Unless you are a Top 3 RB, you are easily replaceable and hinder greatly on the Line and QB play. He should be our starting RB this season and we'll probably draft another one in the 4th or 5th round too.

Really looking solid so far but we definitely need another O-Line guy in free agency, like that Center from New England. Hard enough to fill out 2 starting Tackle spots in the draft, let alone one at center or guard as well.

There are 3 centers in this draft class that I'd love to see on either the Phins or Niners rosters... Tyler Biadasz (who would fit nicely next to his buddy Dieter, Cesar Ruiz and Matt Hennessy. If we are determining which players to get via FA or the draft, I'd like to see C come from the draft.

Ha! this is exactly what my boy said, getting an RB in the later rounds.  I like this signing.  Decent numbers, I seem to recall he was injured for the latter half of the season and never made it back, even in the playoffs.

Rams released Todd Gurley and the Falcons immediately picked him up for 1 year/$5 Million. Would've been a nice low risk signing for us but he is from Georgia so that's why he went there.

Rams are basically heading toward rebuild mode now with their overpaid, system QB and no future because they sacrificed tons of draft picks to move up for their QB.

You listening Miami?

All QB's (not on their rookie contract) are overpaid. All of them.

Most important position on the field, now Offensive Tackles are way overpaid. A QB is one guy but a Line make sup 5 people. How can a LT or RT make $18 Million when his contributions are nothing if the other 4 guys suck?

I wouldn't oppose getting Gore back for a year or two. I'm pretty sure that he can be signed for rather cheaply.

A while back I think I read that he said he wanted to come back to Miami to end his career. Young running backs could learn a hell of a lot from him. If you can get him cheap I don't see a downside to it.

There are multiple mid round RBs in the draft this year that I think are good enough to push Howard for the starting position or at least to get decent playing time.
