    anyone like Chris Johnson, the RB from East Carolina? I've seen many people predicting him to go in the mid to late second round.

    Johnson? IMO, I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up a WR. He's slight, he's got a receiver's build. He was used extensively as a slot, and out of the backfield.

    as for RB, if we drop Foster, we're in the market. I don't know if Goings will be back, or Hoover. If Foster doesn't stay, Goings might be that 2 back; that's fine, and then we could use a 3. If we're looking for a 2, I'd rather it be a vet - Mewelde Moore, Michael Pittman, and so on. I read a rumor that we like TJ Duckett, but I don't think that's enough.

    He's probably the best senior out there. With the juniors coming out though you are right sometime in the 2nd most likely. He has the speed you covet. But I agree with Larry, not sure we need to go RB on day one, unless we cut Foster.

    I don't know that he's better than Hart, or Matt Forte, but either way there's about 8 underclass backs who are better.

    State's DaJuan Morgan declared today. I'd be interested in anyone's take on him. He's a fantastic tackler, but I'm not sure how he stacks up overall as a safety.

    I'd throw Tashard Choice in there too.

    Michigan's Arrington is coming out too. I like him.

    That's the second time you've mentioned him, and I agree he'd be a serious asset (even considering how much I love Hoover). Frankly, I was a bit surprised that MIN picked him up with Kleinsasser on the roster, but I may be showing my ignorance a bit there.

    I like Richardson as much as the next guy, but how much sense does it make to sign a guy that's older (36 to Hoover's 31) than the guy you're replacing when they're both on the wrong side of 30?
