kubiak is still of the mindset that you don't draft RB's high. Taylor and Walker both got late season action but should have played earlier in the season, but Kubiak is slow on bringing them up. I don't think we can get any better backs in the draft that we already have on our payroll with Taylor and Walker. I think Green, if he stays, will have a repeat performance of this year.
Kubiak must've forgotten that mindset when he a) almost drafted Reggie Bush with the 1st overall pick, and b) almost traded back into the first round to draft DeAngelo Williams.
Ahman is gone
We will either draft or sign a stud running back
Dayne will be the backup
Walker and Taylor will fight for the last spot

almost. there must have been a reason he didn't pull the trigger on both of those deals. who else is coming out besides possibly McFadden and Jones. Our pick will be somewhere between the 13th and 20th. Another off season acquisition in free agency would put us back where we are.
We didn't trade up because we were outbid at the last second by Buffalo. There are plenty of good running backs this year in the draft and adding someone like Michael Turner, Julius Jones, or Justin Fargas is not the same as adding an old broken down Ahman Green.
i respectfully disagree, although i see your point. i just think those FA's don't offer anything better than what you already have on the roster. Walker or Taylor can offer the same as most of those guys.
I'm not a big Green fan, but if they spend money on FAs for the O line and DBs in the offseason, and use the number 1 and 3 picks on other needs, I can understand him coming back next year.
Not that I expect him to do much, but admitedly he is good when healthy. Which isn't often from my Texans experience. I'd just as soon dump him and go with what we got.

Jonathan Stewart?
Stewart & Jones have not yet declared.
I still don't understand what people saw in Chris Taylor. He was on the practice squad for almost all of 06, had one good game against a bad Browns team, and has been injured all of this season and hasn't played a snap. If we go into the season with Darius Walker and Chris Taylor fighting for the RB job, I'm not going to have confidence in our running game. I like what I saw out of Walker, but I would still rather draft a guy
to not even be playing versus just over $5 mil to play.

I've got to think that Stewart is going to declare. Dixon was that entire offense, and they are probably going to be one of the worst teams in the Pac 10 next year.

I think Stewart will also be going considering he is said to be a high pick next to mendenhall and of course Dmac
