NewCliche21 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 This has BOOM or BUST written all over it!Now I say let's build this cat an offensive line and see what happens! He's the #2 back. Don't go crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKEWINK44 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think I would have rather had Willie Parker, but I will defer to Shanahan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VetMinimum+Incentives Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 What's done is done. Let us come together and accept this "occurrence" putting aside our differences for the greater good of the squad. May the gods have mercy on our wretched souls.

trimee Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I guess Shannahan liked what saw playing against him twice a year for how long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I really don't like running backs over 30 years old. That seems to be the age where almost all of them lose a step. I don't think LJ will be an exception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman#21 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Love it, gonna need two solid RB behind a rookie QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I'm down with this signing. Now I'd like to see who scat back will be for the 3 headed monster we're trying to build. Would like a low round draft pick or a UDFA. Willie Parker would be beautiful overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Not in love with this signing, but he's a pretty good player... I think after he was traded he had a resurgence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travdaskin Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I really don't like running backs over 30 years old. That seems to be the age where almost all of them lose a step. I don't think LJ will be an exception. What if he has only played a full 16 game season twice? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebowski Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Works for me. He had bad years coming off being over used. He is well rested now. Shanny will know how to use him. RBs are his specialty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shannyman1 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 He is a powerful running back. I have no idea why he is considered PAST his prime. His personal problems aside, he is healthy and perhaps can give the Skins one if not 2 solid John Riggins types of years. Plus this puts pressure on Clinton Portis now to return to his glory years or be cut or sit on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulRebel Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 He may have lost a step, but I hear he grew up a 'Skins fan. I think that intangible will put an extra boost in his step that will give a few more good years. I can't be mad at this signing. Now we just need to get a speedy young guy to round it out.

santana_4_prez Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 31 years old? Every thing I see has him one month younger than me, which makes him 30. At least I think I am still 30. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
