GreggTX Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 1. Bad break for Moss, but we don't really lose much other than depth. 2. Despite what others say about Yeldon, every time they have given him a chance to dress and play, he has delivered. I have no problem with dressing him at all. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m suggesting that we shouldn’t be content with Singletary or Moss as lead backs because they don’t look like one. I wouldn’t want to pay a RB or draft one high. If there is one BB and McD like in the middle rounds then go for it. We could use some speed there. I wouldn’t hate to see competition for the starting spot at training camp next year.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 It will probably take a miracle to get him back for the SB. More likely he goes straight to IR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get rid of Yeldon and replace him with some speed. 4th rd or lower or a speedy vet at 1-3 mill a year Edited January 10, 2021 by NewEra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moss is decent as a short yardage/time eating kind of back. Singletary is a replacement level guy. I hate spending a first rounder on a back - so maybe we need to look in round 2/3 again. But we need someone with speed to break a few of these runs and ourrun a defense once in a while. Does everyone always forget about Christian Wade? I mean, yeah... nobody other than the Bills know how ready he is (or will be, by next year), but the one thing he does possess that the rest of our stable of RBs don't is electric, breakaway speed. I'm not saying he's the answer, but using 2/3 round pick on an RB for a third year in a row is just not really the best use of your draft capital (IMHO).

Would also keep Allen protected better if they respected the run ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Travis Etienne didn’t look like he was on the doughnut diet in the Sugar Bowl I’d say maybe he was an option. But I completely agree, a dynamic back is needed in this offense. 1 hour ago, Ethan in Portland said: I wanted Dobbins.

His pass pro will be missed more than his running IMHO...he was outstanding as a blocker. Singletary has been too but Moss is a stonewaller versus Singletary more of a "good enough" blocker. Singletary made a key block on the Diggs TD throw to allow Allen to stay in the pocket, Outstanding block 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem some (most?) of the time is that they are running from a standing start in shotgun formation. Sure Thurman did it well but he’s a HOF. IT’s easier to hit the hole if a RB is already moving forward when he gets the handoff. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
