Iosefa is the type of guy everone likes, but Steven Jackson at age 50 will still be faster than Iosefa.

He would be perfect as a cop for breaking down doors on a drug raid, but he is too slow to be anything more than a 1 yard specialist.

I would much rather bring Steven Jackson back.

I liked what Iosefa did in the one game he played. Certainly fine with carrying him on the PS next year if that's the plan.

Iosefa is a nice retention. He's great on short yardage and who knows, could develop into a nice 2nd back. They obviously see something in him.

JAX played his last game with the team.

That's another position that requires some attention in the offseason

He is nothing more than a practice squad player.

Check out that 40 speed.

Straight line speed isn't everything in a back. Especially one built for short yardage situations.

If our OL (healthy) could do things that a healthy OL should, I think his performance would be more than what we saw. If you are expecting a Barry Sanders, etc like performance from him, it ain't happening and your expectations are not realistic,

Develin's back next year, right?

I liked Iosefa's effort as a stopgap, but he's a way's away from being talked about as a realistic option in the backfield.

Develin & Iosefa.... Your making me miss Heath Evans.

Trust me nobody is going to compare Iosefa to Barry Sanders.
