Cowboys not sold on current group of RBs?

RB easiest plug and play position. I'd still like to see an upgrade at Safety and the one tech on D. Perhaps backup QB?

 

[darthseinfeld]

They have hinted several times since the draft that they were open to making a move

Something to watch, Gurley passed his physical and will open camp healthy. I could see Tre Mason being available via trade by the end of camp

It doesn't sound like he was referring to running backs specifically.

He also said, "Not signing Chris Johnson or Ray Rice says more about the running backs we already have than anything about those two."

I just hope Rice isnt on their radar at all. Johnson I fell still has some juice left and could be a one year fix if they dont like what they see in camp. Rice would be Eddie George II.

Id like to see them look at swing DT's. Guys that can play both the 1 and 3

 

[Doomsday101]

Not sold as of yet but willing to let the current guys sell me on their ability. Just glad to know Cowboys will be keeping an eye on other options.

You can stick anyone back there does not mean they will produce, there are a lot of failures at RB. This team has had some of them.

 

[CATCH17]

Im guessing that would be for Lamar Miller.

Would like that.. Or Crowell from the Browns.

Knile Davis could be a possibility but i'd imagine KC would want more of a premium pick.

Id like to see us pick up Cyrus Gray. I think he could surprise some people in camp

Miller would probably be our best option. Only major catch is he is a FA next year, so he would only be a 1 year fix.

Slim pickings out there. This is our achilles heel. We need to manage the position so that no one gets hurt. If we do bring in a back it should be a bruiser type like Steven Jackson or Jonathan Dwyer (God forbid we bring another wife beater ). I'm not sure Chris Johnson adds anything to a stable made off of change of pace backs.

 

[ActualCowboysFan]

Maybe, but this is just standard business practice.

 

[DTown214]

We should give CJ a chance. Have Dunbar and Seastrunk be special teams stars and have a three-headed monster at RB with Randle/DMC/CJ.

So carry 6 backs including a fullback?

yeah, i am sure McFadden or Randle can easily pick up where Murray, a 1,800-yard rusher, left off.

They should put jones at fs. With his smarts, height, athleticism, range he would be a baller. That would help the cbs out big time.

Given his workload last year I'm not sure Murray could "easily pick up where Murray, a 1,800-yard rusher, left off."

 

[DTown214]

Yes. McFadden is due for an injury around week 6-8 and Randle might get caught stealing something cheap and insignificant. Can't be too careful. I mean I don't have a 53 man roster projection but I'd like to keep all those guys unless it means cutting someone that can really contribute. If we have to cut a 3rd string corner that won't see the field then so be it.
