Hopefully we can find someone slower to throw screens to 

I was more excited about him joining the team than any other signing...  Didn't know he was a shell of himself.

Absolutely a number of mid/late round options at RB.  Only thing I don't care for here is that it limits options for Barkley.  I don't see us trading Barkley and cutting Boiker...but who knows.  A house cleaning and year of suckage seems to be on the table.

We can get a starter for less than that in the draft.  As solid as he is, that kind of money for the backup rb is a piss poor allocation of resources 

To be fair Barkely was out so much or underperformed, it felt like Booker was the starter at times.

Yeah he was "okay to good" but you can get that in the sixth round.

Agree a replacement Can be found in the draft. But he was the defecto starter and he often out performed Barkley.  And I feel like the last Barkley cheerleader left sometimes. lol
 

 

And I’m not trying to keep him btw. lol.

I don't know if I like the idea of counting on a third day running back. They'll get you yards, but those are the guys that put the ball on ground once every forty or so touches.

RBs rarely fumble now a days though, simple because of their lack of workload in the modern game.

If anything for evey time our "third day" RB will fumble our first round pick #6 QB puts it on the ground x5 as much.  

I mean looking at the fumble leaders from last year the only RB on the list in the top 20 is Gibson with 6.

oh, Gibson is a team killer though. Six fumbles on under 200 touches, right? That's unbelievably bad for a running back used like he is.

He's like the poster child for what I'm referring to.... he gets yards, he looks great when he isn't putting the ball on the ground, but there's no way his athleticism makes up for the turnovers.

Honestly for the cost of a 3rd round pick and a 4 year 5 mil contract I’d roll the dice with 6 fumbles for his type of production from my starter.  That’s better value than using 2% of my cap on a solid backup rb imo
