How long before hill is cut?

When would you expect them to cut ties? I think Bernard is going no where as he he can do it all including catch the ball out of the backfield. I really liked the Lawson's pick as he could be a stud being the number 1 guy out of highschool and stays away from pacman. Ross and Malone I think can be really good. I don't know much about ross and his hands whic worry me, but hopefully with a healthy green and eifert, ross and Malone will shine. I like getting the Memphis kicker even though we probably should of took the guy from azst. But the kid from Memphis has never missed inside 31 yards. I thought we did well in the draft good but not great but we filled some needs What are your concerns.

This is just silly.   We need both Hill and Mixon.......One RB is not enough......Burkhead gone.....Bernard was very injured and news is he is still injured. ....What are my concerns ???  My concerns are people that think this is such a great draft that we can get rid of all the veterans and just suit up and field these rookies.   Truth is these drafted and undrafted free agents could add to the veterans and hopefully get us back to the play-offs.  The key words here are " added to the veterans "....Over the last 5 years Hill is one of the top touchdown scoring backs in the NFL. He isn't going anywhere.  A RB was needed because we were down to just Hill and Peerman.  That is not enough.  Mixon happened to be the RB added, but Hill isn't going anywhere.  Hill will be a Bengal and go in as the starter in 2017.   It's up to Mixon to earn playing time.  Mixon will find the yards are harder to gain in NFL going up against Steelers and Ravens defenses than in college. 

As good as Elliott was for Dallas, the Dallas coach played other running backs beside Elliott......As good as Ickey Woods was, we also needed James Brooks. As good as they both were we also needed Stanly Wilson. as good as those 3 were we also needed Jennings. .....We had a need for Pete Johnson and Alexander and Archie Griffin ......With Burkhead gone and Bernard injured, Hill can not be a one man RB crew. So Mixon added. My hope is Bernard recovers to help Hill and Mixon. IF YOU ARE THINKING PLAY-OFF WINS and SUPER BOWL, You need a stable of running backs and you move players in and out keeping Fresh Legs on the field. You want the D to get worn out and cement legs and hit them with the fresh legs. Jim Brown said even he could not avoid fatigue and the best athlete ever suffers from fatigue. This is why we need the stable of WR's and the stable of RB's if we are to ever get that Play-Off Win and another Super Bowl Trip.
