Poor OP. He is under the misnomer that his team actually has a real general manager.

You want to fix this offense?

Here is an idea.

Trade Sam Williams (dont want any part of him after what hes done here and acting like he is some great player) and Gallup with a second rounder for Henry and Hopkins. I am not judging Dhop on his time in Tennesee as that team is a dumpster fire right now.

You get a bruiser at RB that can impose his physicality on the opposing team, and a WR that will take pressure off of Lamb and Cooks.

This is a move. This move shows the fan base you actually care. Standing PAT and "waiting for teams to call you" is not the way to go.
Why would they want an overpaid WR or even Williams? Trying to trade a 2nd for 2 good players is already a tough ask and trying to sweeten it with castoffs doesn’t actually make it more appealing but makes it less.

I was an advocate of the team signing Deandre Hopkins many many moons ago last offseason, well before 'short receivers are a problem for the offense' comments first surfaced on the forum...

If you think Pollard isnt some of the problem, you need to re watch.

How come Dowdle has no problem with the blocking when he comes in? Seems to get a lot further than Pollard does up the middle.
Dowdle is averaging 3.8 yards per carry and Pollard is 3.9............

Rather try to trade those two to Denver for Jeudy. He has more upside and would give the offense some more speed and quickness and is a good route runner.
Why would Denver want to trade Jeudy, if he was any good?

Doesnt fix the run game though. And Jeudy is finesse. I want physical.
The run game issues don't have anything to do with the RBs and a new RB won't fix them. It's the OL (plus I think the lack of pressing the defense deep in this McCarthy offense).

Unless you find an RB that somehow makes the defense get out of short zones then he wont fix this problem..MM needs to fix this problem ....

Didn't Williams say he'd have 10 sacks this year, how many does he have so far??

The best chance to fix the run game is to tweak the scheme and get the 5 guys who haven't played a game together in almost a year on the same page. Unless the blocking gets better it won't matter who is back there. Not being able to single Gallup and load up on the run would help as well.
Get Henry and watch the OL suddenly “gel”

Didnt you propose this exact trade a week or so ago? No one in there right mind would give a 2nd round pick in this trade
