Isn't it a bit premature to label Alridge injury prone? He was a little dinged in training camp, but I don't think that makes him injury prone necessarily. Also, he's roughly the same size as Darren Sproles. Neither guy is gonna run through too many tackles, but neither guy is going to get caught from behind very often either.
As much as I like Mason, he's a poor man's Portis/Betts. It would be fun to have a return guy/change of pace back who is a threat to take it to the house any time they touch the ball. Moss has been the only real speed threat on our team for a while.
