I dont think they need any more running backs. They got power backs that can do the job in Staley and Haynes.

not only do they have staley and haynes, but they also drafted cedric humes out of v-tech for that role in the future as well.

Finally someone mentions this guy. Humes is a great north/south bruiser. He hits the hole hard and quick and is a load to tackle. In college he averaged over 4 yards a carry. Like Haynes, he can play both full and half back. With some time and good coaching you guys will see him be productive. If Staley can't stay healthy, we'll probally see him sooner than later. My faith of the Steelers bruising running game is with this guy.
