RB Options

[Ballboy]

Are Arliss Beach and PJ Pope just considered camp bodies? I remember a pre-season game where Beach looked pretty good, and I thought he had an upside. And, I remember when Green was hurt last season, and PJ Pope seemed like a steal from the Bears practice squad.

I agree....I was looking forward to seeing Beach play last year, and living in Rockford, IL; I got to see alot of PJ Pope and he tore it up in preseason for the Bears.

Look, I'm pissed that we lost Green and the fact that we are NOT doing anything in FA....but last year we waited, got some solid FA's that with the exception of Manuel contributed well. I say stick with what we got, Brown sucks, J. Lewis might be over the hill, Dillion is(Bell might peek my interest)and wait till the draft, if Lynch falls to us in the first, grab him. If not then look to Bush in second to third round.

Brown is injury prone, but I'd be cool with having him as part of a rotation with Morency, and then drafting an RB later in the draft.

Something crappy about going from Green to Brown.

I mean - when you take a dump it's usually Brown - but then again it's sometimes Green too, or a mix of the two.

Either way Green to Brown - makes me think of crap. And so with that sort of divine logic I think we go with Morency, Beach, and whomever else wherever they may come from and hope that it all doesn't turn out to be a big 'ol heaping steamy pile of colonic defecation.

Crapfully yours,

The Captain.

And PS. - just because of all the references to crap....I thought I should put in the obligatory reference to "The Dump Truck" the former Packer who was known over here as Najeh Davenport or as some liked to call him Davenpoop.

Cap'n...your post was crap! A lot of good sh-t there.

Everybody here seems to think Lynch is now a "have to" pick, but remember that TT does seem to evaluate talent fairly well. How do we know he doesn't see the Packers' running back of the future sitting out there at Eastern Kentucky or Northern Illinois, ready to be plucked in the fourth round?

It doesn't have to be Lynch. Hopefully TT will target a player but not lock into one player. That's Mike Sherman thinking, and while it netted him Javon Walker, it also netted him BJ Sander and Donnell Washington.

Remember too that it was Wolfie's MO when he drafted 37 DB's to counter a certain WR in purple(and soon green I hope!).
