Of that thirty six percent I'd bet 75% are running backs.

Ricky Williams signed by the Baltimore Ravens.

ofcourse he did...Ozzie Newsome is the man.

Of the remaining 64% I'd like to see how many actually went on to have productive careers.

Maroney?

achilles is devastating for a RB....they never get the burst back

Lorenzo Neal ripped his apart in his 2nd year I think and went on to play like 14 years....only guy I can remember.

 

[kgdetroit]

Danny Diggler[/color]]Maroney?

He would be a decent option... same style and build as Leshoure. They gotta do something, I don't want to see Mo Morris as the 2nd back even if he did fill in nicely last year.

Looks like Choice's days are numbered in Dallas. He's got a minor injury right now, but he should be good by the start of the season and he's young, so he could be more than just a one-year plug. Mayhew should look into it.

This is the latest from KFFL, I think it's up-to-date for the most part. Formatting might suck I'll fix it if I can

 

[cheeno]

From that list, if it is up to date...I'd take Snelling.

 

[dannydiggler]

Rhodes, Fargas, Maroney, J Jones. If we were in the big ten a few years ago Mike Hart and PJ Hill

 

[beez]

What happened to Justin Fargas?

 

[lp4ever41]

Snelling signed with the Falcons

 

[cheeno]

Thought so... didn't think it was up to date. BTW Lawrence Maroney sucks.

 

[grandy]

Snelling signed with the Falcons

Odd because they have a new team attached to Ricky Williams and that happened this morning after Snelling. Guess they missed one. I think everything else is accurate

It shouldn't be a big deal. If this was a good team before the injury they should still be a good team. Rookie RBs don't typically have a significant impact. I thought they were an 8-8 team and losing a rookie RB shouldn't change that.

It's not just the rookie RB issue... Half the OL is hurt, Titus hasn't been healthy one day of practice, and Fairley is injured for his rookie camp putting his time table way back of being effective...

 

[dannydiggler]

Moroney had some pretty good years in NE.. To think he couldn't be an exceptional role player, 10 carries a game relief back is pretty ignorant.

The Oline is fine we'll fix it next year. :
