Yeldon & Lacy's role

I am beginning to believe TJ's role will be pretty big this year. Just from what I am hearing EL may not be progressing in his recovery as well as hoped. I know that CNS has mentioned TJ a lot during his caravan tour. CNS doesn't mention guys often unless he expects them to produce. Not trying to be the bearer of bad news where EL is involved but he still could see his carries limited due to the nature of his injury. Anybody else hear something similar regarding EL?

I can't remember who it was, but someone posted this maybe a few weeks ago? That EL may not even be ready for the opening of the season? I hope this ends up not being so. I am very excited to see what he could do in a Lead Back type of roll - because I think the kid could be very special and secure himself a nice draft stock by performing at his best this season.
Either way, I think we are fine at RB. But with our offense - we always need quality depth at that position.

Yeah our RB recruiting seems to be headed toward adding depth. You never know when an injury that looks insignificant can turn and your down a RB that was going to have a major role. I just had heard back at the beginning to spring that if he didn't see a real improvement that another surgery might be needed before fall camp opens. Then very recently I heard something similar from someone else. A lot can happen in 100+ days I hope he can heal it up and be good to go. EL, TJ and Fowler would be a fearsome trio.

Dont forget about D. Hart, kid looked fierce against our first team D.

Lacy won't open as the starter. His surgery went well but healig has not. Our depth chart is Yeldon , Hart/Fowler in that order as of now.

Ok? I'm just giving the information available to me. I don't care who is right. We have depth for days at RB.

That's awesome. Glad to hear that. Still think Yeldon is #1 by season opener with Hart/Fowler at 2.

I will agree with this as well if EL does not start with game one.
