Default What Running Back Do You Want?

Let's just say that the Patriots are going to draft a runningback at some point (not saying they will). Who do you want?

My first choice would be Tony Hunt, then Lorenzo Booker, then Brian Leonard.

Hunt and Bush are the ones I like because we could use a big boy to offset what Maroney brings.

Booker would interest me if they plan to move on from Faulk after 2007 but I don't think that's the case.

Leonard would interest me if Maroney is in trouble for this year with the shoulder thing (I don't think he is but who knows).

Everybody's favorite, Casale, said that Bush reminds him of Ron Dayne, FWIW.

Bush isn't a true power back, for sure, but at where I think we could get him (early day two) he's still a guy I like.

It's tricky because Booker is a whole different animal from the others. But I'll say Leonard, Booker, Hunt and Bush would all look good on this team.

Add Brandon Jackson to the list and I'm cool.

I had thought Bush in the 3rd or Mike Wright in the 5/6th.

Both are pretty powerful and have a different style than Maroney, much more Dillon like. Hadn't heard the comparison to Dayne, but I don't really understand why he busted so fast.

Guys like Irons seem too small, he's only 202 pounds or something.
