    I’m scratching my head at this though because his numbers weren’t stellar in Carolina. He got cut from 2 teams.

    Almost same deal with Amari Cooper? Was terrible in Oakland.

    Were these players phoning it in at their previous teams?

    The entire Dallas team looks exhausted.
    Let’s see next week if he breaks the 50 mark.

    Why wouldn't he? He's been on a tear. Last 2 games of the season he had 299 yards and 2 TD's.

    You and me both. I wanted him over Ridley as a backup to Connor. Ridley sucks and has always sucked. He had 1 good year in NE, that's it. There's been 100 RB's that have had good runs in NE. It's a very RB friendly system. Ridley is terrible and should have been cut a long time ago. CJA is far from perfect, but he's much better than Ridley. I don't know why the hell this team has to be so conservative all the time. So frustrating

    He was brought up by a few people when he became available and again after Conner got hurt. Sure, he looks fat, but the guy can clearly play. That wasn't the first big game he has had since signing with the Rams.

    In September he was signed with the Panthers so we couldn't do anything with him. He was cut in November and that was when Disco started that thread and also Bell didn't come in making CJ a nice fit for us a insurance.

    The Steelers believed their RB's were going to be Bell, Conner, and Samuels. No one could had predicted the Bell wasn't going to return.

    I am sure the Steelers wished they would had drafted x y and z players if they had a crystal ball to see the future.

    Yes but that was why CJ made sense then he was cut at the deadline for Bell to return and when Bell didn't we had an open spot and a need. The need being insurance as we seen when we lost JC for a few games and yes Samuels played great but we needed more after him too.

    I guess the organization had their reasons for not signing him. There are always unknown factors.

    At this point what is the point of saying we should had signed this guy or that guy?
