He's a big running back at 5'11 222. He could be an upgrade to Josh Harris. What do you guys think?
 
I say we kick the tires, would take off some pressure for the draft. He's got a nose for the endzone and can also return kicks. What's not to like?
 
I say, give him a shot. Why not?

Eagles, Kelly, are making this draft interesting....I like it
 
So do they have two running backs on the roster better than this guy Polk? Is there something wrong with him health wise? Were they afraid he was going to sign it and did not want him back? Sounds very strange to me for a restricted free agent to be essentially cut. Do they think he will let them know what ever a lower offer is so they can beat it if they want? Lots of questions with this guy. Philly rushed for the 28th spot in yards per attempt so who ever they had was not all that good

Murray Mathews, sprouls. They are loaded at back and have no room.

I also checked this guys stats over the last couple of years and he had if I remember correctly he had less than 500 yards over 2 years. I'm thinking pass and grab a free agent or a late round prospect to trot out there when Bell is not ready or on suspension.
 
What's the HARM in looking???? Some here act like we have to sign him, just to looksie. Bring him in, work him out, Do NOT use him as kick returner!!!!



Salute the nation
 
We won't grab a FA RB until after the draft, depending on how it shakes out.
 
If he signs somewhere before the draft, it won't be with us. We'll only consider it if he gets really desperate after the draft due to his phone not ringing...
