I believe if LT stays, the combination of Greene/LT/McKnight will works wonders under Sparano. If LT, leaves, do u think we need a bring a new RB to help with the run game or would Greene/McKnight/Bilal combo be more that enough?
If Reggie "softer-than-tissue" Bush can turn into 1000-yard rusher under Sparano, Greene/McKnight/Powell should be more than enough for him too.
We've invested enough in our RB stable the past few years that we roll with what we have, especially when you consider how many other, more significant holes this team has to fill. Unless you waste a 1st round pick, you're not going to do much better than Greene/McKnight/Powell
Now I hope the first thing Spags does If and when he gets here is make some serious changes to the offensive line cause this past year they SUCKED,, Have to be honest here.
Greene/mcknight/powell will be effective under Sparano. I think the only way a new RB is brought in, is if a clear upgrade..IE Trent Richardson/Lamichael James being the best option at #16. One way or another the teams needs somebody who can take on that Brad smith/Leon washington role of moving the chains and bailing us out w/ a big run after catch once per game. The team really misses that and it needs to be addressed in some capacity. Whether that comes in an RB is the question
This. Idc if we have too many RB. I would LOVE this kid. Pair him with Greene, and McKnight as a chance of pace back, we would be fantastic. Problem is getting him at 16. Would prob have to trade up, but if he's somehow there (Ingram fell too last year, and a lot of teams between 5-15 have great/elite backs) I would snag him.
I strongly disagree. Greene is doing alright, McKnight has shown explosiveness, and we're still waiting to discover what we have with Powell.
You have to assume that Sparano would want the Jets to draft him if he is there. Sparano will want Richardson. Haley will want a WR. Rex will want a safety. And Pettine will want a pass rusher. How will Tanny resolve that...by drafting a punter...
I think if we brought Braylon Back for cheaper than he would have been last season we wouldn't have to draft a WR high in the draft. If we want to be a running team we need a back like a Richardson; I like Greene but he is not an every down back.
Were fine with Greene/Mcknight on the 1-2 punch but I can say I don't like what I've seen from Bilal 'tippie toe' Powell.
