I think if we can get each of these three RBs to embrace a limited role spread around in thirds, then we could have a pretty solid run-by-committee backfield. It's obviously very temporary given their age, but Allen/Shanny know we have other big needs in the draft on both sides of the ball and only 5 picks to address them. We could probably get away with not drafting a back this year. I don't love the idea, but Shanny's offenses have had monster rushing years with lesser backfields than we have as of today.

Certainly it would be fun to draft a guy like CJ Spiller or Ryan Matthews, but would that help us more than a top flight lineman, QB, or LB? For this upcoming season, I'm not so sure.
