McFadden on the Chopping Block?

[MrMom]

Not a surprise. Don't think they'd get much in return, though.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

McFadden and Butler: two vets who should be very afraid.

I heard Nate Newton say that Alfred Morris isn't looking that good.

For whatever that's worth.

I heard Nate Newton say that Alfred Morris isn't looking that good.

For whatever that's worth.

Interesting considering most everyone else seems to say he's looked great.

I've heard nothing but the opposite.

Butler will be pushing TWill this year and there is no way he will be cut.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Nate is a Zeke fan. He is going to downplay any other back in camp.

 

[Sydla]

Butler will be pushing TWill this year and there is no way he will be cut.

Well he better get in gear then because it seems most of the early reports have said Butler has been pretty much blah.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

Butler will be pushing TWill this year and there is no way he will be cut.

Butler will be pushing the paleta cart on the sidelines. He has shown nothing and will be passed by the rookie if he does not step up.

Butler will be pushing TWill this year and there is no way he will be cut.

TWill has a big lead. Butler has been a bit of a disappointment thus far.

Still dont see him getting cut though

 

[Stash]

I've heard nothing but the opposite.

Same here.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Yeah, EVERY report I have heard on Morris is that he is doing everything they thought he could and more. The knock was he wasn't a pass catcher but he has even looked good doing that.

The "news" about McFadden isn't really news, just someone saying they are only going to keep 3 or 4. Given that, someone is going to be the odd man out. While I think McFadden is probably the best running back on the roster outside of Elliott, he is not the best fit for the zone scheme and he probably is the only one with potential trade value.

 

[CATCH17]

Not a surprise. Don't think they'd get much in return, though.

We'd be lucky to get a 7th for McFadden.


I don't see any trade value there.

 

[Zimmy Lives]

BTW, Street is also going to find himself on the street if he does not step it up as well.

 

[Stash]

TWill has a big lead. Butler has been a bit of a disappointment thus far.

Neither do I. He brings speed that most of the rest don't.

 

[Stash]

We'd be lucky to get a 7th for McFadden.


I don't see any trade value there.

Neither do I given his injury. Amazing and sad that we can't get anything for last year's 4th leading rusher.

 

[erod]

Interesting considering most everyone else seems to say he's looked great.

I hope so because I love that kid's attitude and personality.

 

[darthseinfeld]

I still think Jackson makes the 53 over McFadden. I believe Jacksons ability to contribute on ST will give him that 3rd HB spot

Don't think they cut McFadden. They will be able to get a late rounder for him as he is a 3 down back coming off a 1K season. 2 down HB's grow on trees. 3 down HB's dont

 

[CATCH17]

Neither do I given his injury. Amazing and sad that we can't get anything for last year's 4th leading rusher.

I'd be happy if he is a guy that we can cut and he just kinda remains available on free agency all year.


If Elliot and a backup show that they can pick up blitzers than he is gone imo.

Teams saw how those yards happened.

The Cowboys were so easy to beat last year without Romo. Get up on Dallas by 10, don't give up big plays, play tough in the red zone. McFadden feasted on 7-man fronts behind a great offensive line.
