When the Pittsburgh Steelers picked running back Rashard Mendenhall in the first round of the 2008 draft, it became fairly obvious that veteran Najeh Davenport would be the odd man out.
And that’s precisely the case.
A league source tells us that the Steelers are shopping Davenport, calling teams to gauge potential interest.
Davenport is signed through 2008, and he’s scheduled to earn a base salary of $1 million this season. He rushed for 499 yards on 107 carries in 2007.

sucks to be him! Already too many “serviceable” backs in FA or about to be FA’s (LaMont) etc. They wont get SH!T for him, unless they are willing to accept a 2 liter bottle of shasta and a 1/2 pack of bubble gum in a trade.

Davenport isn’t a dump truck. He’s a series of (intestinal) tubes.

Sounds like someone has been refusing to take his steroids so the Steelers made moves to replace him.
Steroids - it’s the Steelers way
