I really like watching this kid play. Why did you draft RM when Sproles is a good runner? Does A.J. not think that he can run the ball for enough yardage? Sproles is one guy I like to watch (except when he plays Denver) and I feel like you guys did him a diservice by putting him on third string. He's also a great punt returner too.

Sproles has a defined roll. Kick/Punt Returner and 3rd down back. He's also the best screen man in the Biz.
He actually gets a lot of work. On games where he returns a kickoff for a TD, he threatens breaking 300 all purpose yards. He did in Denver, in the Hochuli Bowl.SHOCKED by Donktown disdain toward TEBOW. He saved your 2011.

I feel like Sproles would get injured if he was your primary back. The dude can ball but i don't think he is big enough to hold up to 20+ carries a game.
Definitely dominates as a change of pace/ screen/ receiving/ kick and punt returner though.Adopted 2010 Bronco: Chris Kuper

The historical stats on the longevity of little guys like Sproles is abyssmal. If we are to get more years out of him, we can't let him get beat up.
He takes such a beating that I fear it's already slowing him down. I noticed a tail off middle of last year and last week's performance didn't show anything different (weather conditions aside).
