Even if Brooks makes the final roster instead of going to the PS, unless you predict he beats out Moss who they gave a $375k signing bonus to this year as part of his paycut, or Perine, he's going to be inactive most of the year.

Chase Brown was in his age 23 season as a rookie, which is a bit older than normal. He's in his age 25 season now.

That is how high I am on Tahj Brooks. Tahj is the perfect RB for running in the inside zone that we are implementing. I think Chase Brown will 
struggle in this scheme and be the pass catching blitz pickup back for us by mid season. Tahj was a special talent to get in the 6th round IMO.

Samaje is a good vet, but time catches up with RB's as you note. I think Moss gets cut.

He's the fourth RB we've drafted in the 6th round in the Taylor era....
Chris Evans
Trayveon Williams
Rodney Anderson

Even earlier than that in the Lewis era we had a decent little history of taking 6th round RBs that folks get real excited for, too...
Rex Burkhead
Dan Herron
Bernard Scott

I mean, I hope you're right because that means he'll be even better for us than Brown was last year which would mean good things for our run game. I just don't think I will be putting any of my money on that bet, is all.

That note out of the way, it sure would be a hell of a lot more fun to be a fan of this team if the focus was on positive info rather than Trey & Shemar. The Brown family just makes it so freaking difficult time and time again.

Oh well.

already been impressing and he can do it all and is a better runner than Chase Brown in short yardage and in the inside zone which we are most
likely going to be running a lot of.

Chase Brown will be making a tons of big plays this year though, whether in the passing game or on screens where he is deadly.

I just think the best runner on our team right now is Tahj Brooks and I loved Samaje in his prime.


Ha ha,  I getcha Wedge and I also think Chase Brown could have a big year, I just really like Tahj Brooks as you can tell.
