    If they don't think Foster is the feature back, and they do think one of the big 3 is, and one falls, we need to take him. So agreed.

    Foster has feature back talent but not feature back durability. He reminds me a lot of Timmy B.

    If Maurice Clarett fell to the bottom of the fifth..I think I'd take a gamble on him.

    Hi all. :)

    I don't think we can wait that long, for one. And considering his numbers I'm not certain he'll be drafted anyway.


    I personally like Benson for this offense. He's powerfully built, and has enough burst to mitigate the lack of top end speed, and has less to work on that say an Eric Shelton. I can see where mags is coming from a bit, but production at 14 is more important than the picks with unlimited upside. Benson IMO is going to give you 1300 yards and some ferocity.

    We could probably do worse. I'm not against having him - it's not like I'd say something weird like "he's going to bust" :satana: - but I was just expecting more out of that pick.

    We probably will rush the ball 400 times, but even a feature back wouldn't get all of them. I think it'd be more along the lines of 350 or so.

    Actually it was about 30 carries under, but still a high amount.

    Yes but. TB had more than 2 injuries. It was one right after the other, and he was uninstinctive to go with it. Probably part of the reason he was injured.

    You know, Carnell Williams had 2 season ending injuries too. People want to take him if he falls.

    I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm just not sure.
