how about taking Spiller than trading the second for Brandon Marshall?
These two give us two big time playmakers and make us one of the, if not the, best offense in the league
Move Smiley, Camarillo, Brown for some picks 2-5 and add defensive side & a tight end
One of the first things that ParSporLand did when they got here is get rid of our 3rd round small speed running back Lorenzo Booker. Then they proceeded to draft two big RB's in Parmele & Hilliard.
Honestly, I don't believe that our offense was the major problem in why we lost too many close games. Our defense crumbled in giving up big plays. TE's killed us over the middle of the field and we had way too many receptions over the top. We obviously need better production at Free Safety and an increase in pass rush.
We need a defensive infusion in a big way and we need to incrimentally get more productive in our offense...more big plays over the top and better production from the TE spot over the middle and keep Bess doing his thing. Camarillo should be completely healed and should be targeted more because he just does not drop the ball. We need to be smarter in getting the ball to Ginn in space...ie the deep completion over the top of Revis and two other defenders vs the Jetsies.
I agree we haven't had a great history of top RB's. I mean Csonka was a fullback really. But you gotta give Ricky is due for his 2002 and 2003 season.
And wait till you watch the movie in a couple weeks and you see him preparing for games, watching game videos on his laptop smoking weed and laughing at the same time. It is really some visual! lol And you do wonder if he really applied himself fully, what he could have done!
Ricky was great,but I can't remember that last guy we had that could hit the hole and take 50+ yds to the house like a Chris Johnson. Spiller and Best have that ability. You wouldn't want to use them more than 15-20 rushes, but the 3 back system seems to be more common these days.
