[Redsz]

Totally fine with this signing.

Who?

Who?

Clearly you’re not an NFL guy sheesh i mean it’s DeeJay Dallas for goodness sake

 

[juza76]

Can he scare defenses?

 

[PDXChris]

I've watched more time than I'd like to admit. Heavy runner with decent hands out of the backfield. Not a bad 3rd down backup who plays great ST, specifically as a KR.

And that right there is why I’m guessing he is signed… And that’s OK

Upgrade on DeMercado and/or Corey Clement.

Who?

Have you watched the Seahawks in any game over the past four years or so?

He's been their third down back for awhile now.

He's a decent player.

If you say so. I watch replays on condensed, so names are often not prioritized. I'm assuming it's a low cost, 3rd on the depth chart/special team guy, so no bigs. Not a needle mover but not cost prohibitive.

ST and some plays in the passing game.

Credible NFL player, but by no means a needle mover.

I'm saying he won't get 40 carries this year. This is strictly a special teams signing. He has very little value as a RB.

 

[Totally_Red]

Top 10 PR and KR according to blurb on the other thread. Looks like a significant ST upgrade.

He is a warm body.

 

[PDXChris]

This move could also single a move to get Dortch more time at WR.

 

[Shane]

At minimum we’ve got our guy to spin the turntables at team parties…. Bidwill Doesn’t have to outsource and spend more money…. Win win no?

He probably won't.

And if he does, that usually means something bad happened.

 

[ajcardfan]

He is definitely better than DeMercado. And, even though I don't really follow the Seahawks, I saw him do more on special teams last year than Pascal did on our special teams.

We would all be thrilled with a splash signing. But reality.... Bidwill laid out 40 million guaranteed yesterday. He's about done.

You keep saying not a needle mover, but the question is does the cap space used move the needle whether that be 1 player or 10 players.

Every player that gets playing time that is an improvement over last year is by definition a needle mover, and upgrading 5 spots as opposed to 1 can be especially beneficial if that one high priced guy were to get injured or not perform up to expectations.

Our kick return absolutely sucked last year IMO so it is hard for me to believe this guy won't make a difference.
