archiebonker Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 So what now? Is Andre Ellington a top 10 RB now? I might have to chose between Rice and Ellington for a keeper. Hmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffraff Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 The RB roster spot will still be filled. By what level of talent is yet to be determined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Ellington is 5-9, 199 and the coaches didn't think he could be a FT back last year. He never had more than 15 runs in any game so there will be someone else involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAUgrad Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Moreno would actually be a nice fit in AZ. They will also need to draft one I think in the mid rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I agree - there are a number of free agent backs who could end up there and have at least some success. But it will remain a committee there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowboutthemCowboys Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I agree - there are a number of free agent backs who could end up there and have at least some success. But it will remain a committee there. Speaking at the Combine on Friday, coach Bruce Arians said the Cardinals "want to build our offense around" Andre Ellington. Arians also said Ellington has already added 10 pounds to his frame since the season ended. Considering Arians has always been a pass-first offensive mind, don't expect Ellington to suddenly become a 20-carry-per-game back. But with Rashard Mendenhall a free agent and not likely to be a priority for the Cardinals, Ellington is going to have an opportunity to become the feature back in Arizona. He's an asset in the passing game and could flirt with 50-plus catches and 1,500-plus total yards in 2014. Ellington has serious breakout potential as a sophomore.

archiebonker Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 I have Jennings too, and just saw that he got signed to the NYG's. Now the question. Rice/Jennings or Elligton? hmmmm....all tempting keepers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
