I agree.
We should keep Maroney. At very least, he is an inexpensive backup.
That gives us open, open, Maroney, Faulk and Green-Ellis.
My suspicion is that Taylor will stay if he is healthy. He has signed as a two-year patch, and this is year. two.

MY CONCLUSION
1) Expect Morris to be cut.
2) Draft a running back or two if they are available to compete for two roster spots with Green-Ellis.

While a 4th for Maroney might be decent value, I'm not sure trading our only starting caliber RB who's under 30 makes a whole lotta sense. Morris and Taylor WILL sustain injuries at some point this year (could be for a week, could be for the season, when a RB hits 30 all bets are off). At that point our options would be:
1) Faulk as a full time runner (no)
2) BJGE starting (no)
3) Hope a rookie is ready to be the guy (not preferred)
Maroney is not ideal, but trading him makes little sense at this point IMO.
