Isn't Cornerback as Big a Need as OL?

You're speaking to the president of the "Shanahan can't draft" club. But even though he misses on a lot of picks, the running backs who PLAY always perform.

Has Blount had any issues other than the punch? He might be worth a look late in the draft or if he goes undrafted. I'd prefer if he's an UDFA though since he didn't exactly come back strong despite practicing with the team the whole time.

I don't think he has. I'm just pointing out that he's a douchebag.

If he's a scheme fit, and he doesn't cost anything, then he can be a douchebag who scores 8 TDs for my team. But those are the kind of guys that you have to be right on, and SmootSmack was pointing out that Shanahan has brought these guys in, and then found out they couldn't play at a later time.

Yeah, the punch didn't bother me all that much because Hout was being a HUGE douchebag the whole game. If that happened with helmets on it wouldn't be any different than what we saw Monday night. The part that bothered me was his continued anger when he was being escorted away.

Blount would be interesting in rd 4 or 5 . GTripp , what do you think of , E. Williams , Rinehart , M. Williams as backups or being able to be capable starters in 2010 ?

I think an interior line of Mike Williams, Rinehart, and Edwin Williams would be better than an interior line of Will Montgomery, Derrick Dockery, and Casey Rabach. I'd actually like to see that starting OL for one year, with fresh blood at the tackle positions.

But it's easily screwed up. A line of Dockery, Edwin Williams, and Mike Williams would get no push in the running game. No athletcism. A line of Dockery, E. Williams, and Rinehart would look a lot like this years line. Bringing Rabach back would delay the inevitable, I think.
