You have a first round pick invested in Etienne. You cannot fault Pederson nor Baalke here for making this decision.

It makes sense on paper. It makes business sense. Doesn't matter what we think or feel Robinson's value is. Ultimately the running back position is not valued the way it used to be in the NFL because we're simply not in that throwback era anymore where running it 40 times per game is cool.

Factor in the injuries, it's a hard sell. All we can do is move forward as a fanbase and just hope like hell that everybody stays healthy from the RB room and, again, winning cures all. Nobody is going to give two [BLEEP] and a solid [BLEEP] if this team starts winning again. Denver. That's winnable. Las Vegas. That's winnable. Everything else remaining on the schedule after that is going to be tough.

It's essentially doing JRob a favor. Who knows. Maybe he was going to be benched in favor of Snoop anyway.

Hasty has some juice. We know ETN has juice so let's see what Snoop has. 

Just please get this team some outside receivers. Zay isn't it (although it was nice for a hot second) and Marvin is old. Young blood on the outside.

Getting the seasons we got from JRob as a UDFA and netting a 6th from him when he likely walks next year is not terrible. Though I probably would have preferred to use him as our 2 in the 1-2 punch. Maybe they want speed and more speed with Hasty and ETN and JRobs YAC and YPC didn't matter to them.

As per the WRs
Even if it were just a top 15 first round wr to pair with zay and Kirk next year I'd feel better. MJJ can still make some good catches but it's a young man's game.
