The Good, The Bad and THE KINGS OF THE NORTH

Neither would I. Asking price would be way too high. Let him hit the open market... Which we won't have to chance to.

voided all guarentees on the rookie contract. Attitude sucks apperantly.... Yeah, when Ramsey runs that locker room that's going to happen. As elite of a player as Ramsey is, an attitude that toxic isn't a winning one. Especially when the rest of the team gets overly cocky and follows in suit.

Extremely good. Actually the perfect compliment, especially in this scheme. But only if he hit FA.

Ah, wasn't aware of that. I would take him if he became a FA, but I definitely wouldn't trade for him. I think we can find a decent RB in the draft to compliment Gus and Dixon anyway.

I'd put our needs as this right now.
C
LG
FS
Pass rusher.

Fix this oline and the RB position does matter less. Though I wouldn't be objected to drafting someone early on

Yes, thank you.

How many did Hurst have. Sorry I didnt ask yesterday
Click to expand...

James Hurst had 56

The te numbers are interesting too:

Nick Boyle 37
Maxx Williams 30
Mark Andrews 27
Hayden Hurst 21

The blockers are still leading the team but nick Boyle is playing fewer than half the total snaps and the rookies are getting at least 25% of the snaps... strong complementary contributions from all 4 and the rookies gradually increasing their proportion of the snaps

Fournette is lazy, always injured, not a team guy.
Not our kind of player.

He’s also not that good of a runner and hasn’t been since he entered the nfl - he’s had high volume but hasn’t really been a dynamic runner and offers very little in the passing game too

He has pedigree because he was the 4th pick in the draft but he hasn’t shown that at all in the pros
 
Remember when I said Gus runs like we thought Dixon would?

Now Dixon runs the way we thought Dixon would.

This is weird....

Pass rusher should be top of the list. It should definitely be above LG and FS should be behind C or Pass Rusher.

I have to believe they have a plan for Tim Williams and to put someone next to him.

There isn't a RB in the league right now that could benefit as much from a change of scenery than him. Bad oline, no passing attack to offset him. He's a sledge hammer. And even if he isn't dynamic(he was never going to be), he was still the entirity of their offense in 2017. Fournette is at his best when he has a FB to follow and he can flatten opponents. Words cannot describe how good he'd be a fit here. We have that(especially if we get a real C), and a QB who is an elite runner who can take the pressure off of hi.

Though I would certainly not trade anything for him.

The Jaguars are not getting rid of him.

I don’t care if he is we still need a pass rusher as our top need. We cannot hope any of them do anything because they haven’t shown enough yet and we’re losing potentially both Suggs and Smith

at this point I don't know. I just hope Dixon going into next year is in shape and ready to take over as RB1 the way I thought years ago.


I wonder where all of this leaves Collins.

Original round tender and in a fight for his life in training camp to get on the 53

That is why I said to put someone next to him.

Unless of course they double dip on that position in the draft which I highly doubt.

Neither he did vs the real D in college.

We definitely need a pass rusher but I’m not sold it needs to be an edge rusher - the thing that has killed us since Ngata left has been a lack of interior pressure against good OL (ZDS and Pierce destroy average or worse interior OL but can get stonewalled by good interior linemen)

I didn’t like him in college either - although I still thought he’d be better than this but I liked other rbs way more like Dalvin Cook and Alvin Kamara (full disclosure I didn’t like McCaffrey either and I was hella wrong on that)

If they have a plan for Timmy then why has he been inactive all these games? So far, their plan is very questionable when Bowser hasn't shown us much of anything on the field.

I am not sure it was the team and more what was said about him from fans. Fans aren't exactly nice, not even to their own players. If I was Perriman and read what THIS forum said about me? lmfaoooo

Not just the forum. Remember the sarcastic applause when he made like a 5 yard wide open catch? Mike Wallace came to his defense after the game, but they have been rough on Perriman. Happy to see him stepping up given a fresh start. He sure looked like a first round pick last night...

The fans who booed him yesterday have no class, I was really disappointed being able to hear how loud it was from the broadcast. I wish him well.
