Maybe they were looking at signing Josh Adams off the Jets practice squad as there reports he was about to sign with somebody....He would've been the type of runner they'd need. They're hurting for sure though. It boggles my mind they'd choose to move forward with what they currently have. It sure doesn't look like it's happening for Ajayi or it would've happened already if you ask me. Good speculation. Josh Adams would have been a solid pickup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blazer 557 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Josh is gone. Well, at this point they can sign JA or that cat from MNF, the cat did score a TD. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just a blurb in a RB report filed several hours ago. https://www.rotoballer.com/jay-ajayi-rb-fa-fantasy-football-waiver-wire-pickups/687891 I must have missed the blurb. Where does this say anything like that? Maybe you can quote the blurb in question. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jags02 151 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 1 hour ago, Blazer said: I agree this whole situation is a bit strange. But, another article today suggesting Lions and JA. I don't see anything on the interwebs from the team, player, or agent with any updates. But, there seems to be some inside info going around that keeps the JA and Lions signing alive. Tonight is the WW move night and though my plan was to dump him I'm gonna hold. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/story/2019-11-05/fantasy-football-week-10-add-and-drop Again, how do you possibly figure this is saying anything of the sort? You've posted two articles claiming it means they're still working when these blurbs about Ajayi fail to do so in any way, shape or form. You're reading way to much into some nobody saying "if they sign Ajayi this week" like that somehow means they're still talking. Huh? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pastorofmuppets2 10,634 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Bo knows ... the Lions - it's over, folks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tts42572 920 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Yep....They chose Bo over Ajayi. Ajayi just must not be impressing these teams physically or there are real concerns about his knees. No way two RB needy teams pass on him if he were in top shape. Scarbrough could make his way into things though for all the same reasons we liked Ajayi. He was a pretty good player in college. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SHADY29 21 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Howard has a shoulder injury that has been limiting him all week. Wonder if he's gonna be able to go on Sunday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
papaphunk 56 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Maybe they can line him up on the outside with Jeffrey being doubtful. We don't need anymore RB's Howie, WR's Man! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if he's gonna be able to go on Sunday. Just received an alert that Pederson considers Howard "iffy" for Sunday. He suffered a stinger and hasn't been cleared for contact. Would think Ajayi steps right into Howard's role. NE run D is iffy as well. PHI offense is going to focus on pounding the middle of that D and avoiding the perimeter. I'm desperate for a flex. Considering a pre-emptive strike on an Ajayi pickup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ajayi isn't comong in off the street on Friday and taking anything more than a handful (at best) of snaps/touches. methinks Dougie knows JoHo is gonna be down for a few weeks, ergo the visit by Ajayi ... will amount to bupkis this week, though, even if he does get signed/activated. this is a long play by the Iggles. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would think if this was a short term injury for Howard they'd just bring somebody up from the practice squad. A signing of Ajayi may indicate this is a long term deal for Howard. PHI schedule looks pretty tasty for RB. If Ajayi steps right into Howard's role next week...hmmm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LongBalls 1,193 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) This guy couldn't make the Lions... a team literally starting JD McKissic as a three-down back. I assume he'll work out and the Eagles will also take a hard pass. Edited November 15, 2019 by LongBalls Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pastorofmuppets2 10,634 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 lil' different spin than the earlier tweet - no sign of him yet at 10 Friday morning ... and they anticipate contribution? gotta be a NO on that, dawg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Power-O 425 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 i picked him up....i hate the way the eagles use rbs but sanders has been very inconsistent as a runner...howard is banged up... schedule for eagles is good...why not hold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
herschel 1,995 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 think he plays this week if howard sits. probably has familiarity with the playbook.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joey0480 595 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Free grab off the wire if you have the roster room. If Howards injury is multi week he could provide some flex value Quote Link to post Share on other sites
