jcam222 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Based on Fosters injury history I would not be surprised at all to see the Texans keep Tate. Having said that he didnt have a season last year that will drive his value as high as he would like on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Mike Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 I read where Pettine wants an ex HC on his staff. With Kubiak apparently out of the mix it will be interesting to watch. Other than that, I wouldn't be surprised to see mostly younger guys. We'll see. Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Couch Pulls Out Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 I totally agree. Why buy some used tread when we have plenty of draft picks to grab some fresh legs. Running backs don't need a lot of seasoning or coaching, Grab them when they are young (not 34 like Willis ... what a bad joke that was). Seems like a lot of good running backs coming out early in this draft, grab a bruiser to go with Lewis and Baker/Oby. Zombo Tate is barely even broken in. I wouldn't be upset with the move, but there are plenty of exciting mid-round backs in this draft. Hyde, Seastrunk, Storm Johnson, and Andre Williams can be had in the third or later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogicIsForSquares Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 I would not invest in a big named free agent RB. You can snatch up two guys in the middle rounds to platoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose to some degree that would depend on what type of offense we install. To me in many offenses he ends up being a 3rd down back. If on the other hand we run a lot of screens etc he might be the starter. There seem to be enough choices for RBs in this draft to get solid guys in the 3rd and even 4th rounds.

Canton Mike Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 #Bills have til Mon to decide if they’ll allow DC candidate Jim O’Neil to take CLE job. If not, Ravens LB coach Don Martindale is a target I understand they have until Monday to decide, but what would it serve the Bills to basically FORCE someone to stay? Not saying he'll "tank" his job there, but would he be totally into it & totally effective in Buffalo? I have my doubts. C'mon Bills, let him go!

Zombo Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 They've already hired Schwartz as DC, right? They're not keeping him.

If Pettine chooses to go with the all young route, that would sure say something about his confidence in not needing 'mentoring' help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Cam Cam and Loggains bandied about Browns could target LSU’s Cameron, Titans’ Loggains for OC spot per Mary Kay Cabot BY PETER SMITH - JAN 26TH, 2014 AT 3:18 PMPREVIOUS According to Mary Kay Cabot of The Plain Dealer, the Cleveland Browns could target LSU’s Cam Cameron and Dowell Loggains for their offensive coordinator spot. Cameron has been a head coach for the Miami Dolphins for just one season and was the offensive coordinator for most of the season for the Baltimore Ravens when they won the Super Bowl. He was replaced before the end of the season by Jim Caldwell; a move he praised, calling it the right decision for the situation. Cameron has since been tasked with working to add more of a dynamic passing element to the LSU Tigers offense, which specifically centered around getting improvement from Zach Mettenberger. They had success in that and the offense was much improved, showcasing a number of future NFL players including wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry, running back Jeremy Hill and guard Trai Turner. Should the Browns give Cameron the nod, the speculation would naturally jump to which players from that offense the Browns would draft. Loggains, 33, will interview for the offensive coordinator position but may also be in the mix for the quarterbacks coach. Considering that he was able to find success with both Jake Locker and Ryan Fitzpatrick this past year as the offensive coordinator, that could be an interesting choice. Locker has all the physical tools in the world while Fitzpatrick is a smaller, quarterback that has to win with accuracy and timing. Seemingly, Loggains would be able to roll with just about anyone the Browns would want to be their quarterback next May in addition to Brian Hoyer.

The rules have changed.....maybe last year was the first year....only people being asked to interview for a HC position are a automatic. Asst coaches being considered for a coordinator position can be denied the interview by the club. The Bills can say they aren't letting him out of his contract. Poor form no doubt, but they can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

next2nothing Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Cam Cam saying he'll stay at LSU btw. Z Would we really want him? I mean he got relieved of his duties and the Ravens then went on to win the Super Bowl. I don't know if that screams "OC you want to hire". But there may be more to that story than I know.
