So how was BJGE penalized for the fact that there was a long stretch last season where both Fred Taylor and Sammy Morris were inactive and BJGE didn't get a single carry even with Maroney and Faulk as the only other healthy backs. Even when Maroney was benched for fumbling into the endzone, Faulk not BJGE took the starting RB spot. So is the lack of depth at RB different than the lack of depth at WR or QB.
Just admit your theory is wrong. Belichick doesn't penalize a player for TWO YEARS from getting playing time because he was an UDFA. Never has happened and never will. BJGE actually started THREE games his rookie year and none his second year. So he got less opportunities his second year than he got his first. Again, blowing your theory out of the water. BJGE doesn't get opportunities because of his talent, not his draft position.
We'll see when Maroney fumbles on opening day.
