Is there a reason we haven’t been using Cordarelle at all? I’m not even trying to critique Smith here or anything, but is there some type of injury that is preventing us from playing CP? I seem to remember him having an injury preseason or something, but checking the depth chart he’s just listed as 3rd string RB with no injury notes.
Has he just regressed to where he’s not worth playing anymore unless Bijan or Allgeire gets injured? Or is it understood that he’s injured and will be back at some point?
I know it makes sense for him to be 3rd string because those other 2 are just better as pure RBs, but it seemed like we were scheming all kinds of plays for CP in 2021 and 2022. Is he just not viable anymore?
Imma keep it real with you CP should have been traded a long time ago. He actually should have been traded at the deadline. He’s a good player but what’s the purpose of having a good running back as your number 3. He barely plays especially now that we drafted Bijan
Because he doesn’t have much trade value and is a huge locker room presence and loves the falcons. He’s always trying to recruit guys to come here too. He just brings more value than we could get in a trade for him.
Bc the trade value of a 32 year old RB off an injury who’s never been successful in any scheme but Arthur Smith’s is probably around a 6th round pick. Also, he’s a vet presence who everyone loves, team and fans
