1. Tony Pollard RB Dallas 4th rd DP in 2017 out of Memphis- The guy had 8 games with less than 10 carries and finished the year a 1000 yard rusher, one catch shy of 40 catches . Responsible for 12 Tuddies over 5 YPC and almost 10 RPC. All the while he is 26 years old and has fresh legs, as IMO the cowboys have wasted the talent of a #1 back for a while and over paid "Zeke". Thats just my opinion though, cowboy fans move along! I believe he would fit well in LA (Rams), Raiders (Ill get into that next), or Denver. Thoughts?
2. Josh Jacobs RB Raiders 1st rd DP in 2019 out of Bama- Jacobs breakout year consisted of 2,053 all purpose yards, 1653 rushing and another 400 in receiving. Accounting for 12 total Tuddies and averaging almost 5 YPC on the ground and 7.5 YPC through the air. This kid had a breakout year being 26 years old, yes he has been the bell cow for LV however he has a few good years left to lead/CARRY a team. If LV doesn't re-sign him they are fools. The have the best back they have had since Darren Mcfadden who himself was a 1st rd pick out of Arkansas, some considered him a bit of a bust being the 4th overall pick and only garnering two 1,000 yard seasons, however he did both of those playing less than 12 games. That was his M.O. not on the field enough to carry a team due to injury. So to say Jacobs is better now than Mcfadden was is a high compliment. If LV doesnt re-sign him again around the same landing spots but LA cant afford him, honestly with Denver they really couldn't either (Thanks Russ). My thought is Tampa Bay to take over for Fornette with his health issues and inconsistency a true steady back ( Of course a QB now) is what Tampa needs.
3. Mike White QB Jets 5th rd DP in 2018 out of Western Kentucky- He busted on the scene 2 years ago carving up the Bengals D for over 400 yards and 3 Tuddies with a QPR of 117! Then filling in for an incompetent Zach Wilson he torched Chicago in November of last year for 315 yards and 3TDs and 0 picks! His overall performance has been spotty but he has shown he can compete and lead an offense. Is he the next Aaron Rodgers....extremely doubtful but could he be a surprise for a team looking for competition at a starting job for a young Qb or a veteran looking to find a job, absolutely! He would be worth a shot on many teams, like a Seattle who has decent receivers and a good running game or a Green Bay who everyone assumes Rodgers is gone and Love is now the man. Let White chalenge him for the job, however their reciving core is young and raw but has some talent. Assuming San Fran will be counting on Trey Lance to be that guy, White could be a fantastic option at back up with that Offense or steal the starting job and those weapons if Lance is what everyone thinks he is...a dud!

You’ll find we have a great group of
members and it tends to be a bit slow during the off season. Don’t hesitate to send me a PM if you ever need anything.

Re: The top 3 FA's no one is talking about
I think Pollard and Jacobs will be resigned by their respective teams. White will be interesting because I don't see them keeping him if they bring in a new QB to start over Wilson.jwing81 wrote: ↑February 17th, 2023, 5:53 pm 1.
