RB discussion

[blueman]

Seems like all the RBs can block, that's good.

[Boltjolt]

Sproles up the middle small?

He is about 10 lbs heavier.

[Boltjolt]

Jeremy Langford got released from the Bears. He is about Gordons size but i doubt we even sniff at him.

[Fleet]

Jonathon Williams was a personal pick of Lynn's last year. I dont think we make a move but he may have a good a chance as anyone if Lynn still likes him.

[Bolt-O]

You can never have enough Williamses!

[Stinky Wizzleteats+]

I'd rather had Adams's... Thing and cousin It could help our special teams!

[OhioBolt]

I just have a think about having two small backs on the roster, I never liked when we had Woodhead and Oliver, now Oliver and Ekeler, I like each ones talent but they are kind of the same small backs who do the same thing. I like the combination of backs to be your

Feature Back Starter -Gordon
Change of Pace\Backup- Oliver or Ekeler
Thumper Brusier Short Yardage- ? Not on the Roster and I don't think the FB Watt brings that.

Seems like he's a little injury prone but has good quickness. And good size. If I'm the Chargers I'd kick the tires at least.

If Ekeler can do the Woody thing and run those plays its such an added bonus for this offense. Imagine Woody with this group of playmakers?

[richpjr]

I can't imagine making through the season with only 3 rb.

No kidding, especially when 2 of the 3 have injury histories.

[Antonio's Gates]

We should claim Williams and cut Tevi. Nobody is going to claim him and we can stash him on the PS.

[Bolt-O]

Jonathan Williams cleared waivers... There is one spot on the PS...

[Bolt-O]

Denver signs Jonathan Williams to their PS.

[Budsman]

I agree on the two small backs is a bad thing theory. We need a competent 2 down back to spell Gordon and while Oliver "can" do it, he shouldn't. I am optimistic about eckler but just can't say yet. Williams would be solid in our backfield and we can just cut, for the second time, Clemons.

[Fleet]

Based on the moves we have made in the last couple years....smaller fast LBs.....switch to the 43 Under.....intense passing game with the addition of MW etc. It would almost seem to me we are taking a very similar approach to football that the Falcons have been. Not comparing the rush attack of the Falcons but they are pretty good about complimenting each other. Lots of misdirection etc. However i do think Sark is bad news for RBs. I just keep seeing similar trends to Atlanta.

Devonta Freeman - 5'8 - 205 ---------- Brandon Oliver - 5'8 208

Tevin Coleman - 6'1 210 ---------------Melvin Gordon 6'1 215

Terron Ward - 5'7 199 ----------------Austin Ekeler 5'8 195
