Why is everyone rushing to sign RBs?

Howie is sleeping until the broken down/cheap vet time of year.

I would take Dobbins but along with another top guy 

Thrilled we avoided Pollard.

19/year for an up and coming pass rusher. I’m not surprised.

So we have dumb franchises doing dumb things right out of the gate. Bears and Titans. Way to go guys.

Wondering the same.

Last year RBs were getting nothing and they were all whining and everyone was saying RBs were going the way of the dinosaur then bam first few hours of FA two RBs sign for good money🤷‍♂️

Pollard gets 8mil a year

In today’s salary cap, that’s a good price when the top guys are getting 30+m$ a year. His last two healthy seasons have been 8 sacks and 12.5 sacks, and he’s super young

It's like every offseason teams fight over who gets to mess up the market more

Seems like a hefty chunk for a guy who's never played a full season and has been good, but not elite.

Barkley will fetch 10-12/yr

I heard his kids are in school here and he would rather not uproot them. If we get Saquan. He NEEDS to be paired up with a tougher in between the tackles RB, and no not Scott or Gainwell

Really?  the Eagles need someone bigger than the 230 pound Barkley?

I'm always in favor of "add bigger back",  but I thought that 230 pound Barkley fell under the category of big back.  Adding 2 big backs (Barkley being one) sounds great to me though.  

I got a list of 230+ RB/FB/TE types who can carry the ball.  It's not particularly easy to find 230+ pound ball carriers,  they're RBs in HS, then LBs in college, typically.

Pollard to Tennessee, which means Henry is less likely there.

Makes Josh Sweats deal a steal.

Incoming Barkley 2/20 from the Eagles.

Unless...

I’d do 3y/30 if Swift is getting 24. He’s awesome out of the backfield

Yeah but with the cap increase nothing surprises me anymore. Every contract looks inflated these days IMO.

Yep, and bumping it up for every other team. Idiots.
