Well, yeah! Rex is a special teams stud, Lewis an explosive kick returner, Dorsett could potentially be on punts and Malcolm Mitchell went to IR so they need another field stretcher, White is an awesome pass-catching back and Gilly is a monster between the tackles. Do your job everybody!

Who am I kidding nobody knows the mind of BB

My best guess is that we are just going to see a lot of RB usage tonight. Amendola will play a little extra too but we're going to see a whole bunch of multi-RB formations out there. With Mitchell on IR, Dorsett brand new and the third TE inactive, we'll probably see Lewis/White spend extra time split out as receivers with Burkhead/Gillislee in the backfield. Bolden is active so they have their special teams player already and I don't expect Gillislee to see that many looks out of the backfield in week 1. Belichick was saying he still has a ways to go after the third preseason game so I'm thinking he may be a threat to run in a short TD but he probably has single-digit touches overall. So I'm still feeling Burkhead tonight and the extra snaps for Lewis/White as receivers will see one of them hit too.

More carries than any 2 other RBs on the roster combined

It looks like Yahoo gave everyone who left a Miami or TB player in their lineup a 0 when this game started. So there's a headache to deal with.

Quoting this because I talked to the guy at work today. He didnt want to do Hunt for either TE straight up. He said he was worried about Mixon because of the "third string on the depth chart" thing. He said for both Hunt and Mixon he'd do either TE, but thats being a little greedy on his part I think.

Could we work out a deal? My WRs are sorta weak, I dont have much to offer him there. Evans, Watkins, Cobb and DJax are my only WRs, it might be better for me to keep an eye out for a WR I could trade for instead of a TE.

Ok after tonight I do not think I will be trading Mr. Hunt for any tight end. Though he came back to me later on after the game started and said he'd trade either TE for him, no need for Mixon :smug:
