I think he's pointing out the difference between a Philly Blunt and a Cory Blount. Wait, just realizing he now is a Philly Blount. Carry on.

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 We should be looking to organize our backfield the way teams like the Pats and Eagles, by featuring different guys in specialized roles. The depth and injury problem is reduced and you don't have to spend as much as you would with frontline RB talent. 2
greenwithenvy Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 The more roster holes that can be plugged with guys outside the comp pick formula, the better. I think the fact that Bean has been in on both Ivory and Davis says they want to be on the right side of it this year if at all possible. Ivory's style makes for a good contrast to Shady and it would be a short term deal so I'm not worried about the ages. I still expect 2 rookies. 1 drafted, 1 UDFA.

Ned Kelly Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 A little off topic Can any of you experts share your thoughts on a guy like this for the Bills, perhaps undrafted free agent. FB/Hb/Te. Sooners Dad was also a Bill once http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/dimitri-flowers?DB_OEM_ID=31000&id=2560135

Could be worth a flyer that the coin could land on the other side this time

I'd keep him on and look to someone maybe a little younger to back up Shady like McKinnon. RB - McCoy / McKinnon FB - DiMarco / Tolbert stop wasting roster spots on FB's. Many NFL teams don't even use one.
OldTimer1960 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 I am not one who thinks that quality RBs are a dime a dozen and that you can easily rely on late round draftees and UDFAs with no loss in quality, so I like that they are investigating accomplished options at RB. However, I do think that the majority of RBs have short shelf lifes in the NFL. I respect the career that Ivory has had, but I would not spend a lot on him to backup McCoy. I would be alright with a 2nd or 3rd round pick being spent on his backup as long as the draftee is a strong candidate to be McCoy’s eventual replacement. That being said, if they think that adding Ivory helps the culture and leadership that they are trying to instill, then by all means sign him up. 1
