Re: 2019 Off-Season "Around The League" Thread
Gurley in a year or two is going to be just another poster boy of why you don't pay RBs IMO. Maybe even this year. Whoever pays Bell this offseason is going to feel that burn a year or two down the line also.
The Rams, especially, should have exercised more restraint with that. I won't call Gurley a system back as he's better than that, but he clearly benefits from playing in that system, and I think you'd get pretty good results from any decent back slotted in there. Anderson has kind of shown that.back on twitter

Re: 2019 Off-Season "Around The League" Thread
Superior line with average RB > superior RB with average line.
Its why I'm puzzled people keep saying we need bell or a 1st round RB.
Unless your line is solid or your drafting the next Barry sanders, LT, Lynch or Barkley......you probably are reaching for RBsBurn it down

Re: 2019 Off-Season "Around The League" Thread
I posted this on the Super Bowl thread, but thought it fits here too :
To all those who had predicted the Patriots were deteriorating, I am reminded of a quote by Mark Twain, “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.”

Re: 2019 Off-Season "Around The League" Thread
Ex, I don't understand? You imply this is "the Super Bowl" as if it's the absolute grandest game after a long season and playoffs (and I agree), but you wrote "I am so glad that I did not watch that game. And yes, it is absolutely ignorant of me to start this thread when I didn’t even watch the game" in another thread (Jared Goff sucks) that you started. That reminds me of the person who complains about a politician, but when asked who they voted for, say "I didn't vote." So, to me you kind of negated your own premise... Bc

Re: 2019 Off-Season "Around The League" Thread
I'm still open to drafting a back high if it's a Gurley or Barkley or Elliott type...just have to accept it's a 5 year player, 6 at most with a year on the tag, and you probably aren't getting anything past that (by your own choice due to it not being smart financially to sign RBs).
I don't think what the Ravens have done since Rice, which is rely mostly on street FA or mid-late round JAG type guys, is the right approach any more than I think giving a RB a second contract is.
I do agree that a great OL + average back is a much better combination than great back + average OL.back on twitter
