Apparently Dalvin Cook isn't too happy with the workload he has with Jets. I'd toss a third rounder for him. He might be a Aaron Jones Jr type at this point in his career. It would allow the offense to keep a consistency between Jones and Cook. Whereas with Dillon I think the blocking scheme has to change and so does the offense.

What do you billions of fans think?

What did he expect? He knew he was going to be working with Hall. Dude is a stud in the making. That team is loaded. They are just missing a QB.

According to PFF the Vikings have the best run blocking team in the NFL. Lions are 4th and Falcons are 6th.

A bit to my surprise, Packers run defense is 19th best, I thought it would be much further down. Though there is a pretty big jump between 17th and 18th.

Why would be give up draft capital for a rental. The season is over. Let's get some meaningful reps for Love and re-tool for next year.

The big benefit though would be giving the Packers (potentially) a decent running game which will help evaluate Jordan Love. Right now it's poop on top of poop so they can't really evaluate him too well.

Cook stated his frustration is with a reduced role, not lack of winning. That's why I posed the question.

  • Yes, we do value our draft choices....I would hope so anyway
  • We have too much money tied up in running backs now
  • A decent running game is predicated on a decent line. Average backs can run well behind good lines. I don't want a great back disguising our deficiencies, I want to lay them bare.

    I think he selected teams based on pay, thought he could put up a good amount of yardage and have a chance at a championship. What the thought was the best combination of the three, probably leaning heavily on his pay.

    Ironically, he might of been much better signing with his home town team that he wanted to, in the Miami Dolphins
