And yeah, we gave a 1st for him but that cost is sunk. And his salary is guaranteed so cutting him doesn't get you anywhere.
So you're looking at 6-10 touches in a game that Pacheco is healthy. Is that worth cutting him and taking on another player who also counts against the cap? Is it worth giving draft pick compensation to replace him? The time spent teaching him the playbook? The risk of him not knowing a blocking assignment?
Bottom line is that MEH's role just doesn't matter enough to bother with putting resources/time towards it.
I think we move on when the contract expires because at that point you're spending NEW capital rather than just absorbing sunk capital.
Now if Pacheco gets hurt and MEH ends up a primary ballcarrier - well that'll be problematic.
Pacheco is gonna get the majority of the "this down matters" snaps, but I wouldn't mind having another guy that could replace CEH just to spell him in some of these throwaway games.
Pacheco's running style isn't long for the league, like it or not, so we need to manage that as best we can. I can't imagine the playbook stuff is that tough for "run outside zone" or whatnot but hell, give Perine the snaps if that's the case.

Neither is MVS, he's played the most snaps of any WR all season by far and has done exactly jack shit. I'm sick of seeing him run around with his head up his ass out there.
This is where Andy and his weird little preferences and overly complicated system gets really frustrating. Just put the best players out there and find a way to adjust what you're doing to fit their skill sets. There's no reason at this point MVS or Moore should be playing more than Rice and Ross. Both have shown in their limited snaps they are far superior players than the two guys playing ahead of them.
I know, I know, I get it; all the wins, all the Super Bowls, we're still 4-1, Andy is a genius, I fully understand. It's still annoying as hell, especially the MVS situation. There is no other team in the entire NFL where he would be playing the most snaps of any WR on the roster. I don't know exactly what it is they think he's doing, but whatever it is, it's not helping anyone or anything. [Reply]

It's not overly complicated. It's a passing offense with option reads - most teams do that. What sets Andy apart is his playcalling that's designed to build on top of things he puts on tape. That's not actually adding layers of difficulty.
The thing MVS does is draw attention but he's gotta start producing or that won't continue. [Reply]

I just don't understand the non use. He seems to always be open when they target him deep. If that fourth down play isn't underthrown yesterday he walks in. [Reply]

He only had 9 snaps yesterday... Overreaction Planet. [Reply]

Yeah, he had a couple steps there. Really should've been a 6 but I think Mahomes was hit as he threw. [Reply]
Year 2 in the system, end of the half situation, the play is designed to get the ball in his hands quickly to get fast yards, and it looks like he has no clue what he's doing.
If you can't do the simple stuff, how are they (Pat & Andy) supposed to trust you on the other things? pic.twitter.com/CcjACYtPyL
