Wouldn't mind looking at a guy like Meggett or Todman. |
I wouldn't mind giving any of those guys (bolded) a shot. |
I really like Edwin Baker. He was pretty impressive at MSU when he played. I like Dan Herron too.

Ah, here is the Benson discussion.
I like Todman, Rainey and Baker as candidates to inject a little electricity to our RB stable-- but I expect a heavy dose of Green/Kuhn.

| Do we designate Benson for return? I suppose it depends on a lot of medical information we don't have access to, but it'll be interesting to see what happens if there is indeed a risk that he won't return this season. |

Depends on whether or not get gets surgery. Wouldn't be surprised to see if we just make him an inactive next week..if Green looks decent against an elite Texans run defense, we IR him.

He looked good on that one run. Otherwise I wasn't impressed. Seems like he doesn't hit the first hole very hard or with much explosiveness. He's solid if he's in open space, but I haven't been impressed between the tackles. Granted, the sample size is small. |

I'm buying the Palmy talk that it's all about attempts at this point and less about YPC. I could care less if he only gets 3 yards every time, he needs to get 20 carries if we want any chance Sunday.

I think they are eligible to come off PUP this week, and there is a 3 week window. Will be interesting to see what happens there. If Saine's injury is serious you have to assume they'll add another back from somewhere. |

Will Q be back playing at all this year? I think he could open up the offense even more and he's not afraid to block at ALL.
Hopefully Busari Raji Jr. practices this week, because I'd like to have him back. Greg can stay on the sidelines and recover if he isn't 100%.
