spartan19 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Beane hates Whaley. That just about wipes out Whaley's draft classes. Heads up Nick O'Leary, Shaq, and John Miller(who is about to get cut for tomato can Vlad). Jonathon Williams looked really good. Beane couldn't get a pick at the very least? The back up to Shady is Joe Banyard? WTF?

Nostradumbass Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 McDermott and Beane have a long, long ways to go before they show me they have any half of Doug Whaley's eye for talent procurement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgrochester55 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 This is one that I do not get. If this team is truly tanking, I would rater see what Jonathan Williams can do than a few career backup RB's in their late 20's and early 30's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreddieJizzle22 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Dareus and Hughes are next. Everything Whaley did was AWFUL... apparently. These new guys are sooooo much smarter.(sarcasm) Wait, so because Whaley's gone, we're supposed to like him again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this team is truly tanking, I would rater see what Jonathan Williams can do than a few career backup RB's in their late 20's and early 30'sThat is why it isn't a tank.

nucci Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Did we release Jim Brown? no but we keep cutting players...eventually you have to field a roster of competent players....not all are superstars...you need decent backups.

thurst44 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I don't get it. But they're keeping Jones? Ugh. I've officially hit my tipping point. Keeping Jones has nothing to do with running backs. They like him at gunner. That one makes sense. We get bent out of shape about them keeping players for ST abilities (at least some here do), but when we have bad special teams, that's no fun. While I like Banyard, I don't get keeping him over Jonathan Williams. Letting Gillislee go made sense b/c you had a young player ready to move into a spot that has been historically plug-and-play, and grooming Williams for McCoy's spot should he slow down made sense. I'm wondering if maybe there's a running back who got cut elsewhere that McDermott has his eye on. Or, I guess, they'll be taking an RB with one of their hundred picks next year. All that said, I'm pretty close to my tipping point too. John Miller being cut or traded, which seems almost likely now, would make me feel like this whole roster churn had more to do with a near-obsession with getting rid of recent picks that were not his. I've been denying this up til now, but this move is just peculiar....doesn't really hurt the team next year that much, but seems out-of-line with the other moves.

Terrakon Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 We haven't made the playoffs in 17 years,yet we should just keep the same players? He was young, so what? He had a good run in the 4th PRESEASON game, so what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 @john_wawrow With Tolbert expected to be 3rd down back, as I've been suggesting for a month now, JWilliams proved expendable.
