PS Davis did have some heart-breaking fumbles!

The starting RB's in the NFC East last year were:
Tiki Barber
Troy Hambrick
Dung Candidate
Duce Staley
Besides Staley, none of these backs is really a hard-nosed, dependable, grind it out back...
Clinton Portis is ridiculously better than all the other backs in the NFC East, maybe even the whole NFC (exceptions are maybe Green and Alexander).
