I agree that if he doesn't bulk up his lower body it doesn't do him any good.

Running backs have to have ultra strong legs, sure, but how many have the Earl Campbell thunder thighs?
Ok bad example :p
The body type of Emmit Smith and Curtis Martin are very similar - smallish backs who can do it as "workhorses", and have remarkable thighs. But I've noticed some massively thighed smaller backs like Amos Zereoue have't done well as feature backs.
I don't see of pic of Aveion's legs tho..where is there one?

Remember Robert Newhouse? Man if he got those pistons pumping and he was leaning forward it took 5 or more guys to bring him down.

I'm interested in this as well... Have Jones, Thornton, or Reeves or any of the other guys stood out?
Judgling from Parcells' comments at the press conference, Powell is the one pushing Hunter... He might have passed Davison at this point?

I remember a year ago I asked you who the best looking Cowboys were, and that Pete was included in your answer (Cason too) ..they're playing Hard Knocks again and it wasn't til this week I got to see what your were talking about re Huiter . Game time just doesn't do it.
Of course the interest, like the scrutiny of every bleesed detail, is football related, only.
By the way, Brown Sugar, I wasn't here on your birthday, but happy belated b'day, hon, and to today's birthday girl as well...Cowgal!
