BuffaloRush Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 It appears some of the folks over at OBD might be reading our forum. Several of you suggested signing former NYG RB Orleans Darkwa. It now appears he is at St. John Fisher getting a tryout. https://wgr550.radio.com/articles/news/report-bills-worked-out-running-back-orleans-darkwa 3
MiltonWaddams Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 This is a good call. If he has healed, he would be a nice RB3 with potential. We assume Shady and Ivory as 1 and 2, but Cadet is replaceable and older than Darkwa.

RyanC883 Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 Love this front office. We have "enough" RB's on paper. But adding Orleans Darkwa would be a great addition. Injuries happen. Having Shady, Cadet, Ivory and Darkwa give you depth and some versatility.

Now is Darkwa better than Ivory? That's an interesting story.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) This could be as much about keeping the work load early in camp light for mccoy and ivory. Darkwa is a guy that has started and played in this league, have him take reps with the 1s and 2s to spell mccoy and ivory while letting cadet, Jones etc work in the positions they will play on this team 3rd rb and special teams Edited July 26, 2018 by Cheektowaga Chad 1
Wagon Circler Posted July 26, 2018 Posted July 26, 2018 750 yards and 4.4 per carry for a crappy Giants team? This is a no-brainer. Immediately becomes the second best RB on the team. 2
