What about Michael Turner?

[Nation]

Steven Jackson will be voiding a $7m option year to become a free agent. I wouldn't pay him that over 3 years at this point.

Lard butt is one of the most overrated RBs of the last 10 yrs.

[kristie]

turner was OK.

He's actually been one of the more productive RBs over the last 5 years.......until this year pretty much.

[burmafrd]

like clockwork whenever a washed up player gets cut someone here wants him to be a Cowboy.

[ghst187]

this past year he ran like he was in concrete boots running through molasses. He's done, just like most RBs when they hit their 30s. Much easier and cheaper to draft one every four years or so. Unless a guy has Adrian Peterson/Barry Sanders talent, RBs are easily replaceable. Can't see any reason to spend any significant money signing a FA RB when our OL is terrible and you're just as likely to find a decent one in the mid to late rounds of the draft who will also have fresher legs and a cheaper contract.

Don't let the name fool you, he looked like he was 41 this season.

The shelf life has expired; you don't sign RB's over the age of 30 unless they are somehow throwing up 1,500 yard seasons. This league has shown that RB's are now like oil filters; get your mileage out of them, maybe run them over the limit a bit, and toss it away for a new one in a cheap fashion.

Michael Turner=Marion Barber


It would be a horrible signing.

31 is very old for a running back..pass!

31 is old for any rb, but turner has some serious miles on him. just draft a guy and pay a whole lot less money for him. every year there are guys in the middle or late in the draft who play very well and dont cost much at all

[Vintage]

I think you just make stuff up, to be honest.

You want Romo gone, but want the Cowboys to sign Turner.

There is no way you can actually watch games and come to that conclusion. No possible way. So you must just make this ish up.

[jazzcat22]

No to Turner. Need a young RB, that can step in for the long haul for when Murray gets injured again.....let's hope that doesn't happen, but seems he's next in line on a list of injury prone RB's, like Julius 7 Felix Jones.

But Turner... even with an OL is not the fix.

I hate it when Skins fans are right.

The draft always has such a plethora of RBs that come out every year. Why get older & spend the money on an aging RB?
