Do you believe Carlos Hyde is our long term solution at running back?

Personally I am not a huge fan of his.He dances around too much for my taste and really is starting to remind me of Kevan Barlow(fakes inside,dances around and tries to run outside losing yards)His injury history really concerns me as well.Thoughts?

He doesn't dance around at all he's a north and south runner. He runs outside because that's the play call or there are zero lanes.

Hell no to drafting a RB in top 5 wayyyyy tooo many other issues to take care of.
And this draft is probably one of the deepest I've ever seen at RB

Zero lanes maybe on some runs but I have seen him run inside and then cut back to the outside multiple times a game all season.He is basically trying to do what Leveon Bell does except Bell actually excels at reading lanes and has the best feet and jump cut of any back in the game.Hyde is a north south runner and I wish he would remember that on gamedays

ya, he's no where as bad as Barlow was. they ask him to cut on some of the running plays, and i dont think thats his game.

If that's the case he has horrible instincts lol I have seen multiple plays where if he would have stuck to the lane he would have had a big gain

Bell is patient has a good run blocking OL and a actual offense behind him. He's also the best RB in he league (very versatile) I don't think anyone is thinking Hyde is the best back in the league but he doesn't dance around like you saying at all. He's always get extra yards when there are none to be had...that's part of the reason he gets hurt.

I like him, but he won't be good or around when we are relevant again

Get a true scat back for Kelly, if Davis doesn't show next OTAs he's capable of being lightning to Carlos' thunder, get one. Not worried about the RB position, that's a position not hard to fix. Mike Davis is the key here really. We need someone to allow Hyde to play his game without saying if Carlos is out we're effed.

No. When he's on the field, he is solid. He is often hurt tho
