Is Ronnie Brown Really That Poorly Thought Of?

[circumstances]

i'm a big ronnie brown fan. he could have been a pretty devastating back if he hadn't been injured. see the first 7 games of the 2007 season. he was on pace for 1400 yards rushing, 5.1 ypc average, 10 rushing TDs, 90 receptions, 890 yds receiving, 10 yard average per reception, and 2 TDs. unfortunately he got injured, and the injuries have taken their toll and you have what you saw last year: a back that couldn't break many tackles, or make any yardage on his own. i believe if he never got injured in his career he would have lived up to the number 2 overall pick in that draft (amongst alex smith, braylon edwards, cadillac williams, cedric benson).
