Should We or Could We Draft Steve Slaton from West Virginia

[EternalEnigma21]

ray rice would be a better changeup back if we're trying to establish a two back system. you look at teams with young tough running backs like marion barber, marshawn lynch, and of course adrian peterson...

slayton is great, and mcfadden will go way to early, but rice may not be a first rounder (who knows) and he reminds me alot of a young john riggins... dudes big, tough, and fast...

Yeah, I honestly like him the best out of the three myself. He takes a pounding and dishes it out as well. He does not have huge holes for him, grinds it out tough, moves piles, wears out defenses, and has big play ability.

I also agree about the college football season winding down bringing up the speculation, but what has got me thinking more about the future of this franchise is the realization that Campbell is our guy, and we need to build around him. I don't want to wind up like the Miami Dolphins who were in denial of the fact that they weren't just a few free agent moves or players away from the Super Bowl. They kept trying to put band aids over their problems when they needed surgery. After that New England game, you've got to see that we're not close.
