I don't think any team has enough depth. These billionaire owners are greedy and severely limit the roster size so teams barely get by when suffering through injuries and now there's a 27th game. Plus, the good teams play more games in the playoffs. If you think having two guys is enough, fine. I think it's not deep.
We have at least five WRs who can ball out, but our RB stable sits at two. RBs don't get hurt? Is that because they play a position with little contact?
Right now our roster isn't set. I boldly predict that we add to our RB depth before Sept 12. I see nothing luxurious about it. What were doing is packing for a three day weekend trip and bringing two days worth of clothes.

I get your gist brother.
I will agree that if Cam Akers goes down and if Darrell Henderson gets injured quickly right behind him, the current RB's on the roster are unproven and a big disadvantage on paper.
Maybe Xavier Jones, Raymond Calais or Jank Funk are better than our view from the armchair living room.
Assuming the top 2 starting RB's will be injured for a long period of time is a worst case scenario. Every team has to worry about that.
What if Whitworth gets injured? Or maybe Kupp goes down early in the season. Maybe Donald, Ramsey or Darious Williams get hurt and the Rams lack quality depth at those positions and suffer losses because of it.
Depth and Health are always a concern. No team is 3 deep at multiple positions.
I would rather lose the top 2 RB's in the regular season than losing Donald, Whit, Kupp, Woods, Ramsey, Stafford or Higbee.
NFL depth after the first and second strings is a shark bate anyway you look at it.
