now I expect we'll continue to work on the line, and I'm sure Clyde will have a great season next year.
But I'll pass on the has-been pile. I'd rather take a flier on a later round guy, maybe small school, something like that. [Reply]
