    Grant. Until last year, he was durable. He's not that old and doesn't have a ton of mileage on his legs. I say he holds up.

      Starks. Look how far he came in a couple of months.

        Really? His injury history put him in a position to reach FA around the age of 104. He has had injury problems his entire life minus 2 seasons.

          Which player are you talking about? We're talking about starting running back Ryan Grant. One hamstring tweak as a junior at Notre Dame. One severe arm lasceration as a result of some clumsy fatass in a night club. One ankle injury that no player could have avoided, that would have cost him about 10-12 games, if not for the fact that we needed his roster spot.

            I think we may not have a feature back.

              I don't know if Grant will be durable the entire season, but I think he'll be back for the playoffs. At least the first round...
              No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

                All of the above.

                  Lets hope not. When you got 3 #1s, that means you got 3 mediocre players.

                  One of them is going to be the man before the year is out.

                    There's no mediocrity here. We already know what we have in Grant. Worst case scenario, we have a solid, productive back. Best case scenario, Alex Green becomes a golden god.

                      There will be no "featured" back. MM will go to an empty backfield, four wideouts-plus-Finley set on all but a handful of plays. Grant will average about six carries a game, Starks four, and another carry or two for Kuhn or Green.

                        But then Aikman and Buck won't be able to use their favorite word ("balance"). How will they fill up all the silence?

                          I think it was Nagler to tweeted that Starks looks to be the most explosive of the three in camp right now.

                          I think Starks will win the 3rd down back job and we will have a running back controversy until about October when Grant will separate himself. He's a second half kind of guy.

                            Grant wins it.
                            Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                              If there is a god, they will fill it with the sounds of the football game.
