Yahee boys. The undervalued one here is Cadillac -9 TDs and 800 yards this year – take it to the bank.

i think Ward will end up with over 50% of the carries. he was the first major aquisition for this new coaching staff and GM so it’s their guy. Graham has been a preseason and practice squad guy for the bucs for years and has emerged recently but he is not a star imo. Caddy is risky threat but has had so many injuries and he has lost a step… As much as i would like to draft a buc runing back as a fan i am staying away from this whole platoon until i get mid round value for ward…

Earnest Graham was on the punt coverage team tonight. That doesn’t sound like someone who will be getting nearly fifty percent of the carries. My guess is that Graham will be the fullback since he excelled at it when asked to do it last year.

I’m a Caddy fan. However, I don’t see him shouldering the load or staying healthy for long unless he changes his running style and if he does that he may not be the same runner. So I see Ward and Graham being the work horses and if Caddy stays healthy he will be strictly situational. imo

Might be BS………they have a good amount of cash tied down to Ward and Graham now…….they should get a combined 90% of carries.

Just my thoughts.
