The Boy's Blog: How Much Is a Running Back Worth?

[Doomsday101]

How many stadiums now days does Bad weather even come into play. A lot of the new stadiums are domes or retractable roofs so they can get the fans in the seat and comfortable so they spend the big dollars.

Thats why places like Greenbay will never host the SuperBowl or Heinz field in Pittsburg

But you may very well play in those places to get to the SB. Right now I would love to have an Emmitt Smith in the backfield with Tony Romo

I hope this isn't a thread promoting the Cowboys using both 1st round picks to go up & get McFadden. I personally would love to have him. He's a beast. However, since we already have 2 starters who are giving us a solid running game, and we have a rotation system, it would be a great waste of the picks.
I would like to see us take a RB in the 3rd-4th rd. area, maybe later. We should take a big, fast WR the first day, though.

My thoughts are to trade RW for a high 2nd rounder, use it to move up in the 1st, and take Malcolm Jenkins, CB & Kenny Phillips, S. We could then take a NT/DL in the 2nd, and a WR in the 3rd. We have got to get the secondary in better shape by installing faster, smarter players. Another pass rusher is always a good pick as well. The NT is key though. Fergi will be 34 next yr., and the jury's still out on T. Johnson. He has to go the whole year without as much as a sneeze of trouble.

I would not trade both 1's to get McFadden but I would also not be opposed to grabbing 1 of the other top prospects at RB in the 1st rd. I don’t know how the draft will shake out at this point and really not concerned about the draft right now
