My top candidates: Bryan Anderson, Darnell Jenkins, Amon Gordon
If I had listened to PFW in Progress earlier and heard how badly King was looking at OTAs, I would have chosen him instead of Jenkins...

Clayton was a top recruit coming out of high school, seems to be followed by off the field issues. Has good size and looks the part, we'll see what he can do.
Was placed on injured reserve after tearing ACL in preseason last yr, placed on IR.

03/04/10 - RB Thomas Clayton will be given an opportunity to find the best place to hook on with a team after returning from ACL surgery. The 49ers did not tender him as an exclusive-rights free agent, but they are open to re-signing him later in the offseason.

Re: Pats cut Anderson, King, Teel, sign RB Thomas Clayton
I watched Clayton in the preseason a couple years ago. Hard runner, with an occasional bit of wiggle. I think he's a younger version of Sammy. We'll see if he catches on--if so, it's at the expense of an older guy, I would imagine.
Re: Pats cut Anderson, King, Teel, sign RB Thomas Clayton
I looked up Clayton's pre-season stats. In 2008 he carried 42 times for 186 yards (4.4 avg.) and 1 TD. he also had 7 catches for 52 yards (7.4 avg.) He had 81 yards in the third preseason game, which is usually the game starters play the longest. No fumbles in 4 games.
In 2007 he carried 45 times for 200 yards (4.4 avg.) and 1 TD. He also caught 2 passes for 14 yards. No fumbles.
So, he has been very productive in two pre-seasons.
