Torain declined in production and consistency from what Shanahan said. He also lost his burst through the holes. Plus the emergence of Helu and Royster made him expendable. He also is not that good of a blocker.

TY for link.
That definitely helps clarify a bit.

Sure, why not. He's probably better than Diehl

Curtis Painter isnt for this season but for when rosters expand in the offseason Im guessing. He grasps the system even though he isnt very good in it

I would rather have the Giants sign Joseph Addai.

Addai is done... The Pats had a look at him during the off-season and cut him within a week.
