He played last year at 1.8 million I believe. In this deep RB class you can find a guy to play at that price for 3 years and do things that he provided.
Its like Michael Thomas as well.
These are guys we retained at a higher price than what they would of gotten in FA last year because of our great lockerroom after 2016.
A year later and now it has been stated that the culture inside the lockerroom was bad and Gase is getting “his guys”.
The only thing that fractured the “culture” of the lockerroom was a group of offensive playmakers that had to deal with Cutler throwing the ball and a group of defensive players who endured one of the worst stretches of offensive football in NFL history with Cutler throwing the ball. They can sell other narratives to someone else.
But we’ll see. Anyway for a team with less than desirable cap issues, you have to trust the draft process to get a suitable replacement far cheaper at RB.
