Im shocked we signed him period. He's Cooked.
Nah, he's got a little left

He's not a pro bowler anymore but I don't believe he's completely finished.

He still has some burst and wiggle and that alone will make him effective.

I'm with @Bill Shatner -- I think he's probably the best RB on the roster right now, although that isn't saying much with this group.

I think he can look okay in the limited snaps he's out there. But I think he's always going to be bamged up or have something going on. Expensive roster spot for a guy like that. Not financially but for what you'll get out of him.

He will hang out on the PS and get pulled up if or when. I would hope he is a break glass type of call up.

I am not expecting much. Shit, I thought Lawson was a slick signing. He had workout videos too.

I hope so, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I think the idea here is to roll with the hot hand in any given game and hope to get like 3-4 solid games each out of Elliott, Dowdle and Cook, which would more or less cover you for the season.

Mix in Vaughn here and there and it could theoretically be enough.

You also cannot afford two RB specialists that do not play teams. A shot across the bow to the nose rings?

I wonder though, because originally the plan was Zeke and Freeman, which is basically the same situation.
Freeman was supposed to be a big times special teams guy. No idea if he actually was but they sold him as such at one point. Not a return man but the other special teams stuff.
