Hey guys....we still lead the NFL in cap space! Why are we arguing about someone else's money again?

You can add more quality players obviously if you do care about value. Smile

Because apparently it's the cool thing to do around here. Piss and moan because we spent someone else's money! Haha.

With 60M+, we'd have to make some more stupid overpayments to spend the rest of it. Doesn't sound like that's something you or Krazy care for.

Also the improvement of the D plays into ivory signing as well. No more playing from behind means blake doesnt have to chuck it around all game and we can set the pace with lots of carries between these two.


Assuming the defensive rebuild goes accordingly.

Quote:Yeldon never got a chance to be the foaline back. We passed in the redzone more than any team in the nfl.. our oline run blocking was awful. Ivory in my opinion is not any better on the goaline than yeldon. Ill say it again, yeldon was one of the best on the goaline in collegiate history.


Its done though so o well, I hope Ivory helps us win but I really want yeldon to be the franchise back we hoped he would be when we drafted him. Get Vernon tomorrow and we can all agree its a big win this off season


I don't think Yeldon is a Peterson or Lynch level back. As much as I like him, I do feel we need to be in the 1-2 punch world, and I would definitely like Yeldon to get the higher number of reps, 70/30 or something, but I'm happy with having 2 quality backs.


As for Vernon.... Preach brotha!

Nobody is saying to spend the rest of it, but you have to imagine there is a line drawn in there somewhere that the team doesn't want to spend past. Every dollar not overspent is a dollar that can go towards another player... Or a dollar that can go towards overspending for high end difference makers in future years. It may be the difference in signing or not signing a Gipson or Weddle or other 2nd or 3rd tier free agents. Its not a crazy concept.

Yeldon a quarter of the year due to injuries.  I believe he's also had some nagging injuries in college.  Not saying he is "fragile freddy" or anything like that, but I am glad the team went out and got another very good RB.  You need at least 2 in this league.

 

I'm done watching Toby, and frankly I'm done watching the old running QB wearing #16 try to be a running back. 

 

Give it to TJ and give it to Ivory.  

 

Oh, and please don't let that fast Auburn RB touch the ball again.

we can sign gipson or waddle tomorrow and not worry about it one bit.

 

We can give Weddle a 2 year 30 million dollar deal fully guaranteed and we'd still be fine salary cap wise.

Relax.

We need one solid OL signing to really help the run game... If/when we lock that up... My god.... Yeldon/Ivory vs Allen/Allen/Thomas... Pick your poison.
