"Eight under-the-radar rookies to watch"

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/70854...>1=10347

Quote:Garrett Wolfe, Bears, RB
When Chicago traded 1,000-yard back Thomas Jones prior to April's draft, several fans were left scratching their heads. Four months later, Bears camp is abuzz about the platoon they'll be employing in the backfield. The combination of third-year battering ram Cedric Benson, veteran Adrian Peterson and rookie Garrett Wolfe will bring versatility and excitement to the Bears offense. Wolfe is the wild card. Favorably compared to everyone from Maurice Jones-Drew to Dave Meggett, Wolfe is a 5-7 dynamo with blazing speed and a surprising bit of power. The local schoolboy hero (Wolfe starred at Chicago's Holy Cross High School) was the first player in Mid-American Conference history to lead the league in rushing, all-purpose yardage and scoring three consecutive seasons. The Bears will look to him as a scat-back type. Don't be shocked if you hear Chris Berman give some cheesy Duran Duran "Hungry Like the Wolfe" reference accompanying a Wolfe scramble to the end zone at least once this season. And more than likely, a few more times than that.
