He turns 26 at end of season. Low mileage back like him easily has five years at least left of top production. Third down back is pretty much set for rest of Brady's career.
Confused.....
espn.com says he was born in dec of 1983.
Profootballreference.com says he was born in Jan 1985
wikipedia says jan '85
Nfl.com also says dec 1983.
I think you are right. Hes 25.
Weird.
Yeah I used PFR. Based on looks I'd err on the side of younger.
I think we've seen the end of Faulk as a Patriot. I don't believe he'll return to the team. He has effectively been replaced on the field by Woodhead. I know Faulk is a tremendous locker room guy which would be a huge blow to the young backs, but with a group of aging players it's going to be time to cut the cord.
Um...Leigh Bodden anyone?
\Don't see BB keeping two players for essentially the same role. Especially one that is 35 yrs old.

Its called depth.
Assuming Faulk has as much in the tank as when he went out on IR, there's no reason why there's not enough room on this team for Woodhead and Faulk. There's a lot of guys that, if we were able to clone them, I'm sure BB would hapilly find a place on the roster for, assuming they make the cut.
Everyone has to make the team each year - there's no reason to assume that only one of the Faulk/Woodhead combo stands a chance of making the 53 man roster at this stage
Elderly is an interesting term to describe these guys, do not view them as that at all..
