UDFA Jeffrey Wilson RB

You left out the most valuable back on the team == Mostert AND our #1 back, Coleman. Mostert fills TWO roster spots -- RB and special teams gunner. Thanks to him, we can keep 3 QBs.

He may be playing for the Texans in the next 10 days

With the Texans losing Miller for the season on the ACL, I think we should try to ship off Wilson to them. He's an every down back, and would have the chance to go back to his home state. Win-win-win for everyone.

Possibility.

Too bad their OLine is terrible cause we can use help there.

Good point! Forgot about that aspect of Mostert. In my mind, he's #2 behind Breida, and forgot about Coleman. Also I am hoping ShanaLYnch can trade BeatHard so we can free up that 3rd QB spot for a talented offensive or defensive player.

Personally, between McKinnon and Wilson, I'd pick Wilson. McKinnon's leg is unstable (as far as all the reoccurring flairups with his rehab) and I like Wilson's size. I think he's 210 lbs plus? Anyway, he's bigger than McKinnon and while he may not be as fast as McKinnon - he seems to be heathier than McKinnon, and to me being Healthy is as valuable as being talented like McKinnon. I think you can find a McKinnon in next years draft. He's not an every down back. I view McKinnon more as a luxury pick than a back that can play all 4 downs. I'm betting you can find a back like that in next years draft after the first round easy. (say 2nd through 4th rounds).

Which makes it such a head scratcher, why we are the only team in the NFL to spend more cap space l on our RBs than our WRs.

If he can make street guys look like roster guys.
Roster guys look like starters.
Starters like pro bowlers/all pro


What can he do with that level of player.

Terrel davis and clinton portis are good examples.

Dude just stop.

what do you mean stop?

are you telling me that you DO agree for a much deserving kid to get CUT because of the "numbers games" ??

Lmaooo Coleman is damn sure better than Raheem

Since he is on the PS, does that mean it hurts so good now?

Can still be grabbed anytime by another team

I would not be shocked if Houston gets a few games into the season and realizes they need another RB

I wouldn't say hurts so good,just hurts less . That and he has been known to drop the ball from time to time.

I would think that he will get picked up. Dude has played well this preseason.

I hope so. I dont know too much about him as I dont have the time to watch other teams.

But Raheem is pretty good. Speed kills in Kyle's system. The faster the arby, the more explosive this offense gets. Theres very few players faster than Raheem.

Wanna start by saying I like Wilson and he played better than many thought he would.


But being completely objective... nothing he did was really spectacular last season. Not particularly fast or strong or quick. His stats weren't great. Had some good plays but nothing really jumping off the screen. He's a good player but there's not the potential upside that you'd find with other RBs that didn't make a 53 man roster. Other RBs who got the right attributes but just need some work.

I wouldn't worry too much about another team grabbing him. And if it happens then we can rather easily find another RB to do what he can do.
