Our Shady McCoy

No, but Ka'Deem Carey could be our Shady McCoy. Although, I don't think he'll be around when we pick in the second round. I'd be happy with the consolation prize (Tre Mason) however! :up:

No!! Not high in Carey.. Running backs are a fine a dozen and 99% of teams identify sold players late In draft. I'm ok with Tate.. But other than that draft someone late.. Were the only team with pathetic backs that were drafted

Thought I was the only one. He doesn't do anything remotely better than the other backs in this class besides fighting for yards. Would rather Sankey.
 
I would take MJD over Gillisee or Denial Thomas without blinking. All three are just role players. MJD runs with more authority and power than both of them...even at his age and mileage.
We need to take a 5-10 225lb all purpose workhorse back in the next draft to compliment Miller. Someone that will remind us of Ricky Williams without the yoga and herb.

Running backs are not a dime a dozen. That kind of thinking got us Lamar Miller, Mike Gillislee, and Donald Thomas.
 
The only difference between Miller and McCoy is McCoy is much more talented. Miller is a guy that looks great in combine and is solid on field McCoy is a stud period

What I was gonna say. I'm tired of hearing that. If they're a dime a dozen in every draft why is the league (and us) not overflowing with good/great rb's?
 
Comparing Lamar Miller to Shady McCoy is like comparing Rishard Matthews to Calvin Johnson.
 
miller is a beast, you can see flashes of it since he had his first playing time.

it seems that miami has a hard time figuring out what a specific player is great at and using that to an advantage. its been seen time and time again, a dolphin player gets released and flourishes under another system/coach..

lamar miller is a good player, they need to know how to use him, its that simple.
 
so wait, we're going to have our own version of the most talented RB in the NFL (maybe the only exception being AP). It won't be Miller, definitely not MJD or Tate, and likely no one in the draft will be as talented. Just because we get the Eagles QB coach doesn't mean we automatically can replicate the performance of their best player.
 
Well Pouncey was talking about 1500 yards but not sure he said how many seasons lol
