I don't know. If he came in today he's better than what we've been rolling out there the last couple of weeks. David Johnson is still a week or two away and even then he is unproven. Ellington isn't an every down back. If Johnson signs he will be used right off the bat IMO.

I mean that as in the named starter. With injuries, which we have, he would. Arians wants someone to be able to practice, so he would likely right away.

But when the other two are healthy, I'd see him as the 3rd back.

That really changes the minds of those drafting Ellington in their fantasy leagues. Bad enough that you have to worry about him getting injured. Now not sure how many touches he gets when healthy. I think I am more likely to go with Ivory, Martin, or Yelton over Ellington now that coach even has his doubts about our RB position.

Maybe David Johnson gets healthy and we can have a Johnson & Johnson tandem.. a baby shampoo backfield.. and if they both do good there will be "no more tears" for fans of the anemic Cardinals running game.

As Cardinal fans, I'd love for our running game to give us no more tears.

Giving our opponents two Johnsons at a time? no?

Johnson blowed his way into the end zone.

In the past 8 months he's been caught with a gun and shot in a drive-by shooting. If we're taking a chance on him why not Ray Rice?

I'm wondering if the ship has sailed.
