I say wait till the camp cuts happen to add a player.

LeGarrette Blount? anyone?

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 

I like Blount
But does he add enough of a difference to Ingram?

My issue is Ingram isnt a great power back or speed guy. Bringing in a power back will p1ss him off loosing carries.

Id like Blount but you'd want a 3rd down back too and then you are paying Ingram a fortune to be what?

If you were saying Trade Ingram draft McCaffrey and pick up Blount then i like that idea. You get the power and speed backs. Just pick up a jack off all trades to cover both and your good


I still like Jamal Charles as a rotation back but can he stay healthy

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 

However, if you did that with the Blount idea, our offense would get way too predictable because Blount can't catch out of the backfield. Ingram never gets his fair dues, but he is a terrific player.

Blount averages around 6-7 catches a season. Ingram has 96 catches in the last two seasons.

True
But Ingram is neither a power back or receiver.

The issue is ive seen the offense fail a fair few times eith only a yard or two to get in the red zone.

Stock pile talent at the various positions. Let em fight it out at camp. Keep the best 53.

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 

I personally don't think it was short yardage that really hurt us last season, we battled back to 4-4 and then Brees went on a 4 game streak throwing 2-3 interceptions per game.

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?
 

Agreed. That's why I'm now a fan of taking McCaffrey in the first round...

Should our new, HEALTHY, defense struggle, McCaffrey would be our Sproles extending drives...

Excellent complement to the bowling ball Ingram...
