I think we might have an extremely dangerous backfield especially with the addition of Scherf to the O-line. 

I'm no doctor, I don't know much about their injuries but I am extremely hopeful that these guys can take some pressure off Trevor and make some plays. But what do you all expect out of the two?

Pushing aside the negativity, I have no idea what we can expect.

I really hope we bring in a third option that will allow us to ease these guys back into their workloads and not risk a reinjury by trying too hard too soon.

I think it will be good to have a stable of decent backs; I think last year one of the biggest drawbacks was that once we did give JRob carries, there was no second back suited to help him or to change pace on passing downs. I'll be interested to see if both can return to full or near-full capability pre-injury what fresh legs will do for each of them.

I don't know what the timetable is on JRob, but thinking that if we give him a few (5-7) weeks into the season before putting a lot of work in his hands, he'll be a lot less wore down by the end of the season. Not saying we should expect to be in the postseason hunt, but it sure would be nice to play the role of spoiler for a few teams!
