Villain The Foe Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I'd pass. Murray is a beast but Ivory is good right now. Besides, we'll need a cowboys line to get the production out of Murray that he had this year. He had an emmitt smith year. The line was so good that by the time the first person touched him he was already 2 yards past the line of scrimmage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanTX Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Murray had the most fumbles of any RB in the NFL this year. Why would you want another turnover machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrissey Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 No thanks. He's good, but his production last season was a product of the best offensive lines in football. Plus he fumbles. I would never commit the kind of money Murray will get to a RB. We've done well signing or trading for another teams RB; Curtis Martin, Thomas Jones, Chris Ivory, but maybe a good rule of thumb would be not to bring on a RB already with milage on them from another team. You can get a good RB in the middle of a draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CobraVerde Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 I'll give you all the fumbles but as far as mileage i beg to differ. Murray had an insane stat all year that his + yard average was before contact. So the dude was getting hit in the secondary most of the time. The Oline i dont see why we couldnt bring in the right players to sure up the line. Brick and Mangold are old but still produce. I'd def draft a center though, mangold seems to have a hold your breath moment every year now. the real issue would be the contract. he wants to be the highest paid rb and that position is too iffy to give a big contract to...but then again would you take Adrian Peterson if you could?

No one is arguing he isn't a great player. Just not worth the coin he will command. And, speaking of Adrian Peterson, there is a good chance he will be available, and YES, I would go there.

stoicsentry Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 We've actually been spoiled as of late that our RBs don't commit that many turnovers. I think that one year Thomas Jones led the league in rushing TDs, he had maybe 1 fumble all year which was phenomenal. The thought of whatever QB we put back there next year plus Murray teaming up to turn the ball over is just terrifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget the fumbles for a second . a ball carrier who has carried as much as Demarco Murray has this year,( over used) his numbers the following season usually going to way down.

Jetsfan80 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 For a guy who fumbles and just played his first full season in 4 years. Good use of cap space right there! And still managed to injure his hand, limiting his effectiveness as a pass-catcher and increasing his likelihood of turning it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradis Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 You want to sign the running back who's coming off a season where he saw a Zillion carries? ahhhhhh no. Jacksonville is calling you Murray. I'll take Gurley in the draft, pair him up with Ivory and enjoy smashing NFL rushing records for the next half a decade.
