billieve420 Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 There are a ton of RBs even if we don't draft one in the 2nd round. Need a better compliment to Singletary and not like this FO would bring McCoy back anyway.

Rather a third/fourth/ or fifth round pick on a RB instead. Expand at 31 with a 4.6 yards per carry average ? He's be perfect as a role player and versatile it's a question of can he swallow his ego here where he once starred? They will always go somewhere else and do it- I agree he's a perfect fit and well liked 1
Bookie Man Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 There's a reason he was often a healthy scratch last year 1

I don't think Shady left on bad terms, just a money deal. After Singeltary the cupboard is totally empty - Wade, DiMarco, Yeldon. I also think he would benefit from the upgraded line. He had a bunch of turnstile blockers when he was here. Expand Absolutely not. We don’t need another 30+ year old back that the Coaches are reverent to, sucking up critical carries for no yards ala Frank Gore in the Playoff Game. Listening to John Murphy talk about how LeSean knows his place in this league, and how he deserves 10 carries a game.

billsbackto81 Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 Love Shady, but we already have that type of back. We need a between the tackles battering ram that picks up the tough short distance yards late in a game. 1

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 If they sign Shady it will be like they learned nothing from the Gore signing. A old running back that has visibly lost agility and speed. Go young and stay young at RB. 1
SCBills Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) Can we go RB in the 3rd/4th, or do we immediately have to go to an aging old RB? Edited April 24, 2020 by SCBills
CarolinaBillsFan Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 I think there are better options available.
Forward Progress Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) I came in here to say, "No", but somebody... well, everybody stole my answer. I loved Shady while he was great - he was always prone to the negative play but he broke enough big plays to make a difference. In his last year with us, he still had lots of negative plays without the big plays to make it worth it. Edited April 24, 2020 by Forward Progress

I would think this is what happens: 3rd or 4th round RB. Even if they don't draft a RB (highly unlikely), let Shady retire.

No thanks.....
