Mason did'nt, and there was no way he was going to beat Betts out for the second spot. With that said, I'm not a big fan of Alexander but the season's only half over.
At this rate I'll take a preseason hero that hits hole over a tip toe burgler anyday of the week. Personally I'm trying to figure out how Alexander ever got 1,800 yards and helped me in fantasy leagues for years without seeking out contact. I mean even Warrick Dunn will take you on.

Still Rock and Sellers deserve more carries if Alexander doesn't get his act together in practice this week. Maybe he needs more time to understand our running game but what I've seen so far hasn't made me comfortable.
