Gio needs touches cause he is a play maker but his 210 pound frame cant carry the bulk of the carries throughout the year. I love both backs and they need to release the guy they just signed and bring up Jarveon Williams from our practice squad.

Marshawn Lynch: 215 lbs
Ray Rice: 206 lbs
LeSean McCoy: 210 lbs
Chris Johnson: 203 lbs
Maurice Jones-Drew: 210 lbs
Thomas Jones: 212 lbs
LaDainian Tomlinson: 215 lbs


Being 210 isn't really an eliminating factor on being able to carry the bulk of the carries. It's all based on the individual player. Those are all fairly recent examples, too. If I wanted to go even a little over a decade further back I could point out that Barry Sanders was 200 lbs and had 300+ carries 5 straight years to finish his career.
