4th Round We NEED to take..

[irvin88]

Cedric Houston. Bare with me here-the guy split carries with Riggs last year and had over 1,000 yards and 5.6 per carry. He is 5'10, 225 lbs. Explodes to the hole with good moves. I like Sproles and Fason, but we gotta take Cedric.

My initial thought was Fason< I don't know Houston.

[CanadaBoys]

I like Sproles

[irvin88]

This kid is great. I'm tellin' you guys.

Donte Nicholson, OK
pretty good potential

As far as RB...
I like-
Ciatrick Fason
Brandon Jacobs
and
Marion Barber

[InmanRoshi]

I have nothing against Houston, but he'll be there in the 5th. There's many running backs rated higher than him still on the board, and a lot of teams either don't need a RB or have already addressed it.

I hope we get Jerome Mathis, but I don't think he gets past Tampa two picks ahead of us.

There are still good RB who will be there at round 5.
What about Considine or Chris Kemoeatu at round 4?

I'm tellin' you guys. Houston may be better than Julius. I aint kidding, or on drugs either.

I like Houston as well. I don't think he'll be a full-time starter, and he does have injury issues, but he's a quality player when healthy. My concern is he always seems to be dinged -- never seriously hurt, but misses a quarter here, a game there.

from cnnsi

Cedric Houston Grade: 3.47
Position: HB
Class: Sr
School: Tennessee
Conference: SEC
Ht., Wt.: 5-11, 225
40 Time: 4.55

BIO: All-Conference selection who.s been the Volunteer.s primary ballcarrier since his sophomore campaign. Posted career numbers of 181/1,005/8 on the ground as a senior, adding 16/180/1 as a pass catcher.

POSITIVES: Athletic ballcarrier with excellent size/speed numbers. Quick footed, cuts back in a small area and makes defenders miss. Runs with authority through the holes, displays a burst, and possesses the speed to get outside of tackle. Squirts through the small openings in the defense, strong in his lower body and keeps his feet off the initial hit or falls forward when tackled. Aggressively puts his shoulders into opponents. Fluid in all aspects. Adequate pass catcher out of the backfield.

NEGATIVES: Not an overly instinctive ballcarrier and not decisive taking handoffs. Not overly elusive carrying the ball. Must be more concerned with ball security.

ANALYSIS: A well-built running back with a large upside, at times Houston looks better then he actually plays. To this point, better athlete than football player, yet his physical skills will get him considered in the middle rounds.

PROJECTION: Mid Fifth Round

[Rack Bauer]

We need to take Sean Considine. There will still be a solid RB available to us in the 5th, but the safeties are disappearing fast.

[Billy Bullocks]

Whatever BP decides at RB is fine with me...after that JJ pick last year, I have alot of faith in him. Wutsup with a WR...is the kid from N. Colorado for real? What about that Juco kid htat everyone was so hyped on, say in round 6? The speedster from Hampton is still on the board, didnt we pick up Zuriel Smith from Hammy?
