    I have to wonder... can Garrett Wolfe be that kind of find? Or will he go way too early despite his size?

    Why are we so unwilling to give Lendale White a chance, when he has carried the ball , hes been affective, and as for Chris Brown, hes garbage, he runs upright gets popped and is soft, get a pounder like LW, who reminds me or a mix of Henry and the good ol Eddie George, I really think LW can be a top 10 rb in this leauge

    I'm no Chris Brown fan, but that's going a little far. He isn't garbage, he's got speed and talent, I just don't like his style. White hasn't really shown ANYTHING. He's had a few good runs, but he hasn't shown he's better than brown, and certainly hasn't shown anything to make us believe he's a top ten RB.

    I said he can be a top rb, youre right hes had a couple good runs, but you cant say when he has ran that he wasnt effective. i think in order to resolve this, the titans will have to sstart giving white more touches

    Lendale has as many credentials VY, look 'em up. He can be a top 10 rb.

    I don't think Chris is a homerun hitter. In baseball terms, I'd say he hits a lot of doubles and triples. He does not have elite top end speed. He's been caught from behind on many occasions. He's busted a lot of medium yardage runs, but he hasn't busted a lot of runs that went all the way. A true homerun hitter is a guy like LT, Tiki, Bush, Norwood, or Tatum Bell.

    I'm still a little uneasy about Lendale. Never carried the load in college, now getting hurt a lot. Seems like a theme with our backs. I don't think he breaks as many tackles as TH, but may have a little better burst.

    TH won't break many long runs, he'll just continue to brush people off of him. Then there are his suspension issues.

    As good as our running game has looked, the future still is a big question mark :irked:

    I agree with you completely. You mentioned Garrett Wolfe, but another guy to look at in the mid rounds is Lorenzo Booker out of FSU. He has a little better size than Wolfe, but I fully expect him to go higher in the draft.

    If we are assuming it would cost us two wins, then that's downside enough. I understand that we'd be in a better draft spot, but I wouldn't substitute any wins for draft position. We're not the Texans, we play to win. All 3 of our backs are potential starters and we got them all on the cheap this year.

    Out of curiousity...what if we attempt to resign brown? I don't really know what to think, this whole thing is pretty confusing because Lendale hasnt shown anything and we need two quality running backs and sure Brown gets hurt but hes still a quality backup for that matter...why not try to keep him?
