I know a lot of people wanted Lamar Miller but from my understanding Miller is a speed back and with Helu on the roster getting him might have been a bit redundant provided the front office didn't believe that he (Miller) would be the type of guy getting 1,500+ yards a year.

I made the comparison before to the 2008 Giants:
Ward = Helu Jr
Bradshaw = Royster
Morris = Jacobs

Nice combination of speed, power, and all around ability.

Especially with RG3 on the team the Skins should be top 5 in rushing, especially now that they have depth along the offensive line.

That is a good point. One of the best things to do to the wide 9 is gash it up the middle.

The wide 9 is kind of like communism. Great in theory, terrible in real life.

Communism's theory is flawed because it does not do justice to how the species homo sapiens actually behaves in reality. Rather, it ignores human psychology completely.
