Probably could be a decent runningback in the league with a good line but there's always room for an upgrade....</div>Man what I'd give to have Lamont back....

    I found the Runningback I want....<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Jets continue to explore the running backs market. The latest names added to the list are the Cardinals' Marcel Shipp and the Chargers' Michael Turner, who worked with Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer the past two years.</div>http://www.newsday.com/sports/football/jet...l=ny-jets-print5'10, 237 with great speed (4.4, I believe)Averaged almost 6 yards a carry working as LT's backup the past 2 seasons.http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?statsId=6913I wonder what it would take to get him....

Probably something like a 3rd rounder.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Comment:He is an effective inside runner - runs with good power and does a solid job of keeping his feet moving after contact. He runs with good balance and body control and will make yards after contact. He flashes the ability to get the corner. He is a little straight-line as a runner. He does not show top quickness or change of direction in the hole. He is not a quick cutting type of runner and does not elude very well in line. He needs some work in the passing game as a receiver and as a blocker.</div>

I dont think their comments give him enough credit with his speed as I remember seeing him play and he looked rather quick to me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH6saX-bMWg...related&search=YouTube never fails.
