It may be time to stop looking for an expensive backup to Charles.
Reid doesn't utilize power backs, really. He kinda used Buckhalter, but not terribly well. He's going to continue to look for fast, shifty, HR style RBs.
His RB usage is perfect for Charles - 250ish carries and a bunch more passes out of the backfield. Why do we need Bradshaw to pick up the scraps there? Bradshaw would've been great if we were trying to run last season's offense, but I just don't think there's a need for a top tier backup to Charles in this system.
I like Bradshaw a ton - yeah, he gets dinged but he plays through a lot and is a damn tough runner - he's just not right for this team, IMO.
As for Canty - yeah, I'm on board there.
