      He has been injury prone. I think I would pass on him. Granted, everybody in the second wave usually have something

        I guess the first step to getting more comp picks is to not sign overly expensive free agents. I have no expectations of a name FA coming on board, especially since they haven't figured out who will be cut for the Salary Cap.

          It's just rumors, so take it for what it is worth.

            Yep - that is step 1. You cannot sign players on the first day and expect to get comp picks if your free agents are Ekeler, Davis, etc.

            I am good with it. Barkley would have been an exciting signing but probably smarter to not release players for the cap and jump right back into cap problems.

              True. If healthy, I wouldn't mind it. Supposed to be a high character player, good teammate, all positive traits to add to the roster. Between Gus Edwards, Mattison, Jones - - I mean, they all have plusses and minuses - -wouldn't be the worst signing. Health though is always the question mark

                Barkley would have been a very bad signing. He is not the Barkley of old. He's older, slower and injury prone. He was great with the Giants, but they didn't
                resign him for a reason. Ekeler was pretty good for us as well, until he wasn't.

                    Alex Insdorf On Guilty As Charged today said that while he was at the combine the worst kept secret was Hortiz and Harbaugh want Josh Jacobs and he heard it from Money Smith too.

                      I guess we shall see what he signed for but I am okay not getting him either. He is probably going to get decent money

                        Josh Jacobs signed with the Packers and then turnaround and cut Aaron Jones. He is a bruiser and has put up good numbers. He spent some time last year injured. I think Jacobs spent some time injured as well. Jones would be a nice pick and then draft a RB.

                          Of the backs out there in the Tier 2 category
                          Gus Edwards
                          Aaron Jones
                          Mattison
                          Zack Moss

                          Zack Moss would probably be 1st but I think Jones would be second
