Ok so I couldn't find the thread asking for cheap FA RBs, I'm just gonna post this here.

Dwayne Washington, NO or Jonathan Williams, IND, would be nice.

Either should cost less than any day 2 rookie RB, with no draft pick, both 25, both from compatible blocking schemes and similar offenses, both have put good tape lately and are well rounded, running, blocking, receiving.
 
Well good luck with that. Is this the lost and found for wayward posts?

I personally think we shouldn't invest another dime in a RB without first getting an offensive line capable of supporting the run game and that is able to protect the passer. Til then it won't matter who the RB and QB's are.
 
Isn't there a guy that plays for the Chargers that will be a FA.
Or is there two guys from the Chargers?

DRAFT ONE, especially since we likely will be a committee backfield.

The only reason why that work in N.E because they got great Qb.. than when brady ain't playing good defense and referees help them out.
 
gimme JK Dobbins, Najee Harris, Kylin Hill, AJ Dillon or Zach Moss via draft... with Perine, Gaskins, Laird & Cox in the competition mix

Personally I think we should only add one through the draft this year and roll with our depth into next year. Only reason for that is there are so many other holes we need to focus on so adding a RB in next years draft makes more sense than spending on a FA now. Maybe a day 3 RB or an unfa to add to the mix this year with a day 1 or 2 RB if it makes sense in terms of value/talent left.

The offensive line needs to be a focus to keep our QB protected and to establish some kind of effective running game. That alone will help our current RBs. But with DE issues, secondary needs, LB depth, and possibly another QB added..I just don't see why they would spend on a FA RB this year when 2020 is going to be the first year with a legitimate attempt at adding talent. But hey, if it gets to a point where all that they could do in a FA scenario is to add a RB then sure. Step 1 is simply protect your QB and block effectively for your RB. If they can assemble a legitimate line through the draft and FA then by all means...have at it

I like them all too but I'd rather get minimum salary FAs than to spend draft picks.

Idk when or if Gaskins will come back.

Dobbins is a late second and Harris an early 3rd. We could do either but I rather spend those picks in the trenches.

Dillon, Hill or Lamical Perine would be nice in day 3.

Dwayne Washington
Lamical
Samaje
Laird

And Cox at FB.
 
Understand the low value placed on rbs especially workhorse types with all the committee usage but wouldn't it be a prudent use of resources/valuation to use some of the 125 million plus cap space on a legit fa RB like a derrick Henry (just a for instance if he gets free which I doubt) instead of using a 3rd rd pick or God forbid higher which should Be used on a front 7 or o line pick? Even a top RB salary in fa is gonna be around 10 mill or so....just wait till schreff is asking for 17 million. Just seems better to get cheap o line on first contract rather the cheap RB. I think hunt would fit like a glove if not for his past.
 
There is absolutely no reason to invest highly in the position this year. Spend a couple day 3 picks if necessary and NO NO NO big money FAs on the position.

People continue to advocate for the same things that led to this current tank/reset.

Pure insanity.

Yeah but hopefully if we invest in decent running backs during FA we can invest the draft in that OL
