"He didn't have any juice last year, no burst," described 2011 Eagles scout Daniel Jeremiah. Brown, 31, has managed 437 yards on his last 141 carries (3.099 YPC), over his last 24 games. He earned 42 touches in Philly all last season, sharing LeSean McCoy's backup duties with sixth-round rookie Dion Lewis. Brown does know Norv Turner's offense and can pick up the blitz, giving the Chargers some protection in case Ryan Mathews goes down. In terms of Brown's effect on Mathews' workload, he should have little or none. For a team that could have signed someone like Cedric Benson, it's a best-case scenario for Mathews' fantasy value. |

If he has anything left, not a bad idea _________________

Don't be mad that an old man is still quicker than you. _________________

Good signing.
Won't take off from Mathews's carries,
but it'll lessen his role in the blocking game which is likely a plus for everyone. _________________

How many players are on the roster right now? Seems like the Chargers have signed a full 53 man roster this offseason  |

Yeah, its a stipulation under the new CBA. The offseason rosters are now upped to 90 rather than 75 or 80 or something like that. So basically, the chargers have signed a whole new 53 men roster. _________________
