The Facts:
The Cardinals are searching for a young running back to share the load with James. HC Ken Whisenhunt mentioned current backups J.J. Arrington and Marcel Shipp as contenders. But they were on the roster last year and carried the ball little, so they likely aren't in the picture.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Whisenhunt remained complimentary of James' ability and pointed out that James gained 1,232 yards. But the Cardinals would like to add a back with more breakaway ability. "It would be nice to have a guy who would give us the home-run ability at that position like we've seen a lot of young backs do recently," Whisenhunt said. Arrington was once believed to be that guy; apparently he's not now.
