Without knowing what the money is, if it's on par with what we did with Ware and West a few years back, I like it. Doesn't remotely preclude us from drafting a RB to come in ahead of him.

Well that was fast. He's certainly shown explosive playmaking ability. That also probably doesn't stop us for drafting or signing another RB too.

Probably less than half guaranteed. Good deal.

****ing awesome. That’s a great deal IMO.

Great insurance to lock up a potential starter right now. Greatly mitigates the need at RB. With Damien and Darrell under contract, it’s not a position that we have to invest major assets into.

Awesome deal Veach!!

This is essentially double of what Ware/West got a couple years back....

Solid player that is an excellent complementary player, but can handle a starter’s load with decent results if called upon.

I may catch some flack for this but he reminds me of dare I say it Jamaal Charles. He doesn’t have the top end speed but his elusiveness and ability to make plays when nothing is there

Was making 790k before this a year.

I was afraid that he would hit the market and command a deal similar to Dion Lewis ($20M/4 years), so I love this deal tbh. Especially the length.

I hope the other D. Williams gets a strong look too. We could use a dependable one two punch like that

Is Ware second string now?
