I was just watched Patriots Today and they suggested that it's possible that BB would keep 5 running backs.
Laurence Maroney
Sammy Morris
Kevin Faulk
Health Evans
Lamont Jordan
Kyle Eckel
Ben Jarvis-Green
These are the backs on the roster right now. Ben Jarvis is a developmental back, IMO. He'll probably end up on the practice squad. IMHO, Eckel is fighting for his roster spot. They are not going to cut Maroney. By all accounts,Sammy Morris is completely healthy. If he performs like he did before his injury during the preseason. I don't see any reason to cut him.
Kevin Faulk has a special role on this team. I don't see him getting cut either.
That leaves leaves Jordan, Evans, and Eckel fighting for either one or two spots. I think that the Pats are going to keep 5 running backs. So far in camp, there has been an emphasis on the running game. I certainly hope that the running game will become a HUGE part of our offense this year. Having 5 good backs won't hurt, IMO.
