What is your take on this kid? If you don't know who he is, he's a Syracuse grad who didn't get drafted. He signed as a undrafted FA to Detroit, who then sold his rights to Indy. Last year in replacement of a struggling James, Mungro ran for 336 yards on 97 attempts and had 8 TD's in 9 games (only 1 did he start). I've had the chance to meet him a few times because he has connections with my one buddy. Real nice guy and we tried watching him every chance we could last year. He's a classy guy that you've got to ruit for to do good, but will he? What's your take on this kid if you've seen him play?

I've seen him play, like him a lot, and even created him in Madden a couple of months ago ;)

Saw him tear up the Eagles for something like 114 yds and 2 TDs in his first start. If Edge is healthy I imagine he would go into this season as their 2nd string RB, and from what I've seen of him so far he should continue to be a fine pro.

He just reupped his contract with Indy for 2 more years at 400,00 a year + endorsements, so I'm real happy for the guy. I hope he keeps up the good work and gets a good amount of PT next year.

I just saw him in one game but he looked pretty good. His cards might be a good sleeper pick. ;)

He saved my *** in a FFLeague when he had one of his better games as my main RB was on his bye week. Wheeeew!

I agree BGray, I picked up Mungro as well just before the Eagles game, and he and Dee Brown carried my team when a couple of my regular backs got hurt. Didn't win, finished 3rd, but depending on how Edge is this coming season I might pick him after the draft to ride my bench just in case:).
