    RB Karlos has been released which secures our lack of RB depth.

    We should draft a RB in top 3 rds..... Latavious Murray looking better by he minute ..

    Think maybe a suspension is coming? They don't sit on a guy for an entire year, sign him to a futures deal and then suddenly cut him the first day of free agency if something isn't going on.

    Maybe suspension, maybe screwed up again who knows. Murray would be nice, however he's being looked at by others... Suppose to be visiting Seattle... Our team won't get into a bidding war

    dreamius smith, trey williams, fitzgerald toussaint, gus johnson, brandon brown-dukes and le'veon bell. i'm pretty sure we will pick up a RB in the draft and probably some udfa's too. i got faith in fitz.:cool:

    They can find another RB in the 4th rd, this draft is deep at the position.

    It honestly doesn't matter whom they have in the cupboard if they won't use them outside of injury.

    Had these discussions a ton over the last couple of years, but seriously... They need to get Bell a backup who is gonna be used and who can make a difference each and every game. Bells not made of glass by any means, but it'd be nice to have a complimentary piece in place to ward off the wear and tear and occasional injury bug a atleast a few times a game, not to mention keep a man in whatever type of rhythm throughout the seasons rigors

    Sorry for the necroposting but it appears our speculation was pretty accurate. He was suspended for a year for violating the league's substance abuse policy. So that would be the reason he was cut a month after signing a futures contract after being on the team while suspended all last season. Vince went to bat for him but the guy just threw it away. What a waste.
