May 25, 20241 yr 19 hours ago, joemas6 said: What does Sanders offer the team?  He is a first and second down RB...gives nothing as far as pass blocking or receiving and nothing on special teams.    He could pay the Eagles to play...still makes no sense. Exactly what you stated a backup RB capable of filling the early down roles in the likely possibility Barkley misses time.  And even spell Barkley on those early downs at times. Sanders was also a pretty solid pass blocker even if he wasn’t a great receiver.  So yea at the price of 2m which is what we paid Boston Scott last year yea id be alright with him as the backup think he is better option then Scott was and what Gainwell offers us now as well.

Gains Ship and the other kid would be ok in rotational RBBC. Would just need to alter the playbook a bit What does it hurt to pay a player of its an upgrade? Obviously wouldn’t pay Sanders contract but finding a guy around that 2m mark for a year like we paid Scott last year that could be an upgrade over Gains don’t see any problem with it.Â

Why pay before you see who gets cut from other teams. I see no rush on this if we add one at all. If we do,fine but no need to rush out before the smoke clears
May 25, 20241 yr Key part of it was WR Terrace Marshall. Was thinking he’s better than his non production has shown in Charlotte so far.

So basically...he sits until Barkley gets hurt....for $2 million.   Boston Scott played special teams.  Like he actually played ... Sanders won't play unless Barkley gets hurt. It's not 2019 rookie Sanders...it's the Sanders that fumbled twice in the Superbowl that they wanted no part of resigning. I realize you are a Penn State fan... but that ship has sailed. Btw...spending $2 mil on Scott when they other 2 guys cost you less... compared to paying Sanders that after Barkley was signed.... I don't think they spend that additional money on the position. Scott was popular in the locker room...and played special teams. Sanders gives neither.

May 26, 20241 yr Dak Prescott’s 189 passes without an interception the most by a quarterback at the Linc, it’s 2nd-most by any quarterback ever at any stadium.

May 27, 20241 yr Author Read where Bark seems really comfortable here. Trying to learn the club culture. I think he will like it much better than NY and I think he will like this Oline better also
May 27, 20241 yr Author https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/eagles-sign-former-first-round-wide-receiver-john-ross-to-one-year-deal/Â Ross actually retired BEFORE Parker,so that theory went up in smoke LOL. Hope he can stick at least as a BU because are still a bit thin in that area if he can't make this comeback work
May 27, 20241 yr Author https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10122656-nfl-coaches-on-hot-seat-before-2024-season-starts Yeah, I said this earlier. Hurts also needs to step it up. If he falters Pickett seems like he could step right in

May 27, 20241 yr So the University of Wisconsin was given a grant from the NFL to study hamstring injuries….with their big WR having hamstring injuries occurring each year since. Pretty wild the foresight that took place for the league to help out the Pack here.

You know that Sanders wasn’t popular in the locker room? Yea he doesn’t give the special teams but he is a better reciever/ runner and blocker then sandersÂ
May 27, 20241 yr Like by all means I’m not willing to trade for Sanders and pay him 7m a year but 2m for a backup RB when our backup RB accounted for 120+ snaps last year. mind you our top RB only had 220… I not against paying that. Lol Just a stupid take to say Sanders isn’t an upgrade our current backups.Â
