Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Remarkable how quickly RB's fade away in the NFL. Larry Johnson was the man maybe 2 years ago, now he's washed up. Same thing happened to guys like Shawn Alexander, Ricky Watters, Clinton Portis, Willie Parker, etc.-- go from superstars to has-beens in a year or two. This is why it's idiotic to spend high draft picks or throw a lot of money at FA RB's, IMO.
Coach Tuesday Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 They're not happy with Daniel Thomas - so far (although it's early) he has looked more tentative and less physical than they thought he would.

miserable_fan Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 I can't see him being an impact player at this point in his career. And I don't know how good of a mentor he'd be to Thomas. His attitude issues are well-documented throughout the league. I think the Dolphins are a bigger mess than us right now.

I agree, they are a mess, just like us.. But Johnson was cheap, and whatever baggage he may bring is worht the price if he shows up to play on Sunday's. IMO of course. Tim-

RBs seem to have a shorter shelf life nowadays, which makes drafting them high in the 1st round a fool's errand.

Turn Down For Watkins Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 miami's a mess offensively. Henne reminds alot of Trent Edwards around this time last year getting another shot to start the season when he really shouldnt be

If you had the chance to take the next Adrian Peterson or Chris Johnson , wouldn't you use your 1st on them? Not saying that Spiller is the guy . But he still may be.

I can remember a time when your ilk used to run amok on this board. What's it like being the last man on the bandwagon?

I do have to admit I find it both funny as well as ironic having a bills fan say that to me. =)

Although I agree that adequate/decent RB's seem to be easier to find in todays NFL, and the avg RB seems to now have a shorter lifespan in the league, you can use you arguement about GB with other positions too. Look who played LT for the Steelers last year (and was supposed to be the starter this year) in the Super bowl? (Hint - a former Bills castoff, just like Arizona in the SB)
