2. Stacey Mack, Jacksonville

6. Dorsey Levens, Philadelphia

7. Shawn Bryson, Buffalo

8. Brian Mitchell, Philadelphia

9. Moe Williams, Minnesota

10. Leon Johnson, Chicago


Any choices? Perosnally I would LOVE Shawn Bryson. I have been pimping for him for a while here. Wonder how Gary would fit into the scheme here as well. Could Stacy Mack be a 25+ carry man?

 

Heres how I'd rank those guys in order of personal preference:

1. Stacey Mack, Jacksonville

2. Tyrone Wheatley, Oakland

3. Olandis Gary, Denver

4. Shawn Bryson, Buffalo

5. Moe Williams, Minnesota

6. Dorsey Levens, Philadelphia

7. James Jackson, Cleveland

8. Brian Mitchell, Philadelphia

9. Leon Johnson, Chicago

10.James Allen, Houston

I like Stacey Mack far above and beyond any of the other guys on this list. He's young, got low mileage, runs with good leverage and power, and while he's not explosive, he does hit the hole with authority. Tyrone Wheatley has looked pretty good running behind a good O-line, so I kinda question what he would do here. Olandis Gary hasn't looked the same since he got hurt. Shawn Bryson is very intruiging. He's another young guy with low miles, quite possibly has the most upside of any of the other guys on the list. As for the rest, I wouldn't mind them in situational type roles, but I would hate to see us bring them on in a full time type of role.

 

Mack, Gary, Bryson or Williams would be fine with me...in that order.

Mack- could handle the load, tough runner who likes to run over people, but will sidestep the occasional defender.
Gary - Probably the best all-round back on that list.
Bryson - Good inside runner, but has never been real consistent.
Williams - I like his style, excellent leg drive. Similar to Smith in that he rarely gets negative yards.

 

I sure do hope Davis is available.
