[SHOWTIME15]

Which RBs do you guys think are still available for the pats? I think we need a power running back. Jonathan Dwyer? - but there are concerns that he is a system running back. who else?

Jonatahn Stewart plays for the Panthers. Dwyer? Yeah, we could get good value in him. He was projected in the first round a few months ago. I just posted in a couple other threads about Joe McKnight. He reminds me of a young Kevin Faulk although a little bit taller. He has speed and agility.

Starks from Buffalo, they supposedly had in.

Anthony Dixon from Ms. State is a good bruising RB kind of like antowain smith (when he was good).

 

[MaineMan]

Lonyae Miller and Andre Dixon looked pretty good at the shrine. Dorin ****erson might be give some consideration as a 3rd-down back.

I would go with Dwyer or James Starks for 1st and 2nd down-type backs and Chris Brown for a 3rd down back.

At opposite ends of the spectrum, Anthony Dixon and Deji Karim. One bruiser, one skitterer.

What I love about Karim is how compactly he runs. He hits full speed (which is mighty fast indeed) in a low, tucked-in stance that makes him tough to tackle. He's useful catching the ball, too.

Joe McKnight and LeGarret Blount

Deji's my late-round binky. I think Lonyae Miller might be a steal late, too, but I think they'll go after Starks, who missed his senior season but had over 1,300 rushing and 52 catches his junior year: University at Buffalo - Football - Go Bulls!

Conte Cuttino.

 

[patsinthesnow]

Johnathan Dwyer is the best available by far. NFL.com said he's a boom or bust type.

Right after football ended, I remember him being 2nd or 3rd best back in the early 2nd round.

 

[Uncle Rico]

National Football Post has Dwyer as third ranked RB, behind Best and Spiller.

"Dwyer isn't a burner once he gets into the open field, but he has enough speed to consistently reach the corner and create big plays once he gets into space."

A pounder who can get some 10-15 yarders. I'll take that.

 

[dryheat44]

Conte Cuttino.

I can't believe he's still available!

 

[mrscruff]

Blount, Deji karim and Joique Bell but I would not draft any before the 6th and preferably the 7th round

What do you think of LaMarcus Coker?
