Stock up players in camp

I mean hopefully we can roll on offense and keep Martinez fresh all year. But that **** we did last year was ridiculous. I know we didn’t have a main back but the way we constantly rotated backs was absurd. Yes keep them fresh but you gotta let running backs get in rhythm
Agreed. That **** was ridiculous. I seriously doubt that Dawson/Merritt will constantly rotate like last year. Martinez will be the clear cut #1. Assuming Fletch is 100%, he will certainly get his carries as well. I'm actually excited about this RB group this year and how we are going to use them.

While last year's constant rotating was like throwing stuff at the wall to see what would stick, this seasons rotation should be much more thought out based on down, distance and situation. Again, assuming Fletcher is 100% healthy, it's going to be very fun to watch Martinez, Fletcher, Allen, Johnson and Lyle contribute. 5 backs is way too many to rotate so depending on injuries, Lyle could play a lot or he could redshirt.

I can see a concerted effort made to integrate Chris Johnson into the offense to take advantage of his otherworldly speed but where does that leave Ajay Allen once again assuming that Fletcher is healthy? All in all these are the types of 1st world program problems that you love to have.
