Mike Harmon: āThe reality is, these teams agreed to these franchise tags with the CBA... You donāt have to like it but you canāt control every bit of the narrative. You can replace the position and a guy can come out of nowhere to become a leader for a team.ā
Dan Beyer: āIf Barkley doesnāt get his deal then why show up? The biggest thing for me when looking at running backs in the NFL is how easy we think it is to replace a guy. Itās obviously an easy position to replace, there are guys who should be thankful for whatās going on to the running back positon because that was them.ā
This morning Mike Harmon & Dan Beyer talk about the running back position within the NFL & why this position is devalued in the league. With running backs becoming extremely replaceable the guys give their two cents on their beliefs revolving around compensation for this position. A lot of players are still holding out contracts with only a few more weeks until pre-season games start, they tell you why!
