If they go out and look for a "big back" then the 4th round pick of Manuel White (when they could have taken Chris Canty, DE, Virginia) is even more of a complete waste that it already was. Plus they've still got Nehemiah Broughton.

offiss was right. The O-line never really did take control of a game when Gibbs called on them to do it. Losing Randy Thomas and a hobbling Chris Samuels didn't help the situation either. There has to be a draft pick devoted to a solid lineman in reserve. I'm still not convinced on Derrick Dockery, and Casey Rabach didn't exactly light the world on fire either. I think we've seen the best this O-line has to offer -- and it's not quite enough.
