I actually salivate at the idea of Slaton + a bruising running back lined up in the backfield together. I'm not saying bring back the triple option or that we should jump on the wildcat bandwagon, and this negates the keep their legs fresh argument if you do it all the time. I just like all the possibilities that creates when you have two running threats in the back field...especially if they are both capable receivers as well.

I'd be fine, even excited, about a 1st round RB if involved a trade down. I think we still too desperately need some OL depth and a few players on defense to stand pat and take a back. If they want to drop ten spots and get a RB and then have a 2nd, two 3rds, and two 4ths to hammer away at those postions, then great!
