As much as I hate to say it, and no disrespect to Priest because I love the guy for everything he has done for this organization, I think his time has come. It's LJs chance to shine. I think were better off without Priest. I would not like to pay 3.5, 5 million dollars, whatever the number is for a backup RB.
I mean were better off without him. Plus he's 32 year of age, and gets hurt a lot. Age isn't on his side, especially at the RB position. Don't get me wrong, I think he'd be a great #2 back. But does he want to accept a #2 role? A reserve role like Marshall Faulk is doing in St.Louis? He is gonna have to.
I'd be somewhat upset if he didn't. Id like to see him retire, and let LJ grow, and tear up the league.
