Keys on why to go after Lynch
1. He can catch great out of the backfield
2. He can run well in all playing conditions, especially snow
3. Power & speed runner
4. Very good instincts and intuitive runner, makes things happen when nothing is there
5. Excellent in the redzone
6. Only 27 yrs old
7. Next year Grant/Lynch/BJ backfield very formidable
Adds a new dimension to our running game we currently don't have, an agile runner that can adlib. Defensives can't gameplan for a RB that can make things up as he goes, unlike BJ & Kuhn. I like them both but they're not the caliber of an instinctual runner that Lynch is. BJ is a very solid number #2, even though, so far, I think he is running the best he has in his career.
Caveat – Buffalo price tag may be too steep. However, I would give a 2nd rounder for him. He’s a proven player, granted there’s baggage, but with new scenery I think he will flourish here.
