Yeah, he's the ultra-scatback type, productive when he has played but he's had a lot of injury issues.

Chip Kelly sees Dunbar as a Darren Sproles type of player (if healthy). Mismatch for LBs.

I agree. What's the problem with Dunbar? He's a fine #3 RB.

Wasnt he injured in October with knee ligaments. Sounds perfect for Baalke.

You will have to severely overpay (like 10-15%) for any player worth a salt to even listen

Well considering it's the FO that has directly affected the "attractiveness" of this team, one would assume they would have a responsibility to overpay to get quality players.

How can you destroy the image of a great franchise then continue your cheapness and expect FAs to come here on their hands and knees.

I'm so glad Baalke didn't give Malik Jackson or Olivier Vernon those insane contracts.

Nothing wrong with Dunbar. What's wrong is he's the biggest FA we might bring in

You know brass is on full desperation mode. No big time players wanna play for Potato Chip Kelly.

Money is not the issue here for players its management N there little puppet of a coach.

If not we would of at least bagged already someone like Sean Smith since he supposedly is their #1 targeted player.

You done crying yet?

Us not signing any free agents has to do with Baalke and Marathe's budget, not the head coach. Its ALL about money. Thats how Jacksonville is able to get ANYONE.

N we have plenty of it but seems agents clients ain't having it. Unless u are someone like the fellas above that just want to get on any roster no one else is bothering with this team. F*ck being a budget worry about winning now not 5 or 8 yrs from now.

Most teams keep their good players. We're just letting them walk and hoping to replace them in the draft, which sometimes works but often does not. There's no excuse for what is currently happening this FA. Complete embarrassment.

It's 100% misleading. There's a better correlation between the quality of coaching/FO has on winning than the correlation between money spent on FAs.
