  • Willis McGahee

    Don't be shy.....so you really trust Ronnie Hillman to get it done?

    Lets bring McGahee back for 820k (vets min) plus incentives for holding on to the rock.

    Some will flame but in the end when you look at the current stable of backs, do you honestly feel comfortable going into a potential 19 game season with the current group.

    At some point Moreno will run out of gas and get hurt, McGahee is proven and if he protects the ball can be a major asset in both the running attack and passing game.

    Cut Lance Ball and make this happen before another team takes advantage.

    C'mon dude, there's no way Willis would re-sign after the Broncos basically said "we don't want you anymore".

      Fans often completely over look the business side of football. The broncos made a business decision to cut McGahee. When your unemployed, your ego slowly goes away. If your McGahee and could run with a base of 820k and with incentives have the possibility to make 1.8 to 2.2 mil for the year why would you not jump at that opportunity especially with a serious contender whos system you already know?

          man why is everyone saying bring back mcgahee? hes coming off a major injury he isnt young, he has fumblitis too..

          Last year Yall wanted him benched, now u wanna bring him back? he is no better than the backs we currently have.

          Moreno should be the starter until ball gets out of his "rookieness"

            I agree. Sometimes the fans take it harder then the players.

            The issue is the brass looks at it as swapping an older RB for a younger one with a nose for the end zone. By bringing back WM that would surely stunt their growth and show lack of confidence in the young bucks, early on. Therefore, we are back in the same situation where KM and WM are our best choices but then RH and or MB rides the pine. The question then becomes, why did we draft MB to begin with.

            It's a gamble, no doubt. Only way to find out is to play the games. Personally I do not expect huge great things from RH or MB until the end of the season once a routine is established. But I do expect these guys to make some key plays in key situations.

            I do not think we will have the luxury of brining back WM in week five , as all so often injuries happen and RB don't always go according to pla. Who knows he could be a pat, giant, or CFL rushing leader by then.

              McGahee probably is not 100% recovered from that broken leg, otherwise he would be on a roster at this point. No one has signed him yet, which says a lot about his current health. Several teams could improve their depth at RB with a healthy McGahee.

                If we brought McGahee back we would have probably spent more money to cut him and bring him back than to just keep him. I wanted us to keep McGahee and cut ball but I don't think we are bringing him back

                  This. We have other options besides Hillman. I kind of don't even think we should keep Hillman at this point, unless it's for STs and change of pace.

                    Wait, you think we should cut Hillman?

                      Why should we keep any player with fumbling problems?

                      He can't break tackles, can't block, didn't break off too many big runs and I'd take Lance Ball over him.

                        Wow. Glad you have absolutely no say in this teams personel moves. You want our current #1 RB to be cut for a RB who was #6 through camp until CJ Davis and Jeremiah Johnson went down.

                          There's now way in hell Ronnie Hillman is our starting back come week 1. He's not as good as Moreno or Ball. Those two can handle the load just fine. Lance Ball's always been solid when he gets carries and he can block. He doesn't fumble. Hillman does the opposite of all 3.

                            Lance Ball has consistently been awful when he carries the ball. He's been just as bad blocking. He's at his best catching passes. Montee is not on hillmans level in pass pro yet.

                            Want to bet on Hillman starting?

                              Lol, I would take that bet. He's not going to be the starter. It will be Moreno or Montee. And yes, Montee is already on Hillman's level at pass protection. Hillman isn't that good.
