Second Tier RBs

[PantherPaul]

Which do you like better as third RBs on a team, and where would you expect them to be in a 12 team draft

• Kevin Smith, currently listed behind Tatum Bell
• Matt Forte, currently the starter in Chicago

I guess Forte, since he is "the man" on his team, and Tatum is splitting. rounds three thru six maybe?

 

[PantherPaul]

I am thinking Kevin Smith will be the back before the season starts. Tatum Bell has never been able to keep a job

Smith likely will get most of the carries in Detroit, but I give Forte a slight edge because he'll be the focal point of Chicago's offense.

Chicago's offense could be brutally ugly

That doesn't matter as much for a running back. It doesn't matter if he gets 3.2 yards per carry as long as he's getting a lot of carries. Plus Forte will probably be more involved as a receiver than Benson was.
