Would not mind him in Miami as I think he is more turnover conscious than Ahmad Bradshaw, but would he be paired with a Rookie or Ronnie Brown?
Also think we could have some interest in Cedric Benson as he would provide the Mr Inside to Williams Mr Outside.
Or maybe hiring Rb coach Nixon we could make a run at Jerome Harrison.

Good player. Brings a dimension to the offense we were lacking.
And we can then avoid the position in the early rounds -

Yes please....
Id take a risk at his injury thing....age doesnt bother me at all...given how this staff uses RB's.....the days of a RB getting 30-40 carries are over....
Williams can house it....dolfan7171 likes this. -

Omar seems to be tweeting alot of info about the Phins....
Does he know anything or just going for the throw it to the wall and see if it sticks approach.....
**** sticks is my opinion....Ricky'sBong likes this. -
Omar Kelly is a joke. Someone, anyone please tell me the last time he was right about stuff like this. He should keep his day job. Like you said, If you throw enough crap on the wall, sooner or later some of it will stick. Welcome to Omar Land folks.

Would love to have. Also, former Univ of Memphis student. Best of both worlds for me - get to root for a former Tiger on the Dolphins

Claims he is drinking with people at the senior bowl. That's where the info is coming from.
Certainly possible. -

I think it's a given. Every team that needs a RB probably has Williams at the top. What'd be freaking funny is if we somehow got Williams and Benson. I'd cream myself.
-
Jerome Harrison would be a nice pickup IMO. very under rated player and cant imagine he would be all that pricy compared to others. -
Not a big fan of taking another FA off the IR list.

Did Omar source this info at all? Are the Dolphins actually looking at Williams?

That's what worries me most about DeAngelo. He is 28, which is old for a RB and hasn't had the healthiest career. I wouldn't mind Jerome Harrison. He is 27 and has been in the league for 6 seasons already, but he only has 342 career attempts. I can't recall him having many injuries throughout his career either, except this past season.
If we lose both Ronnie and Ricky, I'd really like to pair someone like Harrison with a rookie (Mark Ingram, Ryan Williams, Kendall Hunter, DeMarco Murray all interest me). Noel Devine still interests me, even at his size. He could be used like Dexter McCluster. He gets some carries, but mainly lives in the slot and use him with some trick plays.dolfan7171, GMJohnson and Ricky'sBong like this. -

RIght now, this week, at the Sr. Bowl in Mobil, more BS, letting info " leak " , job seeking, employee seeking, is going on in each hotel lobby and meeting room. This week more out of work coaches get their face time. More HC and GMs get to see , first hand, and speak to, agents for prospective players they MAY be interested in. Talk to any agent you want I will am willing to bet he will say there is no less then 4 teams interested in his client. Omar buys into this crap each and every time. Just like the Detroit running back, Sure, the guy probably said what he said to Omar but never dreamed a small time rag would even print it. Each player, and agent are being shopped in Mobil right now. The Sr. Bowl is secondary to what is really going on down there each year. -
Would be a great addition to our team, ecspecially once we fix the ol.

I would love this acquisition. A younger complement to Brown, although De Williams is rather similar styles of running, he's a little quicker and faster than Brown. I doubt that Ricky will re-sign with us, so finding someone is paramount. I'd really rather see us target an interior OL in FA and then draft if we have to, assuming Brown can be re-signed as well...
Damn CBA issue...you rich kids and your parents (thanks PFT, for the analogy) need to get your act together and resolve this.... -

So you don't want Tolbert anymore? Is that what you're saying? -
I'd take DeAngelo Williams and pair him with Quizz Rodgers or Jordan Todman in the 3rd round.

Im a big Deangelo Williams fan. I think he can improve our halfback pass. He has nice touch.

Why do people here want Benson? FOrget the gaudy fantasy football stats for just a minute. This is a guy who lacks speed, has had 300 carries in each of the past 2 years (800 over the past 3), isn't a good receiver, has poor averages and... oh yeah... is a complete knucklehead. Have we all forgotten how many times our favorite workhorse has been arrested?
3.5
4.2

No. Those are not Benson's blood alcohol contents. Those are his average YPC over the past three years. Is that what we all want? You know what? How about you guys pay me $100,000 per year and I'll suit up on Sundays?
Sure, Williams has some baggage with his injury concerns, but when he plays, he goes hard. In 5 years, he's missed 16 games, but he's still at a career 5.0 ypc, and as SICK mentioned, he would've missed less games had the Panthers not been trying to get Andrew Luck
With Benson, you're buying a a car with a check engine light that's been on for years.
