This offense is built for Joe and everything will go thru him. 

Less predictable? Any team that has an elite QB is going to pass first, run second. 
Elite RB? Run first, pass second. Can't get much more predictable than that.
Hardly any team has both. 

Do me a favor, look over the stats of the top 10 rushing RB's and top 10 passing QB's and see which group had more playing in the Post Season last year.


They could sign someone else, cut him now and mark him as a post June 1 cut and save the same. 
No more point in arguing this, let's just wait and see.

Yes, no matter who we get at RB the offense will go through Joe. There's no question about that. It seems very silly to me to pass up legit one of the best players in the draft just because... we don't want to run the ball as much?? Letting Joe be able to confidently audible into a run play, or opening the offense up to more play action isn't a bad thing.

Just FYI 8 of the top 12 RBs in yards were in the playoffs last year. The ones that missed the playoffs just barely missed the playoffs. Having a good running back isn't something to be frowned upon.
