It's easy, and only takes a few moments.The Pats have to be concerned about replacing Faulk, but I don't know if it will be this year or through the draft. I think if they go RB through the draft, they will be looking for someone to compete for the starting role with Maroney and Morris.
Donald Brown from CT could be the next Kevin Faulk starting in 2009
His most productive year was 2000, the year he was supposed to be the main back. He did have two more years of good football after that, Unfortunatley, they were 2003 and 2008.Last year was perhaps the most productive year of his career thus far. I think he's got at least two more years of great football left in him.

He's a good third down back, but that is it. He cannot run except a draw when a passing play goes for 5-6 seconds and all the LBs and Ss are way out in coverage and the pass rush leaves a gaping hole so big I could run through it.
Time to take his $3 mil salary and put it to better use.
Should we be looking for a late pick to replace Faulk or do you think he plays a bit longer after this year. We have a extra pick or two that BB can take a chance on someone if he wants.
thanks
Brown is a completely different kind of player. He is more of a Sammy Morris/Jamal Lewis-type power back. I don't know of anyone in the draft who possesses the kind of elusiveness and receiving skills that Faulk's successor would need. Maybe Knowshon.Donald Brown from CT could be the next Kevin Faulk starting in 2009
