I've had LaRod in past seasons as I'm always looking for young RBs that might come through at some point (Keeper League). I've always liked what he brought to the table and never thought he got a fair shake.
Many times in the past he got on the field and looked better than Hightower - only to be almost out of the game plan next week. The coaches think he's too small to carry the workload I'm assuming... but I really hate assumptions. He can catch out of the backfield, has speed and seems to find the hole decently well.
A lot of people don't like LaRod, and I understand why, but I'm not one of them. I think if he gets more reps he might shine a bit more. Key word being might. Even as a LaRod fan his size does scare me.
I am wondering since the injury to Williams what your thoughts are on LaRod. I'm been following his career off and on since he came into the league but I'm sure many of you have more information as to his potential concerning the Cards backfield.
How do the Cards coaches feel about him? Is he going to get playing time? Are they going to grab someone in FA or trade and send LaRod back to #3?
I get the feeling the coaching staff doesn't like him at RB all that much. Curious as to why.
I'd love to pick him up as a deep backup on my Fantasy team but want to glean a little info out of you guys first.
