GMEN HQ continues its positional breakdown series with news, notes and analysis on a six-pack of RB’s.
If it was easy to predict which players would make a team, coaches wouldn’t spend hours in meetings discussing roster cuts. Teams would pick 53 players and a practice squad and immediately begin preparations for the season.
The Giants currently have six running backs on their depth chart. We don’t know how many they will keep for the season, but we can probably assume that they won’t be keeping all of them. By breaking down key factors that affect a back’s on-field performance — skill level, professional experience, running style and versatility — we can make a profoundly educated guess on which men you’ll see toting the ball on the field in 2014.
