Alaskan Grizzly Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 I'm mostly asking as he's a former Saint and although older, Fox and crew showed some interest in the other CJ (Anderson) last year. There are a lot of questions about whether Langford can carry the load. And whether he can consistently catch out of the backfield. Spiller does that. If the Bears checked him out I wouldn't see him as the feature back, maybe a change of pace. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/...ut-c-j-spiller/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingtwig Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 I cant see us letting Howard go in order to make room for him. Howard is young and I'm sure the team would like to see what he can do. I would bring him in for a look but don't see it happening. I do question why saints would let him go though. They have enough salary cap issues and cutting him hurts even more as he continues to count for the next 2 yrs. Is he really that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connorbear Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 The backs we have on our roster are young and have potential. Pass. Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I was actually hoping to see Howard play. Read that Fox had it in the plans to let him play but they didn't get enough possessions to do it. Hopefully next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DABEARSDABOMB Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Zero interest. Want to see what the young guys can do. We were literally so devoid of talent last year (especially young emerging talent), that I essentially view this as year 1 of the rebuild.

BearFan2000 Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Pass as well. Spiller has rarely lived up to his potential, hence why he's bounced around the league a bit and why he got cut. Like others here have pointed out we have young RB's that I'd rather see get game action than bringing in a guy who's failed most everywhere he's been. I really want to see Howard, he could be the future. Langford doesn't really impress me I felt he left a lot of yardage on the field last week. A few times he had big holes and seemed to stumble or trip over his own feet or something it was weird seeing him with open space going down virtually un-hit. He goes down way to easy. Let's see what Carey and Howard can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
