    You obviously haven't watched this then... Looks a lot like an underrated back from last year that the Cowboys lucked out on, IMO...

    Huh?!?!? You are kidding right? He could be a good back but both the guys you mentioned are altleast 2" shorter and altleast 10 lbs thicker. That comparison is just dumb

    Here's my problem with Chris Polk. We have 3 RB's that would currently start over him. He's also going to be drafted before we should even think about adding another RB. The other issue I have with him is he's too much like what we've already got. What we need is a power runner, not another Javon Ringer.

    I would be in favor of adding Casillas for cheap. I remember seeing him a bunch last year actually because of a relative being a Saints fan (on NFL ticket) and Casillas was around the ball a lot and seemed pretty fast for a LB albeit a tad bit undersized I guess you could say. So eh why not good depth with the potential to start due to an injury or for an underperforming LB during the year.

    They have very very similar play styles. Pead will be a work horse for whatever team manages to end up with him.

    Watched him versus Tennessee and never once did I mistake him for Rice or Mojo

    He could probably stand to gain a few pounds before he takes over as a full time starter. But I have a strong feeling that the guy is going to be one of the next big names at running back one day.

    I like Pead a lot actually but he is nothing like MJD or Ray Rice. Jamaal Charles maybe but he isn't the short compact inside runners those two backs are.

    The games I saw him play in, he was pretty effective not matter which way he ran.

    He is very effective just nothing like Rice or MJD like you had said, I like him a lot as well.
