No doubt it’s MM. night and day difference from the previous “team building” strategy through the Garrett years. Plenty of competition created where it never existed before 3 years ago. That’s quite a coincidence!

The RB position should never worry you "greatly." There are always RBs available.
I blame it on my bad eyes.
Churning the position and creating competition.
Weve seen ball he is terrible. Mcgovern wasnt good enough.
This is kind of a head scratcher. I think the bolded has been a weakness and part of what is a big question mark for this team. Who are you referring to on the OL that we have drafted in the mid rounds (obviously excludes Tyler Smith) since McCarthy has been here that has both made an impact and is expected to continue doing so? In the first 3 drafts we have an average NFL center and a bunch of guys who may be cut that we drafted in the mid rounds on the OL. Maybe this year Richards becomes a player. I don't think that is better than what most NFL teams have done in the last 4 years and probably worse than the average.
Rest easy my friend. In 2023 the least two important positions in football are RB snd LB.
I think Ronald Jones is a serviceable 2 tbh. Ofcourse we have no idea what Vaughn will bring to the table.
The RB position should always worry you. There are never enough effective RBs available.
You mean a plan like underwear thief?
Unless you don't have quality ones, then they become the most important positions in football.
Seriously, people want Hopkins, but I think we need another back and not a receiver. It’s Pollard and the rookie Vaughn…..I don’t see much from the others, unless the coaching staff knows something we don’t.
That IS a good plan though…..
I do think we need better 3T's. I think Odighizuwa is a good rotational peice and solid starter, but I dont think he is a difference maker as an everydown guy. Fehoko is interesting long term, but he is still a project and probably not much more than an energy guy at the moment.
HB yes. I think people are crowning Duece too quickly, and I like Duece. Im ok with where we are at LB talent wise. Alot depends on Clark taking step up, and/or Overshown hitting the ground running. I think if Clark takes that step to become a starting quality player and Overshown can contribute we should he ok there.
This love affair with Deuce is reminding me a lot of last year's love affair with Turpin. Who knows? Maybe he'll turn out to be a Hell of a weapon, but there's a stronger possibility he just has occasional flashes, like Turpin has had. I have serious doubts that our RB situation is fine, and if there's nobody in FA who can do much damage, we might be better off making our WR corps extremely strong, in order to open up things for the RBs we have.
It's really not. Adequate RBs are always available. Look at all the starting RBs and significant role players who were third-day picks or UFAs. They're everywhere.
