PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
These guys remind me so much of a younger version of what we have now and would be an adequate replacement replacing an older player and saving cap room. Hate to see these guys go... Offense was our problem at the end of the season. Tell me what you think Sean Payton could do with these guys in our offense.
These guys could be gotten in the 4-5 rounds. Draft CB in Round 1, WR in round 2, ILB in round 3. In Free Agency fill the holes then proceed to scare the hell out of the rest of the NFL. Replacing Pierre Thomas RB JAMES WHITE - WISCONSIN This guy reminds me of a young PT. Replacing Darren Sproles RB DE’ANTHONY THOMAS - OREGON This guy reminds me of Reggie Bush and Darren Sproles |

De'Anthony Thomas may have only run a 4.5 at combine, but all I see is him outrunning everyone en route to the end zone. His change of direction and stop on a dime ability is incredible. Put him on kick return duty and call it a day.

4.5 for a RB kills. Replace Cadet with De'Anthony Thomas. Keep PT23.... run his butt off the beginning of the season then put in the younger guys. You'd have to cut Sproles.

I'd rather have Dri Archer...but that 4.26 40 probably put him in front of De'Anthony Thomas on most teams draft board. Or Georgia Southern's Jerick McKinnon.

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
Throw away that first draft pick who actually became productive last year( mark Ingram) and the running back who showed the most potential in a back for Nola in the last 5 years and lets draft 2 backs and leave all the other wholes wide open?!? Why don't we just draft a Qb first too and trade all the rest of our picks to get these guys. No thanks. We need to get what we truely need, lb cb oline wr possible safety.

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
My wife's from right outside Madison, WI so I've watched tons of Wisconsin games over the last few years... James White doesn't remind me of Pierre but he does have some similar attributes like being very capable as a receiver and in pass protection. I wouldn't mind drafting him.

RB Charles Sims RB/WR/KR West Virgina 5117 214 4.48 gets my vote
BENCH 17 VET 37 1/2 " BROAD 10'05" SHUTTLE 4.30 3 CONE 7.16 He amazes me all year he played behind one of the worse OL in college and look at the numbers he still put up (video 1). he will end up being a steal in the draft he is the complete package. he was the only reason i watched mountaineer football at this year. Big gamble trade Ingram and roll the dice on the new kid Robinson. Cut cadet a player I pulled for and draft this kid to groom as RB replacement to use in rotation with Robinson. If he works out then talk about what to do with PT and Sproils then. Sim has the ability to be an impact player in the NFL for many years to come. Do not chuckle to hard when you read the Forte comparisons. He fits our offense perfectly. |

Re: PT23 and Sprolles Replacement 2014?
next
Washington's Bishop Sankey 5091 209 4.49 BENCH 26 VET 35" 1/2 BROAD 10' 5" SHUTTLE 4.00 3 CONE 6.75 Like Simms i have like this kid all college season long. you know he is all Washington has on offense and still they could not stop him. Ok Washington OL is one of the more under rated run blocking units in college football. Pass blocking is a different thing all together. PLUS and a BIG PLUS like Sim he has good hands. Blocking needs a bit of work but he does not shy away from it |
