2005 rb tandem and other random thoughts... - Dallas Cowboys Forum

well we know jujo is our guy. but how amazing it is that in one season we go from having no running game to a outright battle for backup rb. we have rashard lee who many thought should have been the guy all last year with jones out. keylon kincade is running all over europe and now marion barber who was a preseason heisman candidate.

our receiver corps is loaded considering we have guys who came off the bench in their first year and produced(crayton,copper). key and glenn are both healthy and witten is a stud. morgan has yet to come around but let's not forget he is our number 3 receiver.

i'm very happy with what tuna and jerry have done this offseason. the holes are getting plugged up boys and we only have a few spots left til our clip is loaded.

thoughts on fs(which i think is the biggest need left). Off. RT?

i think this year journey back up atop the nfl and given that our team stays healthy and everyone plays to their potential, next offseason we work on depth and our new GOTO WR. reggie bush anyone???

Kincade and Lee are not in Barber's league...Barber hands down will be the back up and give an awesome one two punch.

I agree 100% Fanatic. I can see JJ and Barber in the backfield on long yardage situations. JJ has shown he can stand in there and block as well as step out and catch the ball. it's said that Barber has good hands out of the backfield, too. This offense has the potential to be scary. But, Bledsoe had the top shelf reciever and a couple of good RBs in Buffalo and couldn't get it done. That is the question mark on offense.

We wen't to the offseason with several glaring needs. We now only have 2. Give bp a round of applause, I think we are serious contenders. Barber gives us grea depth.
