No, Slayton is another Portis great burst but the kid will get beat up in the NFL he is another change of pace guy, Gibbs would end his career before it starts running him between the tackles 25 times a game.

Until this team realizes that it all starts up front we will never have a running game regardless of who's running the ball, we need to draft bonified road graters our line needs to be rebuilt, now if Gibbs didn't piss our picks away every year we might already have a 2 or 3 guys ready to step in and assume that role, unfortunately we have a lot of skill players with no one to allow them to do their thing on the field because there are defenders all over them every time they get the ball. Gibbs is like a kid at the super market with the draft, he runs right to the candy isle, he needs to get his ass into the vegetable isle that is where you build a strong healthy body. HEY JOE, BUILD A REAL OFFENSIVE LINE WITH QUALITY DEPTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And stop taking on every one else's rejects and making them starters!
