Solid depth at RB isnt improving? We will talk after the draft

Paying 2.1m and losing DJackson for 24 carries from DMC was beyond stupid, especially with AMorris and Dunbar on the roster

How does bringing back the same player improve your team?

Indeed. There will still be non-believers here though.

I'm you missed this, but McFadden was injured last year and had 24 carries in 2015, but was 4th in the NFL in rushing yards the season before.

Yet we have lost 7 FAs and counting and have a splash signing of Nolan Carroll
When does the do-right rule help the team's karma?
Ratliff was treated right, DWare was treated right, Miles Austin was treated right, Kyle Orton was treated right, Tony Romo was treated right........I don't see any returned loyalty

You have to admit that 2015 was one of the worst seasons for RBs in a decade
DMC's 1089 yards wouldn't place in the Top 10 most years
We still need a young buck to replace AMorris

See Darren McFadden and Terence Williams. Williams even tweeted "Loyalty" after agreeing to terms with us on a very reasonable contract.
Anybody who can't see the benefit of both these signings is blinded by an agenda in my opinion.
Anybody expecting "splash" signings hasn't been paying attention and was destined for disappointment from the word go.

Because it means we arent sitting here with one RB on the roster not named Zeke. He also didnt play last season. So having his speed there will help. You can sit here and bash everything the front office does, its fine, i just wont judge this team until after the draft.

I was hoping this would happen. Letting Lance walk and retaining Darren shows me the FO is committed to making solid football decisions for our running game. Now please draft us a solid RB in the 3rd round to complete the acquisition work there.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion and you may be proven right when its all said and done. I believe that is why they play the games. That said, your bitterness is showing.
I would also challenge your point about nobody else wanted "them", whoever "them" is. It has been reported that both McFadden and Williams had interest from other teams. But we ignore that because it doesn't fit your agenda, right?
Some food for thought. How many people would have bet money before the season that a 4th round rookie QB would lead us to a 13-3 record last year? My guess would be not many.
Just because we didn't make any splash signings does not immediately and automatically doom this next season to failure. Have some perspective.
