Now as for NON-free agent players that Snyder can wag his magic moneywand or trade to get... those scenarios can get pretty goofy and i suggest we not go there or some dork will say "We can trade Portis, Betts, and a draft pick for Adrian Peterson!" or something stupid like that. Please, reasonable options only, and keep in mind, better production in a better system with a better line doesn't make a better runningback. Emmit Smith was arguable a B+ back at best... but given insanly large holes to run through, anyone can be the man. (Barry woulda got 3000 behind that line)

I don't understand why we need to be pressed for a feature back and even worst, look for one in free agency. This team will most likely move towards a 2-RB or 3-RB system. We need to find a talented RB in the later rounds, and recent acquisitions by other teams (i.e. Tashard Choice, Shonn Greene) have resulted in success.
