Tatum Bell - Heard of him

[caveatemptor]

mcgahee will supplant Henry as the starter in Buffalo by years end. Travis Henry is really overrated - if a guy fumbles seven times in one season, his yards per carry better be a bit higher than 4.1

If the broncos draft an RB in rounds 1 or 2, they may not be starting at the beginning of the season, but by campaigns end barring injury, they have to be the starter.

McGahee was recovering from an ACL AND he was playing behind Henry a guy that put up over 1400 yards in 2002, so it was a LOCK that he wasn't going to see the field . . . and LJ played behind some guy that has been all world the last two years, so that's a no brainer, so now you are going to tell me that Denver's situation would mirror those two???

LMAO

too funny . . .

Hey even the great Portis wasn't going to start here in denver being a second round pick...as I recall, he was going to back up Mike Anderson...but 24th pick isn't that special..we'll get a great player, but not someone like LaDamian Tomilisson..who came in and made an instant impact...

at least we can agree on that . . .

and by the way I'd love to have an overrated back that has run for 2800 yards in the last two years combined . . .

henry still gets his 3 td's a game though..LOL...yeah he is overrated, glad other people can see that, he gets his 3 1-yard Td and looks so great..that's why I think stats are overrated and shouldn't be paid too much attention to..

And you're right...NoOne is going to start over Q unless an injury...It's Officially Q's job to lose..ask Shanny and Kubiak, they'll tell you..they aren't impressed with this kid for no reason..

hmm...not a bad idea...they've got some good ones..Warrick, Johnson, Dugans ... I don't think they are willing to let go of Chad Johnson, but maybe a run at Peter Warrick? He's got sick maybe sicker moves than Q...

so you are ignoring 2800 yards and a 4.2 average over 2 years??? what do you (realistically) expect from Q (assuming he gets 240 carries) . . . of course this is a hypothetical because he won't . . .

broncofan......dont forget kelly washington......hes gonna be a stud.....im a little partial since i went to school with him when i lived in va ..but he really is a stud ..i think he went 1st round last year

[caveatemptor]

henry fumbles, had only one touchdowns last year over 20 yards and there are about 15 other guys in the league who's yards per carry were over 4.2 - McGahee will have that job by year's end

[Thesameold333]

wheres thurman thomas when the wing eaters need him?

I'm not sure exactly what Round it was, but I'm positive it wasn't the 1st.

like any ole Bronco running back 1400+ yards 10+ TD's...it's basically given unless of an injury..

Bengals have him too? wow they're really stacked at WR..they defintely got a future ...wasn't he a QB too? sounds familiar from the Volunteers right?

[GIVEME6]

I wouldn't count on Q getting the starting nod just yet. According to Bowlen on NFL Network, we are eyeing some RBs that he says "can help us out". Also, the staff is said to be drooling over Ahmaad Galloway who is apparently healthy and running better than he was BEFORE he tore up his knee. We'll see though.
