Title: Veteran Running Backs Post by: tubba marxxx on July 27, 2011, 01:09:08 pm Scott Hansen reported from Davie, FL..Miami's narrowed down to Ahmad Bradshaw, DeAngelo Williams, Willis McGahee, and Marion Barber and their top choices to fill the void at RB
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: fyo on July 27, 2011, 01:15:01 pm Bradshaw, please.
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: Dolphster on July 27, 2011, 01:19:44 pm Please not Marion Barber. Having been stuck in Dallas for the past 4 years, I've seen enough of his dumb ass running for 3 yard carries and jumping and celebrating like he just took one 75 yards to the house.
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: tubba marxxx on July 27, 2011, 01:21:41 pm ^^ agreed..I think the order I typed it would be my order of importance
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: fyo on July 27, 2011, 01:35:01 pm Williams is 28 and coming off an injury... Didn't play the second half of the season and didn't perform well the first half.
Too big a risk. The only one of those I'd want to throw money at is Bradshaw. Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: dolfan13 on July 27, 2011, 01:36:12 pm williams just resigned with carolina
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: tubba marxxx on July 27, 2011, 01:39:33 pm ^^..wow, can't believe I was beaten to it haha

Carolina and RB DeAngelo Williams reached agreement on a five-year, $43 million deal that includes $21 million in guaranteed money. Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: Pappy13 on July 27, 2011, 02:11:39 pm I'll take Ronnie and/or Ricky over Marion Barber.
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: tubba marxxx on July 27, 2011, 03:23:59 pm ^^ agreed
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: jtex316 on July 27, 2011, 03:28:17 pm Subtle note within this story about Marion Barber:

That way I can still wear my number 23 jersey on Sundays for another year. ;D
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: AZ Fins Fan 55 on July 27, 2011, 03:54:59 pm Please say no to Marion Barber..... :|
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: Pappy13 on July 27, 2011, 03:57:33 pm I see a lot of guys coming to term with their old team. I got a feeling that nothing will be done in the RB department until they find out if they can get Orton. After that happens or falls through, if no one has signed Ronnie yet, I would expect them to try to resign him.
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: fyo on July 27, 2011, 04:03:24 pm Why the lack of love for Bradshaw? He's a top-flight running back in my book and at only 25, he's got a lot more gas in the tank than most. He also doesn't have a sordid injury history.
Title: Re: Veteran Running Backs Post by: badhare on July 27, 2011, 05:24:13 pm Bradshaw is the best FA available now.
Plus i wouldn't mind him in teal and white... especially when they play the giants this year... |
