you need fred for 7-10 touches a game...he's great on screens without lineman, with some guys out front he'll be even better. He's a good running back behind a crap line. He's blitz pick up as Rich Gannon notes repeatedly is the best in the league and one of the best of all time. I understand Whaley wanting to get more production out of Bryce and make the trade look better but in my opinion this team needs Fred Jackson's attributes more than Bryce Browns. Fred is obviously getting close to the end and this shows up in the injuries much more frequent. As far as taking carries away -ya it's called a back up that's what they do
