Any RBs available ?

Love Gaskin. He has the heart and drive but he's just not an every down running back in my eyes. Love him as a scat back

Too late to do anything there. You'd have to wait until the draft and/or offseason.

Let me guess..... Because he had a fumble on a very good defensive play (his first of the season) or because he dropped a pass on that 3rd and 2 on a big hit????

Well also he just kind of sucks? He won’t be the starter week 1 next year that’s for sure.
 
No need to trade for anyone. They had their chance at multiple RBs in the draft like Taylor, Dobbins, Swift, etc. and. chose to go elsewhere. They tried to sign Bell who was only available bc the Jets are trash.

Now they have to lie in their bed until the off-season.
 
Relax, yes Gaskin is limited. We couldn’t fill every need in one year, guess what? It’s not Madden football, things take time in the NFL. The RB and speedy WR will be addressed in the off-season
 
I think the Bell situation was one the organisation thought was worth pursuing but realistically I don’t see any other RB out there worth giving picks up for.

If Saquan Barkley hadn’t got injured, he may have been the only other back worth looking at.

I personally hope we somehow draft Travis Etienne. He has all the skills.
 
For those that are saying it's too late, I believe the trade deadline is Tuesday. We need a DT and a RB. Nothing to do with the fumble at all. Gaskins is a limited player that has to do a lot of joking because he cant break a lot of tackles. That juking keeps him from hitting top speed and picking up good yardage.
 
Top results for RB’s teams could trade for are...
Kerryon Johnson
Jaylen Samuels
Jordan Howard
Duke Johnson
Brian Hill

So yeah, not much talent there.
 
Trading for a RB is folks gold, I said at the time we should have been looking for one with our 3rd first rounder, anyone of CHE, swift, Taylor, Akers or Dobbins would have been an immediate upgrade. We also missed a trick on Gurley when he was cut and what the hell we we thinking with Howard, what is up there, so many opportunities today to put a big back in to grind out short yardage and ours isn't even active.

I also think we should have used a high pick on one of the multiple WRs in this draft, there is a distinct lack of weapons on this team, that's got to be fixed in the draft or FA next off season. Would have loved to have seen a Jeudy , Raegor, Shenault, Jefferson, People's Jones, Aiyuk or Claypool augmenting our two big wideouts who don't get open nearly often enough. We had the picks to grab at least one of these guys, we did get Bowden via a trade and Perry in the 7th, but both obviously need a lot of work since they are not getting opportunities.
 
For all the crapping on Haskin, you're simply not going to find better without a mega deal...

They had a plan and stuck to it. Trenches and defense first. Offense in 2021. Gurley and his slow feet would look just as bad as Howard with our line.
 
I think it's possible that Zeke, Gurley, gio bernard, Mike Davis, Philip Lindsay, devontae Freeman, miles sanders would all be available to be traded.
 
I'll be glad when the trading deadline is over...
 
Need a wr asap. I can do without Butterfinger Williams. Not a starter material. And i still not trust the health of Paskers.
