Barnes is only 27 why in the hell would we draft a 23 yr old to replace an already relatively young FB, and why so far have you only posted on the moves you support?

Actually, I read the write up from Chris Browns blog and I am NOT a fan of the 2 back system.

I remember how we used to run that with Sam Gash and Antwaion Smith and how it was used for the first 2 downs, every damn time, and then we went 1 back on the 3rd down. TALK ABOUT TELEGRAPHING YOUR PLAYS!

However, I went and took a stat look. All 3 of the top rushing RB's (yards) have a FB. And all 3 teams with the top rushing yards per game have a FB.

I like the thought of having more WR's wide and a singleback set more. But maybe its just Chris assuming we will be running a 2 back set rather than us actually doing it. I like the 1 back set due to spreading the defenders out which should allow for our RB to have more space to run.

We will just have to see about this move. But, I honestly cant say that there is someone out there that is such a stud we should have signed him as our OC.

Dude, we havent had the SB yet. We still have free agency and the draft. The move just shows us that we do plan to use a true FB again.

If the guy was so good why does he get cut?

No, if were serious about the FB spot, we will sign/draft one.

Yeah baby. As long as we have addressed the glaring issues by the later third or fouth round. Assuming he is still there, because he might not be.

For those who haven't heard of the guy, he breaks facemasks quite often. And, he is a threat to catch, or pound it for short yardage. Actually he has even broke one or two long.

He is the best, most polished, blocking FB in the draft.

Hes good but no where near what we need. We just need someone that can block. It would be a waste of a pick getting him.

Good point. Why did shelton, Gash, Centers, tony richardson, and sowell get cut. I guess they suck.

Didn't you get the memo Schmidtt's a game breaking FB that can do everything in fact he's going to be so great. I mean he could be as great as Brian Leonard [/sarcasm]

Re: I think signing a fullback makes.....

Owen sure as hell aint a top 11 pick, and we have far bigger needs in round two than a fullback who will play part-time.
