I think the Skins are looking for someone with good hands and explosiveness to fill the 3rd down back role. My guess is that Helu was supposed to be that player but he hasn't been healthy lately.
Apparently, Skins management thinks that Slaton might be able to reclaim his career in that role. I have my doubts about Slaton but it wouldn't hurt my feelings if the Skins were to bring in a back who could be a big play threat in the passing game.
