NFL on ESPN ‏@ESPNNFL 8m8 minutes ago
Trent Richardson averaged the 2nd worst yds-per-carry in NFL history among players with 500+ attempts (since 1970): 3.31 yds/att

Uhh, no thanks.

Oh there's no doubt he's a bust so far. But I don't mind giving former first round picks a shot. Especially one who was as highly touted as Richardson coming out.

Signing him wouldn't change the fact that we need to address this position early in the draft now with Murray gone.

 

[LAZARUS_LOGAN]

My thoughts too. The guy was often injured and nothing really major if I remember right.

That broken hand last year would have sidelined him for a month in years past. I'd put the over under at 12 games started for Philly next year.

I'm not spouting sour grapes. But I definitely will not miss his fumbling. It always killed us.

He now is playing in a lesser offense, with a lesser QB, a lesser OL, lesser TEs, and lesser WRs.

 

[Omegasupreme]

Hardy and Peterson(somehow) or Spiller/draft pick.

I don't think you can go into this thing hoping Ryan Williams can hold up.

This team is a running team now. Need a dependable back. Needs to be able to pass block too.

We're fucked.

That's where we are all snowed. This is not a running team. It has the capacity to be a running team. The designer of the running game is now on the Redskins and the new running game coordinator in Linehan has the same accusation against him that Garrett, Cameron, Norv Turner, Mike Tice, Hugh Jackson, and Bob Bratkowski have: repetitive passing plays that are sprinkled with obligatory running plays. The QB always takes a beating in these systems and the. The O line gets blamed.

Dallas is not a running team. They lost their running back and the coach who designed his plays. Now they are left with a coordinator and a coach who would rather not run the ball when they can throw it and for all of the hype surrounding this O line, how is it possible that Romo alone was sacked 29 times in 15 games? Something is very wrong and it's going to get worse.

Maybe I should have said they have the perfect personnel to be a running team?


Minus the runner.

Don't fool yourself. Callahan was overrated and the line stunk until Pollack came on board. Callahan coached the worst rushing year in team history with his hand picked olinemen, Livings and Bernadeau.

 

[ThoughtExperiment]

Is Peterson even available? All I've heard is the Vikes want to keep him. He may say he doesn't want to play there, but for 12 mil or whatever I bet he'll change his mind.

 

[Sheik]

Who knows? This is fucked if they can't find a good runner.

 

[Hoofbite]

Dallas' fan base is a confusing mess about contracts.

Restructuring is good because of various reasons, but the cap increasing is one of them.

At the same time, almost any player is too fucking expensive.

Increase the 0% interest credit limit....so we can shop at the Dollar Store.

I thought all the most ignorant Dallas fans were at CZ

After reading some of this thread today, I was wrong

 

[dbair1967]

Murray claiming that signing with Philthy was about having best chance to win the Super Bowl and nothing to do with money.

Yeah, ok Demarco.

 

[Doomsday]

Murray claiming that signing with Philthy was about having best chance to win the Super Bowl and nothing to do with money.

Yeah, ok Demarco.

That's funny right?

Especially when the best chance for him to GET to the Super Bowl was, to not fucking fumble the ball vs. Green Bay.

 

[dbair1967]

Free agents of interest still there:

DE Greg Hardy, DE Derrick Morgan, would think about Michael Johnson but he was awful last yr and wasn't much better the yr before that.

DT Nick Fairley (only if budget incentive laden type deal IMO)

CB Chris Culliver, Parrish Cox, maybe Patrick Robinson (been a bust most of his career, showed some improvement last yr by many accounts)

Maybe S Kendrick Lewis

I still hope we re-sign Rolando McClain, but only if contract isn't out of line and protects us if he melts down off the field.

True, this moronic exaggeration stuff just flushes the chumps. I saw some clown at CZ generalize that Randle who had 4 catches last year and 8 the year before, "has great hands". What's the measure of great?

You need to go back and read scouting reports.

Coming into his draft, some speculated he could be moved to WR because of his hands, route running ability and physical build.

And Callahan was a big fan of Costa. .

 

[Midswat]

Titans sign Orakpo

 

[Midswat]

Were still interested in Derrick Morgan per Mike Garafalo.

 

[dbair1967]

Sounds like Hardy is going to sign with the Raiders.

Derrick Morgan's agent says he wont be signing with Atlanta, which is where locals here thought he'd go.

 

[Midswat]

If not Hardy, why did we restructure Tyron?

 

[Midswat]

Derrick Morgan a Titan. 4 for 27.
