I agree that's exactly why I brought this guy to everyone's attention. I like Adrian Peterson alot, but he went down with a bad injury and Wolfe is good, but he's nothing more than a change of pace back. Rhodes has been impressive in tough situations throughout his career, he filled in his rookie for Edgerrin James, when he was an undrafted rookie and ran for over 1,000 yards and of course in Super Bowl 41 against the Bears he ran for over 100 yards and destroyed the Bears defense, which was led by Ron Rivera.

forte definitely isnt right.he almost never gets caught from behind like he did on one of his long runs.
rhodes may be a little long in the tooth but could be used for a couple of series.he's a nice blocker and would protect cutler on passing downs far better than the diminutive wolfe.
a quality seasoned vet like rhodes,who could be gotten for short money,would help the bears run game at this point.
good post

Nice insight I can see Rhodes fitting in with Da Bears!

Rhodes is definitely the best option available and I don't think Wolfe is enough depth behind Forte who looks banged up
