Your number one back needs to be on the field most the time. Not 8-9 games. His health has always been an issue his entire, short career. I like him in the mix, but he not a number 1 IMO. We need help running the ball badly. I would like someone with speed.

NT IMO is a very important need especially in our epic fail of the first year 3-4. Our freakin D-Line struggled tremendously all season. Carriker is a keeper at DE....the other NT and DE need help bad. Gholston and Bryant are depth who can be used in the game day rotation. But not starters. We gave up 130.6 avg yards on the ground, 25th in the league.

I didnt understand your Oline question...you saying interior Oline is not a need? Wow your in the minority. I just wouldnt take a guard or center with the 10th pick, more of an impact player is needed IMO. I like Pouncy alot...not at 10

No, what I'm saying is I feel our lack of yrds at RB are equal to the fact our OL sucks. If we beef up the OL with the "type" of OL needed for this system to work the RB yrds should pick up. Clearly OL was a major issue and I would probably pick up a replacement for Rabach first at Center. I feel the Guards don't need to be as talented as the 3 major base points of the OL meaning LT, Center, and RT. If those 3 positions are fixed I think our current OL will fill in nicely at guard ie; Heyer, Hicks, and Montgomery and Lickenstien (sp). So in all actuality I'm saying the OL needs to be addressed, but RB does not. Torain is a really good runner, but I'll admit he needs to work on his blocking. This can be fixed with the team helping him learn where the rush should be coming from over the summer. Also some coach's do great things with a #1 RB, some coach's make #1 RB's out of the scheme they run which is where MS stands. I just thing spending a high pick for a RB or WR is a luxury at this point plus it all depends on what the team does in FA.

You mention NT and I agree with you and it was on my list of needs, but I was pleasantly supprised with the guy who played NT yesterday. I think he will work out and possibly pick up a second NT in case our guy gets hurt or needs a break.

I would pick BPA at our needed positions of Center, RT, or NT with the first 2 picks. If picking up a RT is easy late in the draft then so be it pick up a Center and NT. However I don't think Grossman is our answer completely and I'm not sure what Beck is going to offer. So we might want to look into a project QB to develope for a year. Which I brought up the TCU QB Andy Dalton, he seemed accurat, fast, strong armed, and seemed over all a decent kid. If the team could possibly drop down in the draft and pick up a 3rd round pick and hope he's there or throw in a 7th and a 5th to move up? I don't know but he might be a QB who would work well in this scheme.
