Joey DeMartino, RB, Utah State

Chiefs, UDFA. Enters the Chiefs roster as probably the sixth running back, so he has a ways to go before making the roster. And he seems to need to have a heavy workload to excel, which I think will be hard … Continue reading

Alfred Blue, RB/FB, Louisiana State

Texans, Round 6. Was a junior. I don’t see an NFL future for him, but he does fit better in Houston than at most other teams. But he’s behind Arian Foster, Dennis Johnson, and Ray Graham off the bat. Positives: Okay … Continue reading
