Cole Beasely got 35x the guaranteed money. People will complain about anything.

I agree, I am not going to speak what I actually think he will do (so as not to jinx it), but this is either going to be a low cost failure or a home run.

Let's see. I have crap on my shoe because I stepped in a pile of dog mess, but I only paid four bucks for the pair - so A+ for me.

I think this sums up your theory.

No it is I have crap on my shoe because I stepped in a pile of dog mess, but I only paid four bucks for the pair - so A+ (possible)

OR

I paid 4 bucks for crap and got fine alligator shoes. (possible)

So for 4 bucks you get a lottery ticket.

Don't necessarily agree with you, but that was funny!

Some people see the glass as half full. Others just sniff the glass and realize it's not water, but watery dog poo.

There seems to be a lot of crap in you life, how many dogs do you have?

He is big, strong, fast and elusive and is young enough to turn around his career. And it literally cost us nothing to find out if he can. And you're complaining about it? Listen to yourself. You sound ridiculous.

Why can't we have a Forsett or a Blount?

Are we not allowed to have nice things?

Why can't it be something in the middle?

Wow 3 million for 2 years, that might as well be Vet Min. unless he goes awff for 2000+ he doesn't see more than 1.5 per. BRILLIANT

Would the middle be OK for the dollars we paid?

I just know this board it will be black or white, no gray allowed here.

But you are right.

 

[noletime95]

200k to get a look in camp. 2 year deal in the unlikely case he blows up next year. What's the downside?

You want to complain that Dallas hadn't fixed the pass rush or lacks a bell cow RB, fine. But you just can't complain about this deal.

I'm just tired of people acting like he's Barry Sanders. I think it's more likely he makes the team and plays 15-20 snaps a game. The trouble is that these backup running backs have to play special teams.

Judging by your signature maybe you should try and see the glass as half full more often.. Positive energy is a real thing

 

[Bowdown27]

Mcfadden made 60 million and I think over 20 million guaranteed w the raiders. He came here to win and be with a team that he loved growing up. I'm hoping it works out well for both of us

He was Barry Sanders coming out of college.

He is either going to be good enough to the point it does not matter whether he plays special teams or it does.

I am thinking (hoping) it does not matter, if it does here is you 200k and see you later.

If he is getting 15-20 snaps a game and being our returner (which he has done well and is special teams) it will not matter.

At this point, I honestly don't care for this signing unless McFadden prevents us from drafting a RB.

Mcfadden will not prevent us from drafting a RB, it may mean we don't draft one early, but we will draft one.

It allows us to select one when the value is there, my hope is the value in in the first because that would mean Gurley, but if not we do not need to reach.
