Looks like it's gonna be the Gore and Dixon show next season (cause it's no wonder we're trying to discipline Dixon into a running style similar to Gore).
Coffee tried, but every chance he got he f**ked things up (rookie season or not). He almost managed to even f**k up a TD during that Falcons game! I still haven't forgiven Coffee for f**king up Allen Rossum's final KR with the team during that Hawks game (at the Stick) last season.
interesting time of the year for this to come out, methinks. this either paves the way for Dixon or is the proverbial fire under Coffee's ass needed to get things in gear.

Gio Carmazzi, Glen Coffee, Reggie Smith, Ray Mcdonald, Brandon Williams, Adam Snyder, Derrick Hamilton, Andrew Williams, Saleem Rasheed......
for a list of 3rd rounders that list isn't horrible. four of the team's top backup's for the upcoming season are on that list. the jury is still out to lunch on Coffee (thus this thread) but, Smith, McDonald, and yes even Snyder are all being counted on to help this team.
I dont get people who say coffee sucks, after just 1 rookie season
thye would have probably cut john taylor, jesse sapolu, merton hanks,wesly walls (just a few players who come to mind as having become very good after getting some time to develop)
and it seems to be forgotten that coffee was running behind a oline that sucked...

Yeah, he forgot to list Frank Gore (as he was a 3rd rounder in 2005).

It's because RBs are almost entirely expendable right now, and they're not developmental (positions) anymore since even the most mediocre/somewhat productive RB is a dime-a-dozen. (It's the biggest 'revolving door' position in the NFL.)
-Teams go through RBs like Patrick Willis' victims go through underpants. You don't perform, you'll be replaced instantly with either a vet/rookie who can do the job.

EDIT Plus I think Chilo will get way better having Ray Brown coach him.
As many of you are passing judgement on Glen Coffee, I'd like you all to recall a certain Running Back that spent five seasons in the NFL before he fully realized his potential.
