Wonder if a certain bay area team picks him up on waivers.

They are scraping the bottom of the barrel for RBs, so not out of the question.

Turbin is a better blocker than Derrick Coleman. I wouldn't be surprised if the Seahawks waive Bryce Brown and pick him up.

Actually, the way Latavius Murray holds onto the ball, perhaps the Raiders grab him as a third down back.

I am surprised this didn't get more traction here.

This was our backup running back to one of the best backs in the league and he can’t even stay on a crappy Browns team with bad running backs? Is he that bad? Did we just value him not fumbling the ball so much over actually getting yardage? Was his relative performance just a result of our system and O-line for run support? If so could we be plugging in a different player than Lynch (Rawls) and get success at a much lower cost?
Separately – what does it say about our scouting for RBs? Not only are the ones we drafted the past few years (Rawls was undrafted) cut from the team but they can’t really make it elsewhere either……

I'd be careful about using whether former players attach elsewhere without knowing what the league rate is on such thinka.

Dude was an average NFL running back, nothing more, nothing less. He will have a hard time finding work next year, just watch.

Oh look, a hold by Okung. No wonder Turbin got through the line.

Not for long. You see that little piece of loose turf? One of its brothers will take him down in a few yards.
