It's absolutely maddening.Christ. They really are keeping two FBs. Maybe they are just for the extra waiver guys they intend to get.
When you spend a 1st round pick on an every down back it is absolutely stupid to keel McFadden. Good GMs don't do that. Period.I don't understand holding onto these FBs. But I'm glad we have McFadden. Morris can't catch or block and Zeke's a rookie. Letting a technically savvy veteran that averaged 96 YPG while starting go makes no sense. He's also only costing us 1.5 mil per year. There's no reason not to keep him.
Jamal Lewis was the 5th overall pick. The Ravens didn't cut Priest Holmes for no reason.When you spend a 1st round pick on an every down back it is absolutely stupid to keel McFadden. Good GMs don't do that. Period.
Who said anything about cutting him when we had trade offers for him?Jamal Lewis was the 5th overall pick. The Ravens didn't cut Priest Holmes for no reason.
I don't get the logic in saying getting injured makes somebody not worth keeping. Roethlisberger hurt himself riding a motorcycle without a helmet, doesn't mean he wasn't an asset to his team afterward.Who said anything about cutting him when we had trade offers for him?
Plus the Ravens didn't have Alfred Morris already as a backup and Priest Holmes wasn't a dumb ass who injured himself outside of football.
Why is anyone surprised by this. McFadden pulled his act together to get a contract with a decent season last year only to befall an injury. It's been his history. Now he will hang around for the year like he has on prior teams.Oh for fuck sakes! You would think this team was run by some of our idiot fans over on CZ.
So we keep the worthless POS who injures himself being a complete dumb ass and likely two fucking FBs?
What. The. Fuck?
Who from that list would you have rather kept?Christ. They really are keeping two FBs. Maybe they are just for the extra waiver guys they intend to get.

OkoyeWho from that list would you have rather kept?
I'm not surprised. It just shows how completely idiotic our owner is. Should have gotten a pick from him while we could have. That's what a smart GM would have done.Why is anyone surprised by this.

Traylor over Kevin Smith, for one. He is the closest thing we have to Hanna on the roster.Who from that list would you have rather kept?
That was my thought also. Or hell, if you want to keep the 2nd FB then I'd have kept Traylor over Escobar.Traylor over Kevin Smith, for one. He is the closest thing we have to Hanna on the roster.
I guess you believe EVERY injured guy is a malingerer as well?
Heath and Wilcox say "hi"That was my thought also. Or hell, if you want to keep the 2nd FB then I'd have kept Traylor over Escobar.
It amazes me some of the POS players that we ended up keeping.
