    One of the backs I would’ve targeted.

    Hes a good player. Not quite fast enough for the zone running though. Be interested to see what were offering.

    He’s a great compliment to MC. Gonna wait to see compensation to call this a great move but it was a necessary one. Well done JD!

    Surprised JD acted so quickly. I expected a move, but honestly was expecting Tevin Coleman or Jeff Wilson.

    Wait.. What?

    Do I like this? What did we give up?

    EDIT: I do In fact like this, great compensation for a proven back. I thought It would've been more If I'm honest.

    Absolute steal. He’s not Breece but he’s very very good. Love it.

    He lost his job to Etienne but OK I guess. He's not exactly a burner or 3 down back. More of a plodder right? Could be wrong...

    I'll take it. He's in the last year of his contract but he is restricted and cheap this season.

    James Robinson is a good running back. He’s not as explosive as Breece Hall but he’s the 1a to Carter’s 1b.

    Wow! Where did this come from? It's Etienne time in Jacksonville.

    I like James Robinson a lot. Great player
    Good terms too. And I like how it's a rental as he's a FA next year. Shows they want to compete this year.

    Curious what people think about his scheme fit

    He's a little slow for zone running. We'd have to modify our running scheme to correctly use him. Will MLF do that? Probably not.
