RB has to be our weakest group. I think we'll need to pick up a veteran backup for Matt Jones. Also, Thompson is not the answer as a 3rd Down back, IMO. As for the rookies looking good in training camp, well, I've heard this before in many training camps and I've learned that it doesn't mean anything.
My RB depth chart would look like this:
1. Matt Jones
2. Not Yet on Roster (Jones backup)
3. Not yet on Roster (3rd Down back)
4. Thompson (he's a legitimate pro player and a veteran who knows the system)
5. Marshall (based primarily on his good size and great speed)
