Default I Thought we had a visit scheduled with Ahmad Bradshaw this week?

I thought I heard we had a visit scheduled with him after his second visit in Pittsburgh?

It was probably cancelled after we re-signed Bernard Scott. Ironically, the same thing happened with Bradshaw after we resigned Cedric Benson two years ago.

I'd love to add Bradshaw. I don't see us paying 2 backs starter money though. That money could be used on a lb.

Why? People act like he had 200 yards rushing last year. His stats were better than BJGE.

Its not about what his stats were last year, but what the market dictates. By now, teams will fill their depth charts with rookies. He may get a small bump for a team looking for a backup after the draft, but again I don't see "starter" money. If you consider something in the 4 million dollar range to be an average starter (not going to look up the stats just going of the Bush deal), he's likely to get/take a one year deal around 2 million, maybe maxing out at 3 with incentives at the most.

Funny enough, I've been an advocate for signing him to the right deal but where is the demand? He has had solid stats but teams question his durability going forward or he would have been signed by now. Its this simple, he isn't going to fetch starter money.

Here you go. Next time, instead of responding to something you think is trivial:

1. Realize that you're not going to add any value to the conversation.
2. Close the tab of the browser with the thread you don't care for.
3. Go to the kitchen, defecate on bread and consume.

Its a win - win for everyone.
couldnt agree more with this dude
