Do any of you feel like we're ok with our position at RB? Is Kamara's suspension going to be 6 games or is that still up in the air?

Not sure why, but I feel ok with Ingram, Jones, Washington and the UDFA Smith.

If not, who would you look at signing?

There will be some good RB cut down the road if we feel the need to add

Ty’son Williams is an interesting name that just got released by the Ravens

The length of the suspension is still in the air. I think 8 games is the extent where you could just roll with what we have, and more you should consider a quality 4th guy.

Also, check out the schedule. They shoudl be able to beat Atl, Car & Sea with what they have. TB & Minn should still be winnable, but the concern there is if the team gets 1- dimension too fast without AK. Cincy will be a tough game even w/ AK.

Raiders & AZ will be tough, but still winnable as long as Ingram & TJJ aren't too overworked. When you get into Nov, the games get noticeable more difficult, but that's week 9+. You could always make a move to bring someone in if he's still suspended and the other RBs are banged up

Not sure. But, until Kamara comes back, this gives Carmichael and Allen a chance to get creative with the play-calling (screen, swing and flare passes, sideline screens, delays, etc.) with the backs they do have.
Plus, we have one other weapon/decoy whose mere presence is a distraction - Taysom Hill. He can be used on running or passing plays, or a combination thereof....

Smith could surprise...

We need another good back. Anyone should know Kamara has stuff going on and his focus could be slightly shifted.

I would line up Taysom at RB.
