Im not picking on anyone, because Im a Bryce Brown fan too.......but what we have here is a mint edition shiny Rolls Royce with top performance features, but with terrible brakes.

Doesnt do any good to get yardage and cough it up.

Any suggestion to move Shady in any way was ridiculous from the jump. Yeah Brown has played well in the limited time that we've seen but he's got ball security issues. That's just a fundamental issue. You have to take care of the ball. You learn that when you first pick up a football.

Whats even more ridiculous is that there is NOTHING in this draft worth trading him for.

Exactly. Bryce Brown rushes for a lot of yards but people still trade McCoy and ignore the fact that he can't hold onto the ball. And for Greg Cosell to suggest it's better to build around Brown is ridiculous. McCoy has proven that he's a rare talent in the NFL and the way he runs the football is truly remarkable. I don't know how anybody can say they'd be better off trading him. McCoy is a young QB's best friend and people wanna get rid of him. How stupid is that?

I never wanted to trade Shady. If anything, I'd like a coach to do what Coughlin did for Tiki Barber, and pound it into his head how to secure the ball. Fix his security issues, and I think we have an excellent 1-2 combo at RB for many years.

And I was just about to mention GIants RB Coach Jerald Ingram as a possibility for offensive coordinator as he was on staff when the Giants changed Tiki Barber's rushing style in an effort to reduce his fumbles.

Did anyone actually want to trade LeSean McCoy?  If they did they were stupid.  Bryce Brown is good but damn, he has started 4 games and already fumbled 4 times?  He needs to learn how to hold onto the ball if he wants to stay in this league more than a year.

Yea, moving Shady is a dumb move. No way you do that especially with Bryce Brown coughing the rock up. You need Shady to build for the future. Now about Bryce Brown, I'd sign him to a 2 year with a 1 year option extension. Remember when Tiki had fumbling issues?? Well he was able to overcome it so there's no reason why BB couldn't either.

Straight up dumb to trade Shady.

But what I want to know is after all these weeks, why is Bryce Brown still carrying the ball like it is a frisbee.  Duce Staley, what the heck are you doing????

Bryce is already under contract until 2015.

I never did.  I want to build this team around a strong OL and potent rushing attack. Who would want to get rid of him in their right mind?

trading shady was a Fing balls to the wall bad idea to begin with... but the fact our boy brown can not stop putting the ball on the deck, justifies the need for an all pro running back


not that an all pro running back needs justification to be kept, but this is TATE

I would trade anybody on this team for a good package of picks. Question is, what could you get. RB's are not valued as they once were.
