Do we keep 4 RBs?

I have wondered this for a while ever since signing Morris but especially after getting an elite 3 down back like Zeke does it make sense for us to keep all 4 RBs? I can't see Dunbar going anywhere, he is cheap, he is a good change of pace guy and great on special teams. So are Morris and McFadden completing for that last roster spot or will we keep all 4?

I would keep four, Dunbar is a specialty player/ST guy and you need depth.

No need and I think Dunbar is the odd man out.

Zeke and McFadden are both 3 down back types. McFadden is the backup IMO. Morris is the change of pace

If a RB gets cut it will be Dunbar without question. But would not be surprise if we keep 4 since Dunbar plays ST.

Keep 4 through camp and hope to trade Dunbar in preseason.

You don't cut your second best RB who is also best pass protector when he's playing for peanuts anyway and in final year of his deal. It would make no sense to cut McFadden. RBs get injured a lot.

I would be beyond shocked if we cut McFadden. He doesn't cost much and is coming off of a very good season.

You all talk about saving 2M like it's your money LOL.

What guy are we really gonna get for 2M that had the impact DMC had last year?

Morris is a better fit back-up......3rd should be STer

Ummm, no. Morris was signed for short yardage, grind time. He's notorious in DC as a poor blocker and brick hands. Dunbar gets released or traded at some point unless a back is injured in camp.
