Funny you should mention it. The RB position coach earlier in the offseason mentioned he would like a change of pace back. Like a Scat back. We did pick up two in the offseason already though.
I would be all for keeping one of the new RB's as a change of pace. Keep the other on practice squad. Then go after a big bruising RB to spell Portis once and a while. Then get rid of both Rock and Betts...perhaps in trades.
