Marshawn has one or two years left (tops) before his body starts breaking down for good. The RB position is the one I respect the most in the NFL, even though it's said it's one of the more replaceable... especially if you have a decent offensive line.
Those guys take a beating more then anybody else, and when they reach the end of the line, it's usually all of a sudden, and fairly sad to watch.
Look at some of the running backs the Chiefs have had over the years. Larry Johnson, Priest Holmes. Superstars one year and training camp fodder the next. Jamaal Charles is probably not far behind.
Chris Johnson, Terrell Davis. 2000 Yard rushers, pretty much done by their late 20's.
