They drafted 2.

Exactly. No way do the Rams need him. I will be sincerely shocked If they make a move to sign him.

Only scenario is if the young guys are somehow sucking in current training, which by all reports does not seem to be the case.

Walter Payton comes to mind. You could count Marcus Allen as well. I think I'm out. The fact that only Hall of Famers are on this list is telling.

He's going to the patriots. Would be funny if we take a look at him. We are after all, attracted to runningbacks with a bad knee history

Feel bad for the guy...never been on a team that respected his skills.

I believe you are thinking of another former Bills RB, Travis Henry. Dude had 11 kids with 7 different women.

Yeah that was Travis Henry.

McGahee is a pretty good dude from what I've known. He's had a very good career, especially how his College career ended with that leg. Funny though that two of the things that stick out to me about him are that leg and when he got ko'd against the Steelers.

Remember the day when running backs were drafted early. The majority of RB's never make it past the rookie contract.

Somebody will sign him if he's healthy...emergence of Knowshon Moreno and decent RB depth in Denver led to his release. He's battered and bruised, but could possibly fill in for an injured starter or be some depth for a team (but not ours).
