Marshawn Lynch - Trademark - 01-17-2016
Given Hill's recent struggles with fumbling if Lynch was to be done with the Seahawks do you think the Bengals should try and sign him ?

Nah...
RE: Marshawn Lynch - Fan_in_Kettering - 01-17-2016
Let's trade up and steal Ezekiel Elliot instead.

Would love me some Beastmode. Don't see it happening, though. Don't think the Bengals will spend that kind of money in FA.
There's three teams that would probably be in on him. Cowboys, Colts, and Browns. Browns have nobody, I don't see any way the Colts keep Gore around to earn his $3m roster bonus, and the Cowboys are probably looking for someone who can handle more carries than McFadden, unless they get Elliot with the 4th overall pick.

I don't think he leaves Seattle, but if so I'm guessing colts. Unless the browns break the bank, I think he'll want to get paid and be on a competitive team.

Hell Rawls and Micheals are "Beast Mode" in that offense. Might have more to do with the D having to plan for the QB running than anything else.

When Rawls emerged this season, that spelled the end for Lynch. Seattle has been trying to find a replacement so they could get his salary off the books.

Lynch and his salary can go anywhere else but here.

Nope. Not the kind of free agent the Bengals sign.

Agreed. I would give Hill one more year to figure it out before I even considered drafting a new RB or trying to find one as a FA.

If there's a RB at the top of the board in any particular round, by all means, take him.
Maybe Wilder, Jr. gets a closer look in TC.

too much $$ for a over 30 RB that had a injury year..
Also I do believe blown out of proportion with Hill and fumbles, Hill had three regular season fumbles and i believe none the last 10 or so games. Here are RB's that had more fumbles than Hill.. A pretty good list
Lacy, Gordon, Martin, Ivory, Gore, Starks, Williams.
As for fumbling inside 2 minutes left in the game.. the playoff fumble was his first in his two years
We have two good young RB's that we still had on a cheap salary.. keep them intact
RE: Marshawn Lynch - Shake n Blake - 01-20-2016
3.8 ypc this year which was his worst average since 2010. He's 30 in April. Put 2+2 together.
Also, if you want a guy who doesn't fumble, Lynch had 14 fumbles from '12-14.

totally agree.. good post
RE: Marshawn Lynch - J24 - 01-21-2016
Hill was tied for most rushing touchdowns in the league this past season. My god people get caught up in the silliest things we do not need a new starting RB this upcoming season we have two pretty good ones on the roster already.

I'm just not a fan of the 3.6 YPC that goes along with it. If Hill is going to be used be a guy who gets 3 yards and drive it into the end zone, great... but he needs to have better hands for that role.
Not that I think we should sign Lynch or anyone else.

Hill had the 10th most carries in the NFL this season. Of the top 10, only Devonta Freeman fumbled less. 19 RB's had at least 3 fumbles, and many of those had fewer carries than Hill.
I agree that 3.6 YPC needs to improve though. He just wasn't breaking any of those big gainers this season, and those are what drives up your YPC.

Not at his current price tag

would be nice if he was more effective outside of the redzone with all the heavys on the field.
RE: Marshawn Lynch - reuben.ahmed - 01-21-2016
Hill and Gio over their career have roughly the same YPC. He needs to improve next year, and quickly.
