and.... why do people keep saying RB? Torain runs better then Portis, is younger and healthier. So if we could ever get a OL to make holes for him we will be fine. Williams did well also yesterday and does a nice job at catching out of the back field. The big question is Davis whome people say is a great runner so give them a whole season to learn the scheme better and learn the blocking and they should be fine.
Too early to take interior OL? if that's our need its not. Especially since we are limited to so few picks early on. Unless we trade out for more picks. I'd say pick the best Center available who is good at zone blocking. Then maybe look at RT cause even the announcers yesterday said Brown was doing well but would be a lot better at RG if we could pick up a good RT.

Our rushing game was ranked 29th, second consecutive piss poor year. Portis is not an option. K Williams really did a great job, he's a number 2 or 3. Torrain did fine when healthy. Your number one back needs to be on the field most the time. Not 8-9 games. His health has always been an issue his entire, short career. I like him in the mix, but he not a number 1 IMO. We need help running the ball badly. I would like someone with speed.
NT IMO is a very important need especially in our epic fail of the first year 3-4. Our freakin D-Line struggled tremendously all season. Carriker is a keeper at DE....the other NT and DE need help bad. Gholston and Bryant are depth who can be used in the game day rotation. But not starters. We gave up 130.6 avg yards on the ground, 25th in the league.
I didnt understand your Oline question...you saying interior Oline is not a need? Wow your in the minority. I just wouldnt take a guard or center with the 10th pick, more of an impact player is needed IMO. I like Pouncy alot...not at 10
