I'd much rather face him twice a year vs. Tiki. I'm still surprised they didn't get Rhodes, that would have been a good combo, Rhodes and Jacobs. Beemnseven 03-09-2007, 05:24 PM Something tells me that the Giants aren't done with their running back situation -- even with this signing. If they are, then I feel a lot better about facing Droughns twice a year rather than McGahee. That Guy 03-09-2007, 05:24 PM who cares, he sucks. saden1 03-09-2007, 05:36 PM Droughns is no Tiki but he is a good RB who played on an awful team. He is good for at least 800 yards and if he is the primary RB he'll hit the 1000 mark. GTripp0012 03-09-2007, 05:39 PM On the Denver RB spectrum, Droughns represents the middle ground between dominant backs like Terrell Davis, Portis, or Mike Anderson, and the crappy, replacement level backs like Quentin Griffin, Olandis Gary, and Tatum Bell. If your team is starting Droughns, you should probably try to improve your situation, but things could be much much worse. GridIron26 03-09-2007, 05:48 PM Giants send Tim Carter to Cleveland for Reuben Droughns I think it was a steal for Giants.. Droughns can be good player, and he is.. Traded for Tim Carter?? An unproven player, I wonder when was last time Romeo got his head checked out by a dr.. davy 03-09-2007, 06:39 PM On the Denver RB spectrum, Droughns represents the middle ground between dominant backs like Terrell Davis, Portis, or Mike Anderson, and the crappy, replacement level backs like Quentin Griffin, Olandis Gary, and Tatum Bell.

Never thought I would see Mike Anderson mentioned in the same breath as Davis and Portis! offiss 03-09-2007, 06:46 PM Never thought I would see Mike Anderson mentioned in the same breath as Davis and Portis! Why not? Just another Denver back who averaged 5.0 yds per carry and just under 1500 yds in a season. holmester 03-09-2007, 07:07 PM The only thing bad about this is that it means Cleveland is probaly going to take Peterson instead of him slipping to 6 and giving our pick more trade value. If Quinn doesnt slip im not sure the FO is gonna get as much as they would like for the #6 pick.
