Skyy God is either Carrington Harrison or a massive fanboy of his. Repeating things nearly word for word that Cdot said on radio yesterday.

If you actually take a deep dive into it, RB's get paid very similar to Centers and Tight Ends...

They're basically pissed off they got passed up by WR's in the payscale, well junior the game changed.

It’s a passing league. The only RBs that are worth anything significant are the triple threat ones that can run catch and protect the ball. All at elite levels.

Austin Ekeler is bitching and he did catch 100 balls last year....the funny thing though Ekeler only got a shot because Gordon bitched about money so he was replaced...Ekeler is literally bitching about the system that gave him his chance.

Very true

I like Jerick McKinnon, BossChief.

I wonder if the Chiefs model for rb's hasnt contributed to some of this
[Reply]

Absolutely yes. Mahomes factor has trinkled down to the RB position. I absolutely think that's why.

I'm pretty sure RB is the only position where the franchise tag number has actually gone down in recent years.

Here’s a look at the franchise tag since 2013. Looks like 2017 was the high franchise tag for RBs, just over $12 million.

Hey everyone in this thread check the Pacheco thread
[Reply]

Well... Fuck.

Do it Veach!

That sucks, but doesn't move the meter for me on this topic unless we get vibes Pacheco may be actually out long term. If it's just first 6 games, the team can just lean more on CEH and McKinnon in the first part of the season, kinda like last year.
