The running back carousel continued in the offseason with a few surprisng moves. The Giants traded for Reuben Droughns from the Cleveland Browns. It seems like a redunant move, as they already have Brandon Jacobs. The Giants would be best served adding a 3rd down type back with speed and pass catching ability. Could Florida State RB Lorenzo Booker be a target in the draft?

The Raiders added Dominic Rhodes and Justin Griffith to a backfield that already included Justin Fargas and Lamont Jordan. New head coach Lane Kiffin was skilled at rotating backs at USC, but he does not have Reggie Bush on this team.

The Lions, who already added Tatum Bell in the off-season, as insurance for Kevin Jones, signed FA runner TJ Duckett. This may allow the Lions to trade Bell, but they are currently seeking a 2nd round pick in return, which would be hard to see a team doing.

Chris Brown is still available, with Green Bay and Buffalo in pursuit of the former Colorado star. Both teams could sign Brown to pair with a first day pick in the 2007 NFL Draft.
