Dude has the most enjoyable stiff-arm we've seen in a long time.  I hope he can stay healthy this time.

I’m a huge Clement fan. He’s a damn solid 3rd back.

I think it's a pretty poor move really. He left because well he can't stay healthy, nobody else wanted him and now he's back? I don't like to root against players but I'm hoping he doesn't make the roster because if he does that's bad for the team.

Was healthy his rookie season. One year was a knee, other was his shoulder. Not like it’s repetitive injuries of the same type. If we don’t want anyone with multiple injuries on this team we won’t have enough starters. 100 yards in the SB. That earns him another try at a full season from me. He’s a 3rd RB not your starter.

I will always Root for Corey but he’s been getting injured too much.  I hope he stays healthy cause he’s an excellent back up and special teams player.

But he's not played the last two years due to injury. You need your third guy to be available just in case he's called upon not on the sideline unable to help.

I've always liked Corey. I'm honestly not sure he'll make the team but there's no harm in letting him compete.

Eh, when healthy he’s a damn solid RB and ST guy. How about just root for him to be healthy instead of rooting for someone to not make the team?

I'm saying you need your depth guys to be healthy, to be reliable. Clement hasn't managed that the last two years.

I suspected that he'd be re-signed at some point. 

So did I. I’m sure they got a favorable report on his shoulder to pick him back up. I’m happy he’s here.

Honestly makes it look worse they didn't take Dobbins in 2nd. They didn't get a back in draft and bring a guy who's always hurt back.

People are complaining about drafting a QB2, because they’d rather have a RB2-3?  Dobbins wouldn’t overtake Sanders here IMO.

Thanks for the SB Corey, but not a fan of this move. I would have prefered Freeman or Hyde. We basically have Sanders and two 3rd down backs, one of which can't stay healthy. Maybe they actually like Holyfield.

Could wind up with both.

Warren could make the squad over Clement anyway, but I like Corey when he's healthy.

And don't forget Hurts: the fullback disguised as a QB!

People also need to remember, this only puts him on the 90 man roster. He's not a lock by any stretch to make the final roster.

Correct. This is a chance to compete. He deserves it.

Just have to hope he can play. I like the kid, grew up a few mins away from me. He just cant stay healthy. Hopefully this year is different for him.

Low risk signing.  If he can’t stay healthy or gets outplayed they cut him.  Seems pretty simple.
