Yea, Yea, I know he has not proved it over a full season, but the guy has size and speed, a lethal combo.

and muscles out the wazoo. i got his autograph at the all-access and wished him good health but man, that is one pumped dude.
given vonta leach's health, and no reason to not count on it, keeping taylor on the roster as a FB for a short cut to have an extra RB is fine by me. as long as taylor gets some carries...
how do you guys think kubiak is going to use the RB stable? assuming ahman green, chris brown, steve slaton and chris taylor are the RBs.
it will be interesting to see if he just keeps them rotating and ends up giving all 4 of them about 7 carries each? or maybe solely using slaton on 3rd downs so everyone else would end up with a few more? or maybe he gives one guy 15 and everyone else 5? rides the hot feet? rides the uninjured feet? starts who he thinks will dominate a particular defense? i think he starts ahman early in the year, gives him about 10-15 carries and everyone else picks up the slack until ahman starts to wear down (probably 3 or 4 games at the most) then switches to chris brown and rides him in the same fashion for a few games. then taylor...then...ron dayne after we resign him midway through the year!
