I do really like Darrel Williams as the #2 though, if he’s healthy. I don’t think AP really fits in but possibly Lamar Miller who was released by the Patriots.

Seems really strange they’re only keeping 3 guys. They must really have a lot of faith in CEH to carry the load and stay healthy.

Devontae Freeman - played under McCullough for years
Spencer Ware- lost a step but knows the offense and is great in pass pro and in the passing game

I’ve always loved Ware but the guy just can’t stay healthy.

Freeman is interesting, I didn’t realize he was still a free agent.

Seems like there will be plenty of guys out there if they need anyone so maybe that’s why they’re not worried about only keeping 3 to start off.

Freeman isn't signed because he wants to get paid, he basically doesn't understand RB's don't get paid but he's still waiting.

Yeah I was just reading some articles from August where he said he also expects to be heavily utilized.

I think that ship has sailed buddy. You better lower your expectations or you’ll find yourself out of the league pretty quickly.

I imagine there is another Damian Williams sitting out there somewhere.

Bilal Powell also seems like a good fit with this group.

Geez, they already had Kerryon and took Swift in the 2nd. Seems like a really crowded backfield.

Peterson didn't seem to like that one bit when he was on the Saints a couple of years ago

edit: didn't realize Swifts been banged up already.

Yeah and their 3rd stringer has a minor injury too i think. Probably a temporary landing spot unless injuries linger or they cut johnson for some reason.

I'm kinda wanting Veach to poach Pittsburgh's cut Kerrith Whyte. Dude as some wheels and was productive in limited action last year and I think he'd fit well here.

ThyKingdomCome15 09-06-2020 11:24 AM

Word is he's going to DET.

Kiimo 09-06-2020 11:32 AM

Man I am not alone on wanting Swift in the draft and we totally avoided catastrophe with that one.


I have heard nothing out of camp on him. At least Taylor and Dobbins and Akers and Moss and Gibson and McFarland are all getting glowing camp reviews.
