Personally I thought Dre K didn't have a very good game this week either.

I know he's a STs stud and it's not too fair to grade him when he's behind 2-3rd stringers.  But I thought Burkhead and Carson looked much better running the ball.

And I think Carson looks better than any of our running backs in terms of plowing through a defense.  He not only appears to have really good vision and hits the hole like lightning, but when he makes contact he just takes 2-3 players another 3-5 yards after the contact.

If it's me I'm keeping that guy as a legitimate backup for Hill.

If he goes to the practice squad he'll be gone, and I'm not sold on Hill yet.  He looked good because he had holes the size of a freeway.  We've got enough players on STs to do well with.  But our backups are not really good runners (Peerman) or are fragile (Burkhead).
