Well here's my take on the current running back situation.
30 Brooks, Zac - Will be cut and maybe make it to PS
36 Collins, Alex - On the bubble has not separated himself at least in games, question is has he been hurt or not getting it yet, needs to show that he is a better all round back then some of our bubble guys.
41 Farmer, George - Bubble, came in as CB given a shot at RB and has been consistent, not wow but more consistent then Collins
32 Michael, Christine - Lock at this time, took his game to a whole new level since last pre season.
26 Pope, Troymaine - Bubble, Interesting prospect, has lit it up with his opportunity, if there was a true change of pace type back it's this guy, has the speed to get outside and makes people miss, his size is a question as far as how much punishment he can take, has shown more then Collins and or Brooks, question I would have above all else is his hands, has not been asked to catch many passes so far.
22 Prosise, C.J. - Showed he can catch the ball and looked comfortable taking the ball from the hand off, isn't going to shake and bake or make people miss much as a RB, but can be a duel threat and respected as a RB, if split out will be a nice option with his WR skills, would not count on him as a pure RB from what I have seen so far, think he has the size to be durable, less wiggle then Tate had and better hands.
34 Rawls, Thomas - Lock
38 Madden, Tre - IR think he would have been a FB, he has a whole season to get a NFL body for next year now.
So my selections after game three.
Rawls, Michael, Prosise, Collins, Pope, if we keep 5 Pope because he has a different skill set and running style then the rest of our backs. I think they wanted Brooks to be what Pope has shown. Farmer may slip to PS, if Collins isn't injured then Farmer could actually steal that spot as well, unless they make him a FB.
