I think that New Orleans would be making a mistake letting Ivory get away. He has looked good in the limited number of snaps he received.

They will look at RB from the third down with the assumption if someone falls unexpectedly they will look earlier.

Dunbar is penciled in as the change of pace but they should be looking for a RB/returner/real quickes-fast guy that could replace him.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

I'm fine with Dunbar as the 3rd or 4th back, I think he has something to offer. We do need a back picked in round 3 or 4 though, preferably round 4. Lets get some big uglies 1-3.

After DL, RB is the strength of the teens in the Draft, or BPA.

The problem is that they may have 3 better backs on their roster

It should be, yeah. But it's effective.

A 3rd or 4th round pick on a rotational back when Demarco Murray has a recent injury history of missing a few games each year is peanuts if you get the right player. Who wouldn't want another Murray in the rotation if one's available in the third again?
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

After running a 4.7+ 40, Taylor may be there in Round 4. Bell may be a 3rd now since he showed some good speed (unofficial 4.5 40) at 230 lbs.

if we sign Ivory, draft McCalebb late, use him as our speed back.
