I never said I didn't want a change of pace back (Sporles), but I think that guy was talking about selecting a RB with the 13th pick, (and I'm still trying to figure out if he was serious or not). I was just saying we should look for a guy like that in the late rounds (4-7) but not at 13.
It was an ironic statement from a guy who always promotes building the front lines first.

Pretty sure he was kidding...

Sorry for causing trouble, but on a positive note it is nice that more and more people understand when I'm kidding. I guess though it was my fault for throwing in running back since at the very least it's on the verge of becoming a need, but SCSkins fan is right I do promote building up front first.
But Eknox to answer your question, if I was going to take a running back for us at 13 well then I'd like to the team take a chance with Knowshon. And for the record I'm not a UGA fan, or a GT fan for that matter. However there's a lot of big uglies that I'd like to see us take before we go after a running back. In fact I would rather wait until we have a young O-Line before we even think about taking a Running Back early.

PennSkinsFan. Do you know which mock was the closest to getting it right last year?
The ones that we have rated A+ are not only pretty good mocks as far as accuracy, but are also draft sites that have either been around more than 5 years or are associated with professional nfl scouting firms. One of my favorites of course is Draft Countdown, Scott Wright.
We may actually do our own grading this year. Might need to recruit some Warpath members to help out.

Todd Mcshay has us picking up Brian Orakpo with the 13th pick.
I'm 50/50 on it. Still want Maualuga.

I like the RB at 13 we need a change of pace Betts is not Betts anymore, and that's all we have behind CP I like Marcus Mason whatever happened to him I wonder.../Which RB would you take at that spot ?
This is professional football, not fantasy football.
Draft Maualuga, he could be the next Ray Lewis or at worst the next Lofa Tatupa.

I've heard some pretty reliable sources suspect that Andre Smith is actually going to fall all the way down to us...which would just be ridiculous

I would love it! Learning under Samuels, another Tide alumni.
