Rawls to IR

[Hasselbeck]

Current FA RB's .. (scroll past the guys that are signed obviously)

Montee Ball is an interesting name on there. I have a hard time believing he's as bad as he looked in Denver.

He went to Wisconsin, I would be inclined to say he's as bad as he looked in Denver.

Damn, hurry back, Beast.

On that lisy Demitrious Bronson makes sense. He played here last year

Good idea . . . physical runner if he is healthy.

Panther fan sending sincere condolences. My heart truly sank when I heard this news. I hate injuries. The Panthers may have lost Benwikere for the year today as well.

 

[MrThortan]

Wiki says Demitrious is signed with the Dolphins.

 

[The Outfield]

Edit: Depending on how Lynch is recovering, how many games do we need to sign a running back for? I don't think Rawls' or Lynch's production can be found in free agency. Just need a guy who won't turn the ball over and get the short, steady yardage.

Was kind of hoping Fred Jackson could do that...

 

[Hasselbeck]

Leon Washington
Steven Jackson

Would be great options in 2010.

Jonas Gray is moderately tempting. He's on the Dolphins practice squad.

 

[hburn21]

Id go after brynce brown, he's at least an explosive runner

 

[Hasselbeck]

Wiki says Demitrious is signed with the Dolphins.

Wiki is lying.. he's a FA.

Silver lining:

We still have the Beast. Despite the injury, he's got some rest over these last few weeks. We need him now more than ever. Hoping for a Week 16 or 17 return.

This would be devastating... And it still kind of is. But the Beast waits in the wings. Not many teams have depth like that.

Did he just casually walk on a broken ankle without even grimacing? It sucks he's out but what a monster. I have no doubt he'll pick up next year where he left off.

The bone(s) is probably cracked. Unless someone posts the MRI of the ligament damage, we are clueless.

 

[Rocket]

Shaun Alexander still looks like he's in good shape

Best idea out of all the others... IMHO.

 

[Rob12]

I'd grab Kendall Hunter.

Can't Jackson fill in against the hapless Browns and Rams?

Heard Jonathan Stewart was out. Is he OK? Minor injury?

 

[JPatera76]

I'd grab Kendall Hunter.

Him and Bronson are about the onlyy ones on that like i remotely feel like could manage the reaminign games.

Still need a No. 3 back. And really, we may just be down to Fred Jackson because Harris didn't help himself today. Rawls was gashing the Ravens and Harris looked terrible and fumbled inside the 20. Can't do that with PC as your coach.

im not opposed to getting Willis Mcgahee, he would know the system as far as running just different verbage. he's had a year off

Been more than a year hasn't it? Seems like he's about 40.

Sad news indeed. Feel for the guy. Hopefully he'll pick up where he left off next season. Maybe Ben Tate would be a good replacement until Lynch comes back. No one else strikes me as good option available.
