White Linen Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 the cap is a small piece. Its the 5th AND some space we are getting back. I wouldnt stress hard over it. ultimately, the decision here should amount to "if shady gets hurt, am i comfortable with MG filling in for a few weeks" if the answer is yes -- no brainer, just do it and have the position settled. if its uncertain, you start leaning towards pass. I'd add this question to the decision - if Shady stays healthy does MG get enough touches or do we run with power when Shady isn't in? In other words is MG's real value this year only if Shady gets hurt?
Captain Murica Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 BTW, do not know if it was mentioned or not, the team is not only counting Shady's salary towards the position they're also including the money they invested with DiMacro and Tolbert.
Dr. Who Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 100 pages on a backup RB? It's definitely a first-world problem.
YoloinOhio Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 @billsfanaticsBF Like him or not, Whaley has made a living off replacing talent. Gillislee being one of those pickups himself. Flipped 🍳 into a 5th. 💯
Riverboat Richie Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 If they really wanted him, I would have thought it would be a done deal already.

ndirish1978 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 We can do better. This should hit 150 before it dies
Real McClappy Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 It's definitely a first-world problem. true Aim high! and true I'm actually excited to see what Williams will bring to the table. I really liked him out of college.
PolishDave Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 +1 Why aren't we at 100 yet Aaand we made it! /thread
Watkins101 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 They better re-sign him. If we lose him, we would need a running back in the draft, and I don't see us getting a RB of his caliber in the fifth. jmo

I really like Williams out of BYU and Conner out of Pitt which will be available in the later round if we do grab that extra pick in the 5th.
HappyDays Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Crazy prediction: we use the extra 5th to trade up in the 2nd and snag Jabrill Peppers I should not make predictions
BuffaloBaumer Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 I wish I could get out of the mindframe of not caring abut this because playoffs are not happening with Patriots around.

A year ago nobody cared about MG. MG had some good runs on his own but most of his runs, he ran through big holes.
