Was kinda funny in arizona. hightower only has maybe 3 yrs in the league and theyre looking at wells to replace him already.

Yeah, I knew there were more. I had Moreno on my fantasy team. Arizona is fucked up tho. They never even try to have a good running game. I think thats more their system than the backs.

Theyre similar to indy, when you have a great QB and 2 all world recievers of course youre going to be more pass oriented. I think thats what will help hightower stick around is that he can catch and is utilized in the passing game.

The bruising type backs usualy dont last long and the pounding just wears on you over the years. Guys like alexander and tomlinson werent overly punishing backs but they did carry the workload for their teams and 25 plus carries a game takes its toll.

To me it doesn't seem like LT has been around for a long time. Am I wrong?

I think LT would be a good pick up for Detroit, he could get some yards and mentor the young running backs. I really doubt he would sign there tho.

They have no OL at all. The dude would get killed in the first game. Detroit needs to beef up their OL and DL before doing anything else.

Chris Johnson wont be more than a 2 or 3 hit wonder.
