#1 pick Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 We need one of these running backs. Turner is done. With Ovie, one of these backs can run for over 1600 to 2000 yards. Bring em home Arthur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gritz Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 You could bring in the reincarnated Walter Payton and he wouldn't get those kind of yards behind this offensive line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1 pick Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 Ovie is the best blocking FB in the league. Without him we have hardly any holes to attack for Turner. Do any of you watch the games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconinPA Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Of the 3, I would easily take Arian Foster. I also like Michael Bush as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like Michael Bush as well.Foster is probably the most versatile back in the league outside of MJD. Bush is a beast as well. He's a rich man's young Michael Turner.

Do any of you watch the games?I agree about Ovie, but the o-line is awful all around.That being said, I think Hillis will make a big comeback next year and wiould like to have him.

UK13 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I doubt any of these players leave there teams but if I had a chance at M. Bush that's who I'd go after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel City Falcon Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Foster is a RFA that would likely cost a future 1st rounder... As much as I would like him you can find another running back for much cheaper in the draft or a rookie FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Ryan=MAVERICK Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) Whatever we do..we must not make the mistake of getting a guy who is as much of a 1 trick pony as Turner. The next guy needs to be versatile. Doesn't need to be overly speedy, but it would be nice to get a powerful back w/ nice feet...enough quickness to get away from a defender when the oline misses a block. Turner was never that, and the one trick he did have (Power), he hasn't really shown over the last few yrs. Also we MUST get a guy that can catch passes. To me Arian Foster would be PERFECT for this team. But knowin this peanut gallery, Turner will be here for 5 more years before they have the ballz to get rid of him....

Matt Ryan=MAVERICK Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 No on bush in my opinion...too much like turner. Too slow, not quick enough, ok hands...very 1 dimensional.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftermath Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) RB is one of the few positions that has talent deep into the draft, we can potentially nab a RB in the 3rd-7th round IMO that will be an upgrade over Turner.

falconsd56 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I think the biggest reason for the Oline struggles has been the lack of having the same group in week in and week out.We have had an entirely too many different sets of linemen out there.

Plus he won't be on the Madden cover....lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconsManhood Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 honestly this team needs to cut both Turner and Ovie. Ovie is overpaid as a FB and if we plan on being a more diverse offense that is not so predictable you can not have 2 players in your backfield who's only talent is to run the ball right up the middle.Turner and Ovie in the backfield limits our offense so much. Let them both go, upgrade the offensive line as much as possible, this needs to be our #1 priority.Draft a RB and resign Cox on the cheap.
