Ahman Green - 3rd down back?

[ND72]

Green will be the starter. Najeh will get his chances, mostly cause he can play FB as well, and he can catch out of the backfield, and play special teams. If we sign any other RB's before came, I'm going to say it, Gado won't be on the team next fall.

Cover yourself, you just kicked about a dozen Gado fans in the nuts. I'm pullin for the guy to be a major contributer. It's just too good of a story. He has shown some signs, but your right, it's possible he was just a bright spot on a miserable year. I hope your wrong.

I keep doing this to myself...I don't mean to come off as a hater. If he comes through, thank GADO he does. I really want him to, and I will pull for him. But I just don't see it.

I didn't take it as "you are a hater". It's your opinion. I just meant that he has such a big fan following, that I thought you'd get ripped for your prediction. Perhaps nobody saw it and your in the clear.

I just can't see Gado as the starter. I feel teams last year couldn't really stop him because they had no clue who the hell he was, and no game film on him. This year will be a little different. Although that might not matter because if he doesn't fix the fumbling problem he had, he'll be gone pretty quick. I hope all of these backs work out great, but I still think Green is going to have a huge chip on his shoulder, and turn that into a great season, so he can have that final big payday in his career.

Sure would have been nice to see those Dam Lions pass on Calhoun in round 3, althought TT commented he'd have taken Spitz over Calhoun anyways.

That's a politically correct statement, B. He also said he hates the fact that we face Calhoun twice a year.

I truly believe TT takes Calhoun if the pussies had passed on him.

Green would be a tremendous 3rd down back...although I'm not sure he is ready to become that at this point in his career.

I'm still putting my money on the Pooper to lead this team in rushing in 2006...although it likely will be a very cooperative effort.
