Darren McFadden

McFadden may have rushed for over 1,000 yards in 2015, but his days of being a workhorse back are long gone. McFadden played in only three games for the Dallas Cowboys in 2016 due to an elbow injury. His durability has always been a question mark and at 29 years old (he will be 30 in August), it seems McFadden’s best days are behind him. The Eagles need to add talent to their backfield, but McFadden would not be an inspiring addition.
