If there happens to be oh say 4 WRs injured then he'd see the field. |

| i for one would like to not assume hardesty won't make it thru the season due to injury before it's started. unless he does get injured, our depth at RB will be fine.

I just heard Fulmer say the other day that "all of a sudden depth at RB has become an issue" and then like a week later he moves a RB to DB by where all accounts we're pretty stacked. Just doesn't make sense IMO. |

| Poole is already hurt too. Paritial meniscous tear. I was surprised to see he is practicing with it. It must be minor. I think they said he will have surgery and heal in 3to 4 weeks. Hopefully this is not signs of things to come with him. |

| Look for Creer to step up in a big way. He seems to have that extra gear that AF lacks.

If so then the surgery will have him ready to go by fall practice

| It is the same. Ainge opted to have his removed instead of repaired, which takes less recovery time I think. I also think there is a risk of being a little slower if removing it versus repairing. I am not sure which Poole will be having done. Anyone know? |

2. you're not.
they're not moving RB's to play at safety if RB depth is a real issue. between foster, poole, creer and Hardesty, we'll be fine. the minscus tear is minor and if corrected early enough, he wont miss any sig. time.
and let's not forget...hardesty's not hurt right now....we're still going to be 3 deep at RB come fall, which is what matters.
