Re: Our 2010 First Round Draft Pick Should Be...

I think I'm split between o-line and qb, but what I would hope is that we go o-line for the first couple rounds, and we can pick up a free agent qb and stick him back there for a year and then focus on getting a great talent at quarterback in the 2011 draft or through free agency in 2010 if we see lots of big talent hitting the market.

Running back is not a concern although I would like to replace Portis after this season. I feel pretty confident that a good coach could go pluck a running back out of the mid rounds and have him be successful. So many coaches are doing that nowadays and finding successfull running backs it's ridiculous. Brandon Jacobs, Marion Barber, and Tashard Choice were all 4th round picks. There's no reason we couldn't find somebody explosive in the mid rounds. And we could either make Portis come off the bench occasionally and have a nice two back system with the new back being more of an explosive home run hitter and have Portis doing more of the mauler. At this point in his career I think Portis is more of a grinder than a burner.
