It is possible that we keep 4 rb's and cut Rock, but that does not seem likely.

Lotus, I defer to your level head over my hot head, but at what point do we get rid of career proven back ups that are over their prime? The young kids have fresh legs that might surprise...

Agree 100% we need backups to push the starters.

I think that keeping 3 backs, none of them named Rock, is a real possibility. Does that make you feel better?

At the point where one of them can replace his Special teams play. He may be a "career backup" on offense but on Teams he is one of our studs.
