Dallas > Homer imo.Oso Dorado wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 2:56 pmI'm thinking that having Penny starting out on IR will let the Hawks keep the other four RBs on the roster, and at least see them in game action. DeeJay or Homer are both vying for one roster spot it appears to me.
Yep he should consider writing a sequel to the Iliad and the Odyssey at this point.....Donn Beach wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 3:03 pmYeah, signing Hyde would seem to indicate they don't expect Penny back anytime soon and Homer is toast.

“Carlos is a good guy, a good interview, always cooperative, worked hard, had some long runs, averaged 4.4 yards a carry – I think that’s his most since 2015 or 2016,” McClain said. “Pete Carroll’s got to be really happy with this deal and John Schneider, of course, to get a guy like him to come in in a backup role.”
After a successful season like he had in 2019, how will Hyde handle being in a backup role? McClain said that shouldn’t be a worry.
“Carlos is not going to make any waves,” he said. “He’ll do whatever role he’s brought in to play and you hope ideally Carson stays healthy and Hyde doesn’t play much. But, there’s a good chance he will because the Seahawks love to run the ball. He’ll fit right in. It’s just a terrific addition, especially this time of the offseason.”
The Seahawks love tough, powerful running backs, as evidenced with Carson and Marshawn Lynch. McClain says Hyde fits that mold.
“Carlos runs between the tackles, he can bounce outside. He had several long runs last year. He’s really tough, he breaks some tackles, he can get (yards after carry), and he’s not going to rock the boat,” McClain said. “… When it comes to running, he is a north-south runner.”
I think Freeman is a superior back to Hyde.D-train wrote: ↑Sat May 23, 2020 6:49 pmWhy was Freeman our first option. He was terrible running the football last season at only 3.6 YPC and less than 700 yards. I think we got lucky he rejected our offer. Both Hyde and Carson were at 4.4. Freeman did have a lot of catches but so did Carson. We needed an early done back in case Carson gets hurt or is reinfected with fumbleitis....
Freeman says he will sit out if he doesn't get paid. I am sure this will bring the NFL to its knees.
