Running back candidates

[endersdragon]

I cant help but think there is a trade a brewing. If Lamar Miller came here id be elated with this offseason. Unless of course AP comes then ill just fly off the handle and probably end up in prison.

Miller would be really nice, but I don't see the Phins trading him for nothing.

Neither do I, id honestly offer a 3rd up for him, see what happens. To start off at least

It's amazing how the purpose of this news just went right over the head of ya'll. Don't you know this is the Cowboys way of making sure that the CowboysZone gets plenty of traffic in the middle of May?

Just the mention of Felix Jones was enough.

14 pages is a pretty good start.

I don't think they trade him at all

They drafted Ajayi but are pretty thin otherwise

I was on board with mcFadden and Randle being the guys. I bought into what the front office was selling.

But the fact we keep getting linked to wash ups like Tate and others is making me waver in my beliefs. If the front office is so sold on our running situation, why are they investigating more bums?

I don't think anyone truly believes the front office was sold on current running backs. Broddius has even mentioned Dallas is targeting two teams to trade with (neither being Minny). That is not exactly invoking confidence in McFadden and Randle. This is going to take time to sort out and it won't be done on fans timeline or terms.

All that back & forth over whether or not our FO was satisfied with our bush league RBC potential.

Hope this opened some eyes today.

Our committee of scrubs is so impressive the team gave freaking Felix Jones a call..................do you know how bad your RBs have to suck to think Felix Jones (fresh off his vet combine) might be better?

Dude stop. You're going to cause an aftershock.

The collective sound of heads exploding today was like standing out on the beach on a lovely summer night and taking in the Independence Day fireworks.

So we are signing Felix Jones and trading him for AD

Or Minnesota is sweating that we wont be interested in AD anymore once we sign Jones?

Neither. Minnesota will see that we only had to trade a meal voucher to get Jones and will beg Jerry to send them some Papa Johns pizza in exchange for Peterson.

I'm kind of worried that the RB situation might have caused Beast to finally snap. The number of hysterical laughter emoticons exceeds the limit for a person who still has his sanity.

Quick, someone get him some Peterson!

 

[Bleu Star]

Proceed with caution.

I'm feeling nauseous, guys. After all of the smart moves that the FO has done in the off-season, I'm simply bewildered with their approach at building a formidable backfield. Maybe something is afoot, but I just don't understand any train of thought that sees anything in Felix Jones. I mean..they got a good, close-up whiff of that guy throughout the years...did they not smell it?

Does he have naked photos of someone's wife, too?

It's a smokescreen man. Don't read too far into it.

 

[Bleu Star]

You can only pretend for so long. Eventually reality will indeed set in when those polished turds suit up.

I'm glad the FO initiate the next phase of the plan today.

 

[RJ_MacReady]

I hope so. There has to be something to this. It just doesn't make sense to make all of these smart moves in the off-season and then do something dumb like this. We basically saw everything that Felix had to offer and his quick decline (this half hour is sponsored by Hostess).


Armchair GM -- OUT!

 

[Beast_from_East]

Three headed monster, baby! Now to talk Barber out of retirement and find whatever dumpster Choice is living in.

Don't forget about these two guys also....................Julius Jones and Eddie George!!!

@BryanBroaddus Why? Didn't he run a 4.8 40 at the veterans combine?

[Beast_from_East]

After the vet combine, I was going to suggest Felix as a joke but thought that the idea was too absurd to be even remotely funny ...

That 4.9 he ran at the vet combine was just too good for Dallas to pass up

I can see it now, a big, fat, chubby Felix jogging down the sideline against the G-men opening night

Broaddus talked to a scout for another team. Felix ran a 4.57
