Something says they still have bad feelings about allowing Malcolm Jenkins to walk many seasons ago & didn't want repeat a mistake at the safety spot.

Liked our DBs without Malcolm Jenkins - just didn't think signing Byrd to that much was the answer either...

Especially in light of his faltering production subsequently.

We are going to be gutted by the time the season starts.

As will 3/4th's of the league.

So, I like Murray a lot. He would be my first choice as a 2nd back. But if he doesn’t want to play for 1-2 million range, there are apparently backs that will be available for that. Bell, Mack, Booker were three names I read about.

I wonder if The Rock is paying attention to all of the NFL talent that is available. Revive the XFL?

I suspect that most all of that talent will find its way back onto NFL rosters, albeit at a much reduced rate, but still FAR more than any other league can pay.

Didn’t see that coming.
