RB is not a blue chip position. ESPECIALLY when you already have Charles and Jones. In case you missed it, we have the #1 running attack in the NFL and we have a top 10 rush defense WITHOUT TYSON JACKSON and CJ SPILLER. |

I completely disagree about 3-4 DE not being foundation.
The 3-4 DE has to be one of the most versatile players on the defense, with the exception perhaps only of the OLB, who has to be a passrusher but also display adequate coverage skills. The 3-4 DE is someone who must be stout enough at the point of attack to be able to hold up blockers like a DT, but be able to get decent, consistent penetration on passing downs. Get a DE that's too one-sided, and you end up either a player you can run straight at because he's too much of a passrusher (Gilberry) or a player you can rotate your pocket towards because he puts no pressure on your QB (Shaun Smith). Smith and Gilberry are fine players in certain situations. But Dorsey is the only player on this team that can serve as a true 3-4 DE. So we have to play mix-and-match the rest of the time because TJ isn't getting there fast enough. Take our defense, but replace the other DE position with Campbell or Dockett from Arizona and we're a true Top 10 defense. |

He can run routes extremely well, and has amazing hands. And, might I add, he's not 170 pounds. |

Yes, at 36, he made more sense than Spiller at 5.
Berry is a potential generational player. We didn't just take "a safety" at 5. And he coincidentally happened to fit a need position in the starting lineup. Which means for once we actually had the stars align and took the best player available at a position of need, and a guy that 99% of the football world expects to be an all pro for years. |

I still would have taken him over Spiller. I'm just arguing that Spiller was worth the #5 overall. |

The same way Spiller would be for us. slot movement into and out of the backfield matchups space big plays He has already shown that he has game breaking ability as a returner as well, same as Spiller. |
