Why in the world would we draft a player with the 14th pick who is going to get an avg of 5 carries a game? We are going to lead the league in passing and that means that we can be no better than around 15ish in rushing.
Draft someone who can contribute more like an OT, DE, DT FS, or CB with the 14th pick and draft one of the bigger lesser known backs in the 4 or 5 round. Like Bill Parcels always says you have to ignore how or where you got the player and make the best of him now that you have him.

Is someone going to start an NFL draft day thread? I am not worthy of such a job and would screw it up.

beanie = bust
definitely go defense. get a running back in round 2 or 3 at best. like mccoy, greene, or ringer.
do what the cowboys have done (since yall steal all their players anyway). barber and choice were not first rounders (4th's i think)
or just steal them away in free agency like always

By the way McShay said last night on ESPN that he has inside sources with the Saints who are saying that they are going Wells regardless of whos left on the board.

See this was the difference, not Deuce.
Sorry to break it to you.

YEAR ONE:
1,000 yard rusher in Deuce McCallister

Defense ranked 19th in total defense
YEAR TWO:
Deuce injured, under .500 NO PLAYOFFS! Defense drops 5 spots in total defense
YEAR THREE:
Deuce not the same, not used NO PLAYOFFS!Defense again drops in rankings leading to firing of defensive coordinator
Yeah you bums go ahead and keep wishing for a FS/CB hybrid. I'll leave you with this statement:
"If you don't learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it".
we need defense
there are late round running backs in every draft

Wow, do not take Beanie or Moreno please! Go defensive and try to get Rashad Jennings later.

the only position that would likely see a lot of PT next year is FS, and i don't know if there are any good pure FS prospects worthy of 14

hes a big finesse back with a stiff arm and no burst
Posted on 4/18/09 at 7:51 pm to wizard of smart
is Jennings like a Matt Forte type of rb?

Jennings as a junior (2007) season

not a whole lot of speed, but he can catch, and has power
He can bench 395
Combine Numbers:
4.67 40, 29 reps on the bench press, 34 inch vert, 10 foot broad jump, 6.86 in the 3 cone drill, 4.2 in the 20 yard shuffle, 11.46 in the 60 yard shuffle

trade the pick, for a 1st rounder next year. Then we'll have two first rounders in the Eric Berry sweepstakes

people always forget too that Deuce could catch the ball out of the backfield and also pick up the blitz, on top of being a downhill runner. its not JUST about being 240 and falling forward, especially with the amount of times we throw the football a game.
