Well, I think if he comes here and ends up backing up Helu from day one, it's the best of all worlds. Tim Hightower is a quality no. 2 RB in the NFL. I think that's his peak value, and it also would mean Helu is doing what he is drafted to do.

Plus, Hightower stays healthy and plays special teams, the biggest difference between him and Torain.
