I understand about folks talking about others trash...but c'mon....RB, WR, Oline, LB depth is a serious issue....I'd be willing to give a pass if we grabbed a guy like this for a 3rd string role
NEVERMIND...all we need is another sub 3 yard RB:
James failed to provide the punch Seattle hoped for when it cut T.J. Duckett (FSY) to make room for James. He gained just 125 yards on 46 carries with no scores. He averaged just 2.7 yards per carry.
James had a season-high 16 carries for 46 yards in Seattle's 41-0 win over Jacksonville, but James got double-digit carries in only one other game. Three times he was held to less than 10 yards rushing.

James is better than Betts IMO

Until we can take a young stud to phase in as Portis phases out, and seeing as most teams hav atleast two viable runningbacks, why not give Edge a chance it can't hurt. It's better than Betts coming in the game and that is for sure. We gave Mr. Softee a chance.

Besides with the way things are going making a move here makes since. Betts is not doing anything. Rock needs more carries and that new dude (runningback acquisition) needs to touch the field. Zorn can never get people on the field. We don't really know what we have roster-wise (offense). Mitchell could be a star for one. How do I know Hakeem Nicks is one fo the best WRs in the league? Seeing him make them catches on Sunday.

Those who salivate at the name of every well-known veteran that is released can be compared to Snyder and all the high-price free agents that have been signed during the Snyder era.
The difference is Snyder is in a position do to it.
If a new GM and/or new coach are indeed in the future for this team, then if they are doing things right, they will let the new regime evaluate the talent.

Unfortunately the whole point of this thread was to mention what I thought was a newsworthy item, and not at all suggest that we should pick up this guy.
That being said, I would hardly call Edge a "high-price free agent".

Julius Jones is a good play this week in fantasy.

Anyone that wants to blow up the roster everytime a draft pick or two don't turn out to be good can be compared to Snyder as well.
