Trade Burkhead?

But i am against it. Keep him here as insurance and as Jonesy said our eventual Peerman replacement.

I wouldn't really say it's rare. Most teams these days have a RB or two with good hands. Guys like Theo Riddick in Detroit. Woodhead with SD. Pierre Thomas and now CJ Spiller in NO. Bell with Pitt. And while I do think there's some value in having him on the bench, it's not like he's very battle tested in games.

We honestly have no idea if Rex would be good if relied upon for 150+ touches. Just a guess, but I see him as a Brian Leonard type of player. A useful utility guy, but not someone you want to rely on for heavy touches.

Tbh, while Leonard had his moments, I think he was a little overrated as well. 
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
