A-train
Why in the world have we not signed this guy???? Anthony Thomas would be the perfect fit to fill our #2 RB hole. I would feel more than confident with him and JuJo's backup. This far into free agency I have a feeling that A-Train could be had for a good bargin ... Probably a 1 mill bonus and 800K a season. on a 2-3 year deal.

I agree I think the reason is the draft is deep in the RB position and we can get someone younger and cheaper in the 4-6 rounds

Fact > Your Opinion
|
Why sign him to a 1 million dollar bonus when we could just draft a guy like Eric Shelton? I could see Thomas be signed after the draft, since the draft is full of good running backs.
"Can we get Drew Bledsoe back out here just for a week, so you guys can fall back in love with Tony? Let's sign Drew Bledsoe back for a week. Because sometimes when you have a pretty girl for so long, you forget how pretty she is. But when you put an ugly girl next to her, 'Oh, no, I'm really doing well.' And maybe we need to bring Drew back, so we can back to 'Oh, no, we're really doing well.'"

ATrain simply has no speed. After watching JuJo he would seem painfully slow. He was soundly beaten out by Julius' older and slower brother.
I am not sure ATrain wants to back up the Jones' boys at each stop. I could see him trying Arizona.
But I still don't know what any team saw Thursday night that would have made them comfortable with waiting a round or two for the offensive lineman they wanted. ---Todd McShay
We just converted half our LB to DL. We have a 30m starting DL, it better be pretty friggin good. |

agreed, no juke and no speed and not great power runner. we are better off drafting somone in the 4th or 5th round. |

Not sure about Atrain but I personally would like a veteran RB on the club to be one of the backups/FB/versatile back.
That's not saying Bickerstaff and Lee won't be there in the end. Lee should be able to start getting it. Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.
