Next year he'd cost 4.75 mil.  They may elect to keep things cheap in the RB room with Fournette an a rookie deal, Williams, who is set me make 600K, and a late round pick. Corey Grant may or may not be part of the equation as we don't know how he'll run after an achilles rehab. Yeldon is anybody's guess.  I think they'll let TJ walk.

I certainly didn't think Hyde would underwhelm the coaches to the point he'd be a healthy scratch, but Williams showed why he leap-frogged him on the depth chart.

Just my opinion, but I would keep Fournette, Hyde, Williams and perhaps work a deal with Yeldon.  Of the four Yeldon has played the best this season.  The problem is, what would he cost?  Is he worth "starter money"?  Part of me says no, yet he filled that role pretty well this season (for what it was).  I imagine the team will probably let him test free agency and perhaps place a bid on him.

As far as Hyde, I still scratch my head wondering why he was not used more.  He's a good back, a compliment to Fournette and good insurance should Fournette get hurt again.

Again, just my opinion I think those three plus a rookie would be a pretty good stable of running backs.
