It seems that our clueless front office felt we'd be okay letting Lamar Miller leave via free agency and to replace his production, draft a 3rd down back and sign an oft injured former all pro. Now that Arian Foster is on the shelf, our options at running back are limited. I know nothing about trade deadlines or whatnot, but I think a trade that would make a lot of sense for both teams would be Alfred Morris to Miami. Dallas has Ezekiel Elliot and he's the future. If Morris could be had for a conditional late round pick, he'd immediately be our best running back. He'd be coming home to where he went to college so he might certainly like the move plus getting a chance to once again be a starter. Dallas gets a draft pick for someone they have no future plans for. At 27 years of age, Morris should still have some tread left on the tires.
I really don't know what our front office thinks when it comes to acquiring players after the season starts. Ronnie Hillman a player they attempted to sign in f/agency becomes available and they sit. Joe Amaro a T/E who they could use becomes available and they sit.
I like Morris but I don't see the boys giving him up especially if they go on a winning streak. Having a veteran like him is to valuable when you have a rookie like Elliott.
They can call Trent Richardson in, he's been a bust everywhere however he's free. I'd stop handing out draft picks like candy for a damn running back. They have Drake on the roster. Use him.
