Turbin Being Signed

[oldhawkfan]

What Turbin lacks in talent he makes up in knowledge of the playbook. He and Lynch if signed will be counted on heavily. Any RB signed to the roster not familiar with the playbook will logically not be able to contribute as much. Pickings are slim this time of year.

Turbin is worthless even as a body. One of the most uninspiring worthless running backs that ever graced the Seahawks. Very bad signing. I certainly look forward to Turbin tackling himself in a wide open field for no gain.

Not excited myself but, you got any better ideas?

CJ Anderson, Jay Ajayi, DeAngelo Williams (if in shape), etc, etc. There are SO many better options on the market. It isn't even the same offense he played in with the Seahawks.

Turbin is worthless trash.

Deangelo Williams??? You should've stuck with just two names.

DeAngelo Williams was decent at passblocking and was still a decent short yardage back on the Steelers. Even at his worst he was more useful than Robert Turbin ever was for the Seahawks.

This is terrible. Pete must of made this decision

 

[Bobblehead]

CJ and Jay Ajayi would have been good pickups, CJ did a lot for the Rams last year I believe.

We aren't using the same playbook that we were using when he was here.... This is Schottenheimer, not Bevell's offense.

We need the bodies, bring him on.

Tell us how you really feel man. Don't hold back

I like your signature by the way 8)

According to most on this board it’s all Pete, the OC doesn’t matter.

This is Schottenheimer, not Bevell's offense. Oh really?

They need guys to play in 6 days. Getting RBs that have never been in the system may be tough to go with in such a short turn around. I'm not too excited about Turbin, would rather have CJ, but I would be able to understand this move if its based on that they need a body that is somewhat familiar with what hey do and have a rapport with Russell.

 

[Cyrus12]

Let's face it...he only gotta job here because RW is his buddy. He definitely is not worth being signed. Sad that the qb has that kind of influence. I question if they are serious about trying to win.

Except he hasn't played in what, atleast 2 years?

 

[OrFan]

Can we cancel this signing and get a folding lawn chair instead? It would be cheaper, provide more, and will not trip over itself.

And? Turbin hasn't played in over a year, and he only appeared in two games, and the year previously only six games. Turbin's last full season was in 2016. He's only played in eight games since then. In his last season he had four attempts.

 

[QuahHawk]

Not liking the Turbin pick up too much. CJ or Ajayi would be my preferred

We wouldn't expect anything else from you..............

 

[Subzero717]

If hes backing up Marshawn, okay. If hes the starter, CJ Anderson was a better option.

 

[ducks41468]

Turbin hasn't even played for us since 2014. Like I get that we run one of the least imaginative offensive schemes in the league so the playbook is probably the exact same, but this just reeks of a PeteBall move, bringing back scrubs from 5 years ago because you've lost all ability to think outside the box.

What year is this?

Rumor has it, that the verbiage didn’t change.
That in itself is a plus.

Do you know otherwise?

Lmao. I heard Chris Clemons is available too.
