Time to trade for a RB, but who?

Anyone watching the SEA-DEN may be watching our next RB. I like either Montee Ball or Christine Michael.
 
McFadden was a street free agent who is playing for the vet minimum. If he was so valuable don't you think some team would have been willing to sign him for a tad more? Nobody wanted him.

Exactly. I have a die hard raiders friend who does not work at the liquor store...

DMC is a myth now and always will be. Keep DC born and bred Dunbar and Randle. Find 1 FA if not 2 guys somewhere if Gus is done
 
No. We cut McFadden.

Randle/Ball compete for 1st
Dunbar change of pace

Maybe Gus or Leche to PS

Ok. fans cut McFadden. 'Cause as of now, management and coach Garrett want to see what he has 1st.
 
It's not me, it's what management and Garrett think of him.

Stephen didn't sound too impressed with the running back position yesterday.

No one is too happy that McFadden hasn't played since he's been here.

it's called game tape and medical history

unless he started taking some of that Willie Beamon Invisible Juice we have a good idea what he has
 
Randle, DMC, and Dunbar haven't played a single game yet this season and some folks are ready to give up on them already. They never had a chance with these people. Despite your lack of patience, these are the RB's the FO is sticking with. If you'd just wait, I believe they'll prove a trade for another RB is not needed. DMC will be back in TC on Monday and Randle's injury seems to not be as bad as first thought. They should both see some action VS the 49ers next game.

I never believed in them. So I really cant give up on them.

Having said that. I think Randle is good in a RBBC platoon. But he wont be able to carry the load if another back goes down......

Also, I am hoping DMC can finally put together a season. But I wouldn't count on it. Only if there was no other options.....

I am thinking both of them will be down/inept way to much. And we will see Romo making more passing attempts. Which is the last thing I want to see.

I was also hoping a young unknown would show promise and take the job away from both of them, or at least be able to carry the load when the other two are out.

I have no confidence in Dunbar, and I really don't know why....He just looks frail. And he just hasn't done anything.....Your either a RB in the NFL or you're not. There isn't a lot of time for development......

Gus looked slow and cumbersome for a RB. It reminded me of the first time I saw Bobby Carpenter play his first preseason. I knew right then, he just wasn't going to be able to keep up. But maybe Gus finds his place as a short yardage specialist... Lache showed some speed......But I am guessing neither will make the roster.

Thats just my honest opinion. That and a buck will get you a bad cup of coffee.....

We need a trade or to pick someone up after the cuts.

I am warming up to RBBC, but we need another RB..............
 
What team is stupid enough to trade their best RB ??
So that means we would be getting a backup player or player with issues.
They are waiting for a cut player, someone good who didnt make the team.
 
Khiry Robinson. The Saints have a crowded backfield and this guy can be elite but he's tuck there behind Ingram (figure that one out). Had a nice TD catch and a bigrun with just a couple touches for the Saints in their first game. Only 25, 6'0 - 220 lbs.
 
IF the front office makes a move, it won't be until after roster cuts. To give up a draft pick or player at this point in the pre season is foolish, unless you're going to get a sure fire starter, and I don't see that happening. The next 2 weeks will go a long way in showing us what Randle and McFadden bring to the table. I'm not big on Dunbar unless he gets more touches.
 
Stephen didn't sound too impressed with the running back position yesterday.

No one is too happy that McFadden hasn't played since he's been here.

missing some TC or the first PS game isnt a big deal, even in this PS 2 the starters usually only do one or 2 possessions.
They might play him more now and randle just to take a look, but it is still just a ps game where the other team may not be playing starters.
and they may play rookies etc.
So how randle or mcf, or dunbar look in a PS game is deceptive.
