I think he's a good change of pace back because of his power running style. I don't see him becomming our starter.
He showed flashes of being a potential feature RB last year. I don't think they got his thyroid medication fully stabilized until week 10 or so.... that's when he looked a step faster to me. No RB, or QB for that matter, could have looked good behind that offensive line we had. He definitely has to work on his pass blocking, something Martin does extremely well, and is under rated in that aspect of the game. Houston let J Taylor run right by him for a sack in that second Miami game.... Martin would have chipped him first, to buy Bollinger some time before going into his outlet pattern. Blaylock is a better thrid down back, and is a better blocker, but Houston has the tools to improve. That thyroid condition set him back last year..... I want to see how he looks this year, now that it's under control. I think Curtis will get around 225 rushes, Houston 100, Blaylock 60, Washington 30 or so. That could change if one of them emerges, but that's my guess.
I think his built is designed for a one two punch. He's do real great over in Falcon, or Bronco land.
