[QUOTE=ethat001;673244]$12 million sounds like a lot for a 30 year old RB, but I understand that only a portion is usually guaranteed as stated above. Anyway, running backs retire WAY earlier than other positions since they get so banged up. 40 year old QB's are not uncommon, but 33 year old RB's are almost unheard of.

Anyway, I agree he technically has less mileage than his age suggests.[/QUOTE
how can you say that? he lead the league in carries a couple of times. and i think he might have set a record for most carries in a season. he has got a ton of mileage on him
