It's the NFL. You need depth, especially at the RB position. Look at Dallas last year. DeMarco Murray was third on the depth chart and finished as the lead horse. Guys get banged up, guys get hot, etc. I feel good about the fact that for the first time in a LONG time we have a semblance of quality depth at many positions, notably QB and RB. If Garrard pans out. . .Ireland is building for short term and long, as he should.
Honestly, my biggest concern is with the pass rush. When Olivier Vernon tweaked his ankle last week, I had no idea where they were going to turn. Westerman seems to be getting to the QB in camp, which is nice, but think about it. We need to put some heat on the Brady's of the world or we are just automatically putting two L's in the that column for the forseeable future. Our secondary, this moment, isn't looking like a coverage-sack machine.
