Miller is fast, Knowshon is a great blitz pickup and pass catcher..I get it. But on 3rd and 1 we still have nobody. We needed a power RB. Hickey u failed me.:crazy:

Click to expand...

if we are able to get more push up front, I'm sure we'll convert on more of those opportunities. Lou Polite would of gotten stuffed behind the push this oline gave us last year.
 
Expect more clay at FB just for short yardage
 
Cant wait till August Roster cuts to see what backs are out there....Im chomping at the bit.
 
There could be some quality RB's when teams cut down before the final roster. I would have liked Lache Seastrunk, Kadeem Carey, etc., but we will see what happens.
 
I'd like to see DT get a chance behind an at-least-average offensive line before giving up on him. The dude did make some plays and caught the ball well taboot.

Reggie Bush was the only successful back in recent years cuz he could make so many defenders miss in the backfield. Bush was underrated and certainly under appreciated by the 'Phins (lack-of) brain trust.
But if you open a crease, DT can find it and gain yardage and with any head of steam whatsoever can punish 2nd level defenders.

I'm still on his side and I'm glad he gets another chance.
 
Moreno is our Power back

I was hoping instead of Landry which seemed to be more of a luxury pick and Moreno on a 1 year deal which seems to be more of a need we could of grabbed Hill or Hyde instead of Landry... Makes more sense to me..JMO We need a big power back..
 
I was on the Hyde band wagon too. We could not convert 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 with the backs we had last year. Diane Thomas plays like he is 6'3" 150 lbs. No drive at all.
Hyde would have given us a physical and powerful runner. Instead we added another WR to a group which was one of our teams strong spots(at least not a major concern). We could have picked some WR up in round 4.
Maybe we sign Jones -Drew? Or another cast off?
 
I was hoping we could tell Crowell to leave his guns at home and sign him after the draft. Looks like CLE beat us to it.
 
I had a man crush on Hill thought he'd compliment what we had well but man The Bungles took him early. Id have loo]ved Seastrunk that late. Thats a head scratcher for sure.
 
expect a high pick rb in 2015...good damn class for it too...i doubt you will get anywhere near pick 50 before some of those kids come off the board...mike gillislee may just make it another season

had we stayed put at 50 with the way the board shook out jeremy hill would have been one of my primary targets...
