I hope we have an unknown(let's say undrafted) RB come up big on Week 1 and we have some reckless $900 freeagent bids !!! Koren Robinson for $500 ? ...lol

I think it'll be Lamar Gordon

He'll rush for like 57 yards and 2 TD this week and people will jump him

i actually drafted koren robinson in that champions nffc magazine league just in case he signed with a good offense...

gotta love how drug suspensions and DUI's can help get you a steal in todays sports world!

What amazes me is that he appears to not have any NFL sanctions heading his way. Murder (oops alleged Ray Ray...lol), Spousal abuse (Carmichael), and DUIs apparently are far less heinous than using roids in sports these days...does anyone else see anything wrong with this?

I don't think it's crazy to believe LGordon could end up w/ 12-16 touches/g and 7/8 TDS. He is the Eagles biggest back, is versatile and Reid loves him. He will be the Birds "in between the Tackles runner", short yardage, goal line and the "run the clock out" back for a team that will win many games. That being said, he will not go for 900+ this year.

So unless he cuts Westbrooks carries, Gordan will most likley get 5-7 carries and a catch or two. He might end up with the goal line/short yardage work, but again the Eagles throw it on 3rd and short and around the goal line.

And don't forget that Moats will get a few touches also

BIGT, Part of the reason they don't run the ball that much is because their bigger back, CBuckhalter, has been hurt for years. LG should be able to fill his role.

"...the Eagles running game, which received a boost when Lamar Gordon was recently signed as the power-running complement to Brian Westbrook."

Ryan Moats will lose some (or all?) of his touches to LG. Moats' value is subbing for W'brook. He is similar to BW in style. LG offers a different look.
