Re: Mewelde Moore/Cedric Benson/Joseph Addai
This is the same mentality that I am hoping this organization gets away from. We have several young running backs that need to play for us to see if we have something. The elite teams in this league give the young guys and chance to play, and that is something that we haven't been doing for a number of years. We drafted some quality college guys and I honestly feel most of them can earn positions and play this year. Going back to the running back situation, I dont get where we need to bring in a veteran. Ryan Turain played really really well last year. Granted he has some injury concerns, but who knows he may be healty for the entire season and never have a problem again. We have to start letting these young guys go out and play instead of bringing in free agents all the time. This goes for the corner position too. We dont really need to pay Asugma(sp) when we have Carlos, who I think is a pretty good cover guy. This is what we have famously been known for for many years. Never taken care of our guys, bringing in FA that never pan out to be as good as the money we give them.
