    Now that we have a true RB, who stays and who goes, Antonio Andrews or Bishop Sankey?
    I'd like to see them keep Andrews. I think he's showed more than Sankey has.
    I still think we need to find another in the later part of the draft just to prepare him.
    Any thoughts?

    Andrews will likely be the No.2 IMO. He's a no nonsense runner who hits back. Cobb is mostly the same but his vision isnt as good as Andrews.

    And Sankey lol, bye Sankey...

    I could live with Murray, Cobb, Andrews. Sankey is straight garbage.

    Murray is a three down back - he won't be coming off the field just because it's third and long. He'll only be out on occasion, for a series every now and then, and to get a breather.

    So who comes in to replace him when he comes out? It should be Andrews/Cobb on running downs and Sankey/McCluster on passing downs.

    But that's five RBs and we may not keep five on the 53-man roster. Even if we do, we certainly won't have five active on gamedays. McCluster should be active every week since he'll be the punt returner. That leaves three guys - Andrews, Cobb and Sankey - battling it out in preseason and training camp competing for two roster spots. That's how I see it anyway.

    Don't need a backup. 500 carries, and if he gets hurt season over. Smoke'm if you got'em.
