"Three running backs finished the 2011 season on injured reserve, two with torn knee ligaments and another with a broken foot. Those left healthy included two players who were undrafted, one a rookie and another who becomes an unrestricted free agent.

It sounds as if the Steelers could be in a heap of trouble at the position in 2012. However, they might be better off than they were this season.

Start with Isaac Redman. He's healthy and while he was not drafted, well, neither was Willie Parker and it took them a year to realize what they had with him. Parker made the team in 2004 and had 32 carries. He led them in '05 with 255 carries for 1,202 yards."
