Justin Forsett

billyt81 · 03-06-2015, 02:31 PM

He sure ran all over us. I really like the guy, but what does he cost? He is little and slow. Obviously he has great vision, is totally fearless and very quick. He's gotta be stronger than he looks too, because he looks like he weighs about 160lbs. Similar to Sproles, but I think Sproles is actually bigger than Forsett.

"Pass, one good year does not a good back make…." -Yoda. He could just as easily be running for the Spokane Shock or Iowa Barnstormers in the Arena league. If we can't do better with the cats we have, then just wait. Someone will be looking for work eventually, then we'll get 'em at a decent price. or possibly towards the end of the draft….bigger needs taken care of first.

It all depends on what he wants. If he wants big money... yes we should pass.
If he wants reasonable money, I'd definitely consider it.

Alfred Morris has been a very good RB for the Skins. Head scratcher as to why they would be interested in Justin.

cap the way it is and the draft looking pretty good

draft one and save the money

There are better options than Forsett on the market...

Wait and see what Dallas does to leverage Ingram against Murray...

Jacksonville has beaucoup to spend and in need to take the load off the Bortles sophmore season...

Oakland will be looking for change after McFadden had a disappointing tour...

San Diego is in the same boat after Ryan Matthews failed to be the full-time replacement to Tomlinson...

Atlanta's Steven Jackson experiment failed...

Carolina will be moving on...

Lots of teams may pay just a bit more than we can spare, but I don't see spending money and rolling it forward on Forsett...

my two favs are in round 3

Jeremy Langford - has the speed
David Johnson - has the power

both have hands and know how to pick up the blitz.

Rotational RBs should not take up a ton of cap space. plus either of these two have a solid shot of filling the void cutting PT leaves behind and have a chance of doing Ingrams role also. well not the IR bit.

My worry is taking a RB in the third when we have so many holes to fill. Dont get me wrong if a great talent os there fair enough but with needs at ILB/OLB/DL/OL/CB i really think other needs come first. The one thing the front office has a eye for is RB talent late in UDFA over the past 10 or so years
