None, roll the dice on what we have with the current RBs now that Zeke is out for six games. Worst case, we don't make the playoffs, lose a few more games and get a better spot in the draft, I know that sounds harsh but the FO needs to be looking at all possibilities at this point as to how the season could go. No reason to keep fighting it and risk it going into next season, serve ot and get it over with, as much as it hurts to say

I suspect there is a reason DM has been inactive lately. Saving him for this situation...

Honestly, I think the best chance they have is Rod Smith.

I would agree. Followed by McFadden. I really really do not like Morris' running style. Never did while he was in Washington either. IMO, he is the definition of a JAG.

I think the trade, if any, needs to be on defensive side...Morris and Mac and even Rod Smith can platoon until Zeke returns. I want a stout 1-tech and perhaps another veteran DB and even LB depth. Oh...and an actual kick returner...

Why do we need a RB? We are fine as Mcfadden rushed for 1000+ and Morris is adequate. Panic is ridiculous.

Why do people fall back on the amount of yards McFadden rushed for in 2015? All yards are not created equal. Most of those yards had zero impact. Watch the games. How many drives stalled and 3 and outs because we could not move the chains on 3rd and shorts? It was like that the whole season. 1000yds/16 games is 62.5 yards a game. Big whoop. McFadden and Dunbar were terrible that year moving the sticks.

McFadden and Morris are so far beneath Zeke it isn't even funny. The offense already bogs down when another RB comes in for a few plays for Zeke. Now imagine that for 6 full games.

This offense won't even be close to what it was with them in there.

Morris is good, he just has to get into rhythm. Of course he isn't going to look like Commanders Morris when you give him 5 carries.

Pass. They invested enough in the Oline that we should be able to stay afloat while Zeke is out. It wont be the same, but it shouldn't be horrible. This makes catching the Eagles look a lot more difficult, unless they melt down.

The Cowboys are still solid at RB. Morris and McFadden can play and Smith is an option. The offense will survive.
