Trung not looking as sharp makes for an interesting camp

a little snippet about the RB situation.

Thanks Champ. But for some reason, I'm not seeing anything. I can see the banner for yahoo but no article. Could just be my computer. What did it say?

Hmm I see the article

It was just a statement of what we all know. Trung will be given chance to start but wasn't particularly sharp in Mini-camps. It also says that The last roster sport in backfield is between Trung and Watson......b/c of the draft status of Betts and Morton's Special Teams Contributions. DUH!

This wasn't anything newsbreaking, but was pure speculation. Thanks for the link though Champ.

i like kenny for a 3rd down back out of the back field!!! not a every down player... trung is the man he going to ruch for a 1000 yards easy and. watch out when he gets a screen pass.....see ya

It turned out to be my computer. I can see it now.

Like Keino said, its everything that we already know. RB will be very fun to watch during TC this year.

I personally like Ladell more than the others

I like Trung... thinking he will bounce back this season. (Or bounce forward?)

It's way too early for speculation like this. If Trung is successful we'd be better off w/ that speed.

I've heard some scary sh*t lately about Trung. How he might be the odd man out or trade bait during camp. Apparently, they are enamored w/ Morton and Betts was a 2nd rounder. Also, the coaches liked the fact that Watson came into the offseason workouts in shape ... sounds like Trung just walked through the workouts vs. three other guys giving it their all.

I was pretty shocked to hear this yesterday (radio - Sports Talk 980 here in DC). However, they had Vinne on show later and he said don't believe it.

My pick as starter would be Watson, for now. He was the one I was more impressed with last year, and I haven't heard anything thus far that would make me change my mind. It sounds like Watson realized he could be the odd man and has been busting his butt to hold a spot while Trung is taking easier because he feels secure as a starter. He hasn't proven anything to me and I am not going raise my opinion based on the potential he brings. Westbrook had a lot of potential. We'll see when camp rolls around.

I dont beleive they will let him go..they gave up a 4th for him. He probably does not look as sharp as the rest because he is in a new system while the others have a year under there belt. Except Morton of course.

I bet Trung doesn't get 150 carries this year.
