So what do the Hawks do for center now? I know he was injured a bunch, but I think the Hawks need to find a better solution at Center. Perhaps that will be addressed through the draft?
You know he's currently 15th among active players in career rushing yards. He hasn't been a world beater, but he hasn't been terrible either. Had a rough season last year, but averaged over 1000 yds for the prior 3. If he comes at a decent price, he's not a bad option. As compared to Gore, he is only a year younger, but has had half as many carries. A lot of life left in those legs.
Kind of have to take into account catches for a passing back don't you? Well I guess you don't have to but I would Total touches between the two might be a better system? Gore had that scary injury in college but otherwise seems like an ironman compared to Bush.
Receiving touches are so much less taxing than rushing touches it's not even funny, so they're really not comparable. However, even taking that into account, Bush's 1732 combined touches are significantly less than Gore's 2784. But still, I presume that Bush will cost a lot less than Gore, and be less likely to drop off that RB-over-30 cliff that Gore is expected to hit.
Agree on the cost, not so sure on the breaking down part. Was just curious on the numbers though, thanks.
My Ravens are dumping the house again. Canty,McPhee,Ngata,Daniels,TSmith,JJones....more to come. No acquisitions. Looks like reliance on college draft on the horizon. Bet Trestman did not see this on the wall.
+> Daniels back with Kubiak. He is a winner. Red Zone dominator. PM will give him free pizza coupons. I really thought he would stay with us but prefers Kubiak.
The Hawks would have fared better with Owen Daniels. He does block and is a crazy good Red Zone clutch catch player. We are going to miss him.
dang Murray to Philly official. RB Upgrade afterall? http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/12468196/demarco-murray-sign-philadelphia-eagles all but shuts the door on Mariota to Philly though. Probably Tennessee or Washington would be my guess.
Dan Snyder be like "we drafted an injun!... Wait, what do you mean Hawaiians aren't Indians? This is bullshit!"
"Injun? Hawaiian? Same thing! How dare you make fun of me, you're racist against the Jews you bigot!"
