i think with C. Michael outplaying Turbin for the change of pace back role/ 2nd string and Spencer Ware being a dual threat as a HB/FB that maybe they decide to trade Turbin. I like Turbin But Michael is more explosive and Spencer Ware has a running style that i think the coaching staff likes if he needed to step in at HB. If not i think Turbin will be the best or one of the best 3rd string RB's in the league.

this is all down the road talk but by mid-season i think C. Michael passes Turbin on the depth chart

When would this go down?

CMike and Ware have a lot to work on. Doesnt even seem likely that Ware will be active.

I really don't get the Ware love. I just don't see anything overwhelming there.

Last I heard ..... it will probably be awhile before C Michael buys all the way into their zone blocking scheme. That certainly was the case for the backs that came before him. And, there is no reason to expect them to suddenly abandon what has worked so well for them.

I think Turbin is still #2 on the depth chart, and I have a feeling it will stay that way this season. Michael got a lot of pre-season yards, but Turbin is still a lot more polished in pass protection and no slouch in the running game either. Michael doesn't really give you anything that you wouldn't get from Lynch on 1st and 2nd down, and Turbin is pretty ideal for 3rd and long situations. That being said, I'm sure Michael will get some opportunities.

Turbin will do a better job of protecting his QB then Michael

This.

All due respect I think the op is getting ahead of himself.

Turbin catches the football well.

Since we only have 1 and half TE, we need him.

Ware isn't going to have any value in the regular season for us. Turbin might trip over his shoelaces but at least he will drive forward and get you short yardage when you need it. Plus having him as a receiving threat is going to be important with no TEs.

Maybe so, but Turbin was spun around foolishly by Clay Mathews, on his way to a Wilson sack. Then again, Mathews does that to a lot of people.

Michael will get his touches. You can't keep elite talent shelved like that. The temptation to use him is just too great.

I see Ware as a much better goal line back then Turbin, he has a good lean and powers with his legs when he runs.

I'm down with Turbin to any of the NYC teams for a 3rd Rounder 2014.

Or a 4th in '14 and conditional mid-rounder in '15.

C. Michael is the future at RB for us. I think Lynch is most likely to get traded, that is after this season. After this season he will be 28 years old. He will still have at least 2 or 3 very productive years, which should be attractive to other teams. Lynch would be appealing to a team that thinks it is one RB away from making a deep playoff push or a rebuilding team that wants to instantly infuse a toughness mentality to their team. We may be able to get a 3rd round pick at most for him.

I don't get it either. I kind of feel like a few guys here posted they love him early on and everyone else followed. Same goes for lotu....same few said they didn't like him and now people follow.

People are getting wayyy too high on christine mchael. People with crazy talk like sending lynch away for a 3rd at most?! Look i get it christine has looked exciting and shown burst n wiggle.. He reminds me of AP.. But also remember he has had an injury riddled past.. Already shown that here in the preseason and weve yet to see him in regular season. But as before beyond that you have 2 proven guys infront of him.. Lynch as one of the best rbs in the league and turbin who a ton of people believe can be a starter eventually.. Who showed he can be effective last year and is still getting his legs under him this year after sitting all of training camp basically but has had some nice flashes so far this preseason.

And yea the whiff on matthews upset me lettin him basically have a free shot at russ.. But then i thought about it n gave him a pass for it being clay matthews who will do that to pretty much any back in the league.

All I have to say about this crazy talk is... preseason.
