Should Dolphins sign Edgerrin James?

[BAMAPHIN 22]

Ricky Williams was in a great role for himself, at 32, for the last couple of seasons. He has 105 carries so far for a career-high 5.3 yards a carry this year - or 42 carries less than Ronnie Brown. That played out to just under 200 carries for Ricky, a good figure for a veteran who still is a very physical back.

But with Brown out now, the question isn't whether Ricky's numbers go up, but by how much? And with Patrick Cobbs also out, how much trust is there in Lex Hilliard? We'll start finding out the answer about Hilliard tonight.

Finally, do the Dolpins go out and get a veteran back like Edgerrin James for the rest of this season?

The question isn't just what James can offer. It's the wear and tear he'd save on Ricky's body.

James was cut by Seattle after playing seven games with minimal impact: 46 carries, 127 yards, 2.7-yard average.

I dont think it would hurt having 2 experienced backs in there if we are going to make a run at the playoffs. Especially if they can pull out a win tonight

Bring in EDGE!

I'd love the move. Ive always been a big Edge fan. Sign him to a two year deal so next year...we would likely have..Ronnie..Ricky...and Edge...that sounds preaty sweet right there

He'd likely come cheap, considering he has no other offers, and he went to Miami for his college ball, it'd be a home coming of sorts. And I still believe he has a little bit left in the tank.

NOPE on edge. I'd rather use ricky and test our new guys. Rookies come in and have impacts as running backs all the time, why waste growth potential on the has been that is edge?

How about a receiver. We already have Williams.

We should bring him in
