We need to fix the front seven first and foremost and get a RB later on. I would take Ben Tate with one of our second rounders.
We ALL agree that we need to draft fron seven folks. If we draft three additions, I am fine with those being any of our first four picks. How much does it really matter whether we use our 22 on Spiller and then draft three front seven folks or if we draft a RB at 53.
The difference is value. Spiller may be judged to be much better than anyone when pick in the second. And just perhaps the DE's and OLB's available at 22 won't be jusged so much better.
We ALL know our needs, and we WILL fill them.
But guys like Spiller or even Best don't come around every year.
Sure they do. Reggie Bush, Leon Washington, Chris Johnson, Steve Slaton, Ray Rice, Jerome Harrison, JJ Arrington, Felix Jones, Jamaal Charles, Darren Sproles, Ahmad Bradshaw, Brian Westbrook, Garrett Wolfe, Javon Ringer, Trung Canidate, Justin Forsett ...
Every year, undersized scat-backs and return specialists are out there. Occasionally, one proves to be able to handle a full-time load, like Westbrook, Rice or Johnson. Sometimes they prove to be good 3rd down backs, like Bush and Washington. And some just go il busto, like Arrington and Canidate.
