    Why? Stupid. Ballage stinks and we have a full RB room.

    Edit: phone autocorrected to Ken. Can someone edit?

    Ugh. I think Ken Ballage is a more talented RB than Kalen Ballage.

    Odds are we won’t even have to give up a pick if we cut him, the problem is he’s awful and Adam Gase seems to have a thing for him.

    Unless he plays receiver not worth trading anything for. In all seriousness though. Gase is familiar with him and likes him and he does return kickoffs. That was Vyncent Smith's role. If he makes the team I think it'll be for that reason. Have a feeling he plays a few weeks with us then gets cut put on practice squad and goes back and forth. Maybe we give up a 7th for him at most.

    He did average 5.3 yards per carry under Gase in 2018

    Ineffective, bad at penetration, and best used sparingly?

    (I apologize.)

    I guess it's safe to say Joe Douglas is a genius.

    But in all seriousness, mostly indifferent, if slightly confused since it seems like we didn't need any more RBs.

    I was wondering if this was worth its own thread.

    Any strong opinions on this guy?
     
  16. Not a Pass rusher or a god damn WR.But a stinking RB that was gonna be released anyway?

    i get it.Weve completely given up on ever building a legit passing offense so we’ll just hand the ball off 70 times a game.

    Absolutely disgusted w this crap
