Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
 

lets see what we got for a short list

R2 Bishop Sankey - Washington
R3 Charles Sims - West Virgina
R4 JAMES WHITE - WISCONSIN
R5 Dri Archer - Kent St.
R6 Jerick McKinnon Georgia Southern's

Not bad not bad at all

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
 

Why are we replacing them again?

Even if they both go, I dont think we have to go out and find a replacement.

K. Robinson replaces P. Thomas
Cadet replaces Sproles

Seems like we are going after a whole new team in the draft... C'mon man!

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
 

There is no way I see Dri Archer being there in the 5th round but if he is then I would be all for that...A Sproles replacement for both returning and offense. And McKinnon...the same for him....he appears to have a very high ceiling with some good coaching

If we got either one I would be very happy!!

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
 

Looks like there are a ton of good scat back Sproles types in this draft.
I think we may target one late in the draft, if they're BPA when we pick.

To me, both PT and Sproles looked like they're starting to slow down a bit. Not a whole lot, but they aren't getting any younger.

Could save over $6ml in cap cutting both Sproles and Thomas.

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
 

I don't think Cadet is the answer to replace Sproles. We need someone a bit more shiftier, elusive and can scare the hell out of you on any given punt/kick off return. I don't think Cadet is that back.

I don't think we need a RB to return kicks. Most of those guys are WRs.

Maybe you didnt discuss it enough because we didnt run out of backs in that game. When your last possession is a TD with 1:34 left on the clock, you cant run the clock out, you don't have the ball.

You had 3 backs for that game anyway, how many do you need? You think using a 4th running back would have bade a difference? Jones, Bush, Evans
Only players injured in that game were Obomanu and henderson.

This season we would have Collins, K. Robinson, Ingram, and Cadet = 4


In 2010 we went through 10 RBs on the roster, 1-2 more would have not made a difference.
