    Ray Rice4900yards and 49td's in 3 years. 20+ TD's in consecutive seasons

    Steve Slaton 3900yards and 50td's in 3 years avg. 17td's a season

    I've seen both of these guys mentioned as prospects we might take a look at in mid-rounds
    both had pretty decent production in college, but for some reason they do not project as high picks

    anyone liking either of these cats

    then there's this guy : Kevin Smith
    rushed for 2567 yards and 29 TD's last year :shocked:
    fell 61 frikin yards short of breaking Barry Sanders rushing record

    I say let's give one of these cats a try instead of going after CJ or Felix

    I'd take Smith or Rice with a 2nd or 3rd

    Probably wouldn't draft Slaton until 4th or 5th

    Slaton dropped off when he should have exploded as a top heisman candidate. That's why many are skeptical.

    Smith or Rice could be legit feature backs down the road and Slaton isn't ever going to be that good IMO. Rice could end up being one of the best backs in this draft.
