With BJGE, Woodhead, Vereen and Ridley sure-fire choices to make the roster, the question is who do they keep on as a 5th RB (assuming that they do)? I say Faulk by making the following assumptions:
-He is healthy.
-He stays for reasonable cash (vet min $850k or whatever it is.)
-He has committed to BB that he is comfortable taking on a mentoring role (some games not dressing- see Troy Brown 2007).
Personally, I would like to see this scenario play out for the following reasons:
-Can continue to help Woody develop as the CoP/3rd down back he seems to have the potential to become.
-Can help Vereen & Ridley become men in the pro game and learn the offense.
-Can provide insurance in case Woody or BJGE goes down by picking up a few carries here and there.
-Can serve in an emergency role in KR and PR
-In some offensive sets, having Faulk and Woody in the backfield would be a interesting dynamic for opposing defenses to handle.
Thoughts?
