The word out of Houston is tat Slaton will carry the rock between the 20's but that Chros Brown will get all the goal line carries. That means that slaton will lose probably at last 4-6 TD's this year do to Brown. Instead of Slaton racking up 1400 yds and 13 TD's, he'll likely drop to 1300 yds an 8 TD's.
However, I'm not sold o Favre yet. He might ebd up being aroun the 8th - 10th QB in the league but that's not enough for a low end #1 RB/ high end #2 RB in Slaton. If you can get Favre for Caddy then fine, otherwise hold on to Slaton.
BTW, the Steelers face the easiest schedul in the lague this season. The face 9 crappy run defenses and 6 crappy pass defnses. While Big Ben in no gun-slinger and the Steelers have traditionally made their way on offense by pounding the ball up the middle on the ground, Roth sould b a decent QB that doesn't PREVENT your team from winning. He's not going to carry your team week in, week out but you seem to have a good supporting cast aroudhim and overall, your team is pretty sound as it stands right now.
