Crowded in the backfield? Where were you in the end of 2010, when we were frantically signing running backs off the street, guys who were stadium security guards and RB's who were sitting on the couch after being dropped from other teams' practice squads? The only thing that was crowded was the IR list (5 running backs on IR). So, the extremely logical move for the Saints at that point, to prevent it from happening again, was to sign a big, bruising, forward-falling SEC type power running back. Sure, lots of guys win the Heisman and go on to be busts in the pros, but not too many guys win the Heisman and a national championship in the same year -- the last one to do that was Tony Dorsett, so the kid is in pretty good company.
