Not much of a sleeper in NFL circles. From what I understand, he's very much on every teams radar.

I'm not a big Javon Ringer fan or I should say I'm not big Javon Ringer fan when it comes to projecting him to the NFL. I think he's this year's version of Mike Hart.

I agree that a change of pace back would be nice...a home run threat. Slaton sure would have been nice :(

Jackson and Grant are too similar IMHO to consider either change of pace. They are both good backs, but neither are burners.

Kind of a darkhorse a little.. but what about Pat White?

Can you imagine the wrinkles in the playbook that one could put in for a player like that?

White can make plays in space for damn sure... throwing threat too.. damn.

In this coming year's draft, should we draft a quick, elusive back? Maybe something along the lines of a Chris Johnson?

Grant is our power runner, now we need another chance of pace back. Imagine how lethal our backfield would be.

Just think about it.

What do you think?

Brandon Jackson isn't really a huge threat in open space like a Chris Johnson or Steve Slaton.

thats false, bjax may only run a 4.41 , but hes very quick and elusive, and can still run inside, a good 40 time is not necessary is u can reach your top speed fast and make quick cuts like bjax does

I think Rice proved that to us.

He still isn't a Chris Johnson, MJD or any back like that though, and especially a back like that would complement Ryan Grant very well.
