Jones, Sanu, Smith, and Lamur might be our highest profile losses, but I think it's worth remember that we also lost James Wilder Jr. and Terrell Watson, both practice squad RBs.
We still have Gio Hill, Peerman, and Rex, but I thought both of those guys showed promise. They could have been useful in the event of injury. It's part of the price of having a deep roster, but I think it's safe to say that we'll be looking for replacements for them late in the draft and among the college free agents.
Tyler Ervin has been mentioned as someone who could possible compete for a job on the 53. Anyone else worth considering? Devon Johnson (Marshall U.)?
I heard we lost Wilder which sucked cause i always liked that guy but i didn't hear we also lost Watson.
Good thought Shady, i have ignored the RB position this Draft cause i thought we were stacked but with the
loss of Watson we actually might draft a back late. Ervin sounds like a good one cause he can also return
kicks and play ST's which we value.
I will have to look up more late round RB's now.
Fun, RB is always my favorite position to look into leading up to the Draft.
