ROTB Community Projections 2009: Tim Hightower and Chris "Beanie" Wells

We'll lump Tim Hightower and Chris "Beanie" Wells together for this exercise since the most likely approach utilized by the Arizona Cardinals this season will be a running-back-by-committee system. Regardless of who starts each game, it's very likely that Wells and Hightower will split their carries pretty evenly. Whisenhunt has traditionally brought rookies along rather slowly and Wells' gimpy ankle prevented him from making any serious run at the starting job. One thing that we all hope is that the Cardinals ground game is more effective this season and that this duo can outperform last year's combo of Edgerrin James and Hightower.

The rules of the game are pretty simple, post the stats that you think Hightower and Wells will accumulate over the course of the season and then after the season ends we'll look back and see right or wrong we all were. Post your projection in the comment section using this format (preferably in the comment title):

Carries, Yards (YPC), TDs

If you're feeling frogging you can add anything extra that you want such as games played or receiving stats.

I don't know about carries

But I think they can get between 1000/1500 combined yards and 15/20 touchdowns.

TH - 191 carries, 821 yards (4.3 avg), 8 TDs.............Beanie - 145 carries, 710 yards (4.9 avg), 6 TDs

Timmy starts most of the season but Beanie’s carries increase as the season goes on.

Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

Hightower 158 carries 632 yds 6 TDs Wells- 167 carries 1032 yds 10 TDs

Hopefully Wells will do as good or even better than he did this preseason, I think he will be more successful than Hightower but receive about the same amount of carries.
