Also, NIU's Garrett Wolfe is a small guy with great speed and elusiveness, and could return kicks for us. These guys could both fall 3rd round or later, so theres no need to resign either Betts or Duckett. However its a buyers market for backs right now, so I expect them to let Betts and Duckett test the water, and sign back relatively cheaply.
nah, BL is going to be drafted as a V back, to block, run and catch... kinda like griffith in atlanta or alstott in tampa... he'll probably still go towards the end of the first day.

and we won't have a 3rd round pick to use on an RB. we can FA sign a CB and draft a DE with our 1, then it's just roster fill, so resigning betts would be a good idea unless someone blows him away, which i doubt.
