And The Bucs Are 3 And 1!!!!!

[Matt McGuire]

Wow, we will run away with this divison even with Caddy out. The Saints, Panthers, and Falcons are just horrible.

[Walter]

Watch out for those Falcons!!!

Just kidding, the Bucs are awesome. Jeff Garcia is the man.

[Matt McGuire]

Caddy and Petitgout are done for the year.

Sucks. Oh well, I still think we can win 10 games if our defense keeps playing like the best in the NFL.

[Walter]

Ernest Graham has been looking good though. Think he can fill in?

[Matt McGuire]

I think Michael Pittman has a little bit of potential and Graham is okay.

Caddy will be missed.

Look for the Bucs Walter to address the RB position in rounds 3-5 next year with Caddy's ACL injury.

[Walter]

Yeah, and I guess this takes them out of Steve Slaton consideration, although you disagreed with that regardless.

[Matt McGuire]

Yeah, I see Slaton is a late round 1-round 2 prospect.

Here are my top 8 runningbacks for the 2008 NFL Draft Class:

1. Darren McFadden
2. Jonathan Stewart
3. Allen Patrick
4. Tashard Choice
5. Steve Slaton
6. Mike Hart
7. Chris Johnson
8. Rafael Little

I don't see James Davis, Ray Rice, or Felix Jones committing.

[Walter]

Patrick is only 190 pounds. No starting RB in the NFL, except Warrick Dunn, is less than 200. I don't see Patrick going Round 1.

[Walter]

Slaton should be higher.

[Matt McGuire]

I disagree. Slaton is somewhat a product of WVU's spread offense and Pat White makes him look better than what he actually is.

[Matt McGuire]

Patrick is 6'1 191.

Slaton is 5'10 195.

Patrick has a bigger frame to add weight on and he shows better running instincts than Slaton.

[Craig Smith]

Word is, per KFFL Cadilliac's injury is career threatening. So that may jump RB up to top rpiority come draft time.

Looksl ike its time to drop him from my fantasy football team...

[Walter]

Yeah, but Slaton wouldn't be a primary back; he'd be a Reggie Bush-like weapon.

[Matt McGuire]

Yeah, but Slaton wouldn't be a primary back; he'd be a Reggie Bush-like weapon.

Exactly. You don't draft a 3rd down RB in round 1 unless they are on an elite level such as a Reggie Bush.

[Adam Mac]

Hart has proven that he can run taking a team on his back. I also like Slaton, those are my #2 and #3
