a lot of people in Denver were excited about Alridge before his injury and I think that this year or next he could easily be a number 3 back anywhere and a number 2 on many teams

It was also brought up that the rules have changed in regards to how KR's are blocked which will put a damper on players like Rock who rely on holes being made and hitting them fast and decleating opponants. Now it seems everyone may be looking for the speed guy who can get up field quicker and possibly make opponants miss a few tackles.

I think this yr Rock is let go for a more faster/shiftier back who can do all the jobs, KR/PR/RB/WR.

Now do I see Betts going anywhere....no. but if Zorn is looking to get younger or to have a younger guy for Portis to mold for our future then I see him as gone.

Portis
Mason (under dog man crush)
Aldridge (complete small package)
Dorsey (Practice squad)

I see the future of the RB's. Then I realized I was day dreaming;

Portis
Betts
Aldridge
Dorsey....maybe practice squad. Depends on how well he does.

I don't think Mason can go on practic squad again since he was on a roster last yr. I think he gets let go ....again.
