You don\u2019t want to put all the carries and targets on one guy. So right now we\u2019re identifying guys that are available in the draft, identifying free agents we might go after, looking at our own roster and seeing who can share that. It\u2019s important that Jeanty has a wingman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last year Jeanty\u2019s backups were Raheem Mostert and Zamir White, both of whom become free agents next month. The only other running back on the roster, Dylan Laube, had seven carries for nine yards last season.
