To me Saquan should be an option. Paying up for him is cheap compared to any other position.

Moore has been around enough to probably have a real good read on most of the players league wide. My thinking is hit up that second or third tier of FA RB. Real bunch of available talent this offseason. I listed off like 7 guys that are young cheap and could rise. Grab two of them. Should at least get one of them that turns out. The plan would be getting two vet young cheap RB that can split things. Then still have Gainwell to contribute to whatever. We all know he’s coaches favorite. Siri’s choice from the draft or whatever. Problem with Gainwell is it’s a new O coming in. So he doesn’t have that advantage anymore. He has to learn the new playbook like everybody else. So very possible outsiders overtake him in the new O. Whether Siri will give up on him or not is another question?

Pretty surprised Browns coach Stefanski beat out DeMeco for coach of the year. I know it was said here. But I thought DeMeco was overwhelming the guy. Just nothing in Houston. Expectations were a five win season. They were competitive at the end versus anybody in the league. Browns just been underachieving so much for the last few years. So them finally just doing something I didn’t see as big deal.

Curious since we will be running Moores offense would we look at a player like Zeke? Obviously he isn’t the below runner he was in Dallas but in a rotation with say a rookie RB…

Would definitely be a far cheaper option then my dream signing of Barkley or even resigning swift 

Why not do both? Swift had good numbers before the collapse and Zeke went cheap to NE. Keep Gains around also and draft a decent one

My fear is trying the west coast offense with Hurts. I don't believe he can handle that at this point. The WC offense needs superior arm strength to be really successful and that is Hurts weakest point. It will be interesting to see the balancing act that is coming. Using Goedert correctly,adding a good slot guy and maybe a TE2 will greatly enhance Hurts chances for success

https://draftwire.usatoday.com/lists/2024-nfl-draft-prospects-sleepers/ WOW they have my WR pick for us at #1. I said before he is the best SLOT WR in this draft. We need to add him. I find Zintner from MIchigan also a capable good choice to try for the RG spot

5. Braelon Allen, RB, Wisconsin

USATSI_21334908.jpg

At only 20 years old Braelon Allen has the added benefit of entering the draft without much tread on the tires and a solid decade of play ahead of him, which is a bit of a novelty for the position.

Allen is still a bit raw but has all the physical tools you could ask for a workhorse back. Allen will need to be coached up a bit as a pass catcher, but his physical skillset and the potential he possesses could see him be one of the higher-ranked backs in the process.

Like him but feel he will go higher than Howie would. So the search continues

https://mutigers.com/sports/football/roster/cody-schrader/17008 I like this kid ALOT Not the best RB,but a late 4th to mid 5th pick which I believe would be in Howies range. Once again,not a basher,but Howie seems to be avoiding those anyhow. I have a tough time reading Howie on RB's. Not really a personal choice due to "cloning" but a Howie choice and that's what I try to find,putting my personal choices on the back burner. The extra year in school could drop him farther down. I don't expect him to start. Maybe after a year of coaching he could find a home in rotation

I don’t see everything changing with the FO here. That would be a move that’s totally against the grain of what Rosie believes in. A RB clearly on the downside of his career. You can’t think RB are the lowest position of career length and actually then after so many years make a move like for Zeke. Looking for a few last miles from a RB just because he knows the system.

Agree... Blount and Sproles were in their primes when we got them.  No shot at getting a cheap vet like Zeke to be part of a cheap committee.

Why does the cheap guy need to be young?

The divisions were just a little different. AFC North slightly better than the South... or maybe more than slightly.... and he lost Chubb very early... and how many QBs did they use?    No doubt Ryan's did a great job...  also no doubt the 2023 Houston team was way more talented than 2022.  Still an awful division.

Like idk Blount???? He was on the downside of his career as well granted he gave us a power RB to for our O… but could argue Elliott gives the same thing

Because id be shocked we sign a RB let alone two RBs lol 

"I definitely think we got emotionally tired, trying to figure out what the problem was…There was some miscommunication from coaches to players, there was some pointing fingers from player to player and there was letting outside voices impact our love for the game and the happiness we had. All of that combined to kind of make us spiral.” BritainCovey

The yards of separation really shrunk this last season. Pretty much down the line receivers averaged a yard less of separation per play compared to last season.

My son read that toward the end of the season many defensive players wouldn't even speak to Desai

Hard to get separation when the D knows what you're gonna do before the play starts.

"I’m sure somebody did it,” Bosa said. "It kind of reminded me of Philly when they had this construction going on outside. It was early in the morning and they were like demolishing a bridge right outside of our hotel. We haven’t had the best luck. But no excuses.” Speaking of the fire alarm going off at the Niners hotel this week.

It’s a big RB FA group this offseason. I think we should sign two FA. Should target two cheap RB FA.

I listed off like six FA options to look at.

Zack Moss, Donta Foreman, AJ Dillon…

Niners scored a TD on their opening drive over 58 percent of the time. That’s some excellent coaching. A great game plan. Having your team ready to play each week.
