I'd like a RB in free agency and another in the draft.

 

Hill is very much on my radar along with a number of other backs.

 

Superman has found a guy on the NYG... a bigger back with a strange name that's also on my radar.

 

Then, I hope we use our 4th round pick on another back.   Along with Turbin and Jones and then we'd have a nice stable of backs to work with...

If he’s cheap I’d be willing to let him fight for a roster spot. He hasn’t been good since his rookie year but at least he’s young. Maybe Cinci just wasn’t a good fit for him. 

I honestly think he get too much flack and the Cincy OL doesn't get enough. They were awful this year. Look at Hills 2014-2015 season when they had a semi-decent OL (1,124 yards/9 TDs). He had a slightly worse 15-16 season but still put up 11tds and 800 yards in a crowded backfield. I believe in 16' he had some lingering injury issues but still put up 840 yards and 9 TDs. Cincy just gave up on him this year and the OL was really not a help

Plus he deals with the Andy and Marvin Lewis. If he came to the Colts it could be different.

Maybe this is semantics...    but...

 

I'm not sure about giving up on Hill..  I think Cincy feels fully invested on Joe Mixon...

 

With Bernardi as the change of pace guy...   feels like Hill is just the odd man out and needs a change of scenery..

He offers some size that we typically don't have a RB..

 

I dunno , like Martin , I'd be tempted to do a 1 year prove it deal .

 

Same here. But only if it's cheap. Not his biggest fan but we need some RBs back there. Softest big back in the league, only runs hard when he's in the red zone.

      If you click on the images in the tweet, it gives you those portions of the article.    And yeah, it's paywalled.

      Possible, yah... Still weird how every quote we get(from April) linking to this article is the diabetes part, and none of them are quoting the combine part.

      I agree with you that teams aren't basing draft decisions on what Bob McGinn is reporting. But I disagree that McGinn's reporting is okay here. In journalism, you don't get to share bad opinions of people without giving the person who is being criticized a chance to respond in the report. If a reporter wrote about a professional in the community, let's say a prominent real estate agent, and reported that other unnamed people thought the real estate agent had wild mood swings due to badly controlled diabetes and was unmanageable, would that reporting be okay? I'd suggest that if a reporter managed to get that into print without giving the real estate agent a chance to respond, you'd likely see the reporter and whoever approved the story fired.

      I don't think anything has been deleted it takes you to the article which is multi part.   It starts ranking WRs at the bottom and talking about Harrison more in depth.   Followed by a pay wall to sign up for the rest. Which more likely than not, includes those in depth reports on Mitchell.       That's what I gather by the info being there in Destin's article with link to site, which then shows pay wall for the rest.

      Again. Notice the link. The link sends us to the article about his combine performance now, not about his diabetes, despite the quotes from April being about his diabetes. No idea what happened. It looks fishy to me.    Did they move the diabetes quotes to a different article behind a paywall? Or is this not the full article and the diabetes part is part of the paywalled content? But the weirdest thing to me is that what's now there is not quoted by any of the articles I see that quoted the diabetes part.   Just strange.
