    The key word is logic. I think the NFL keeps their formula a secret so they can screw whoever they want and usually it's us.

    Didn't see this earlier. You bring up an interesting debate on what type of RB we want.
    For me, Bell isn't coming off the field on 3rd downs most of the time. So what I'm looking for is a RB that can spell Bell on a couple of series a game. I think Neal can fill this role as well as improve his technique protecting the QB. If you want a classic scat-back and many do, Dexter McCluster is a FA I believe and he has ties to Haley.

    what do you think about a guy like d'anthony Thomas from Oregon? I agree that bell is to good at catching the ball on third down to come out. I think if we had a faster back to spell him it would make a huge difference. kinda like when parker spelled Jerome. neal is a decent running back but will never bust a 20 yrd run. how much you think dexter will cost?

    I like the Thomas kid but his durability concerns me a bit. He's been banged up in college and I'm not sure that will translate well in the NFL. As for McCluster, I think the market may be reasonable for him. He hasn't been the player that the Chiefs envisioned IMO. He could serve a nice role here however, very similar to the one Haley had in place for Rainey. McCluster could upgrade the return game too.
