There are other running backs in the world besides Gray, Gaffney, and Blount. I expect that Bill Belichick will assemble some group of running backs that gives him the various skill sets he's looking for. Who knows if Ridley or Vereen or Gray or Gaffney will be part of that group? I don't have the faintest idea.
Blount and Bolden and White are under contract for 2015, so I expect them to be in the mix heading into camp. Beyond that? When backs are widely available in the draft and free agency? Where's my crystal ball. My gut says that Vereen has the best shot of being back with the Pats next year of the unsigned backs as I think the versatility of the 3rd down back is a little harder role to fill with an inexperienced player. But, I don't know his market value to the Pats or other potential teams.
