I'm surprised they didn't bring back Harrison, but they seem to be able to get production out whoever they bring in as a back.

I wouldn't go that far. Philly has had many issues with under performing backs in recent years. Pretty much everybody not named Mccoy and Westbrook has disappointed in some regard.

It doesn't surprise me to see Harrison leaving, he's just too similar to Mccoy. I mean what is the guys role in the offense? I can't think of a single situation where i'd rather have him in the lineup over Mccoy other than to provide a breather from time to time. Mccoy shouldn't need a breather though as Andy likes to rotate with specialists anyway.

Rocca is a bit of a surprise since he had been doing pretty well in recent years. Mikell is still a good safety but he's got a couple of youngsters nipping at his heals in Kurt Coleman and draft pick Jaiqwan Jarrett. Bradley is going to be one hell of a pickup for somebody and i'm sorry to see him go. Unfortunately his price tag was going to be expensive, he's coming off of yet another injury, and Jamar Chaney looked like a beast filling in for him last season.

Who steps in for Harrison as the backup running back?

[Peter Smith]

Stewart Bradley is a helluva player in between injuries.

Well they drafted Dion Lewis from Pitt and Stanley Havili from USC. I'd imagine we're gonna see some youth in the backfield next year one way or another. I wouldn't put it past them to bring in a veteran backup though, Reid has a track record of it.
