Quote:
Beat reporter Jerry McDonald expects Darren McFadden to see "15 to 20 touches per game" as a rookie, "plus the occasional kick return."

McFadden has seen a lot of receiving work in OTA practices and figures to dominate third-down snaps. Our Draft Guide (available now) projects him to run for 990 yards and five touchdowns on 200 carries, with 29 catches.

No kick returns please.....

How much better would Timmy Brown have been had he not torn his knee up returning a kickoff vs the Dolts on opening day in '89???

I'd like to see Tyvon Branch or Chad Schilenz return kick-offs TBH.

As long as McFadden can make those 15 to 20 carries count, that'd be great.

250 carries 8 TDs 1100 yards. Not bad with another 800 from Fargas (3 TDs) and 400 from Bush (8 TDs - short yardage guy plus a couple break away receptions).



Homer, I know.

I doubt he'll carry the ball that many times, 20 carries a game is starting numbers.

I think that is about the right amount of rushing yards (possibly less) and more catches.
