I still haven't heard an answer to this question. Today I heard a guy talking about the Texans drafting Brown at #46, which I think is a reach. Then he talked about how Andre Brown is this year's Mike Forte of the draft. We may have to use our 3rd round (#77), 4th round (#112), and 5th (#152) round pick to move up to #59 in order to get him.
There are quite a few successful teams with a RB by committee, in which the RBs could be "featured" backs. Brown could be that if he's another Forte and we know what we have in Slaton. My question boils down to, is getting another RB worth giving up the 4th and 5th rounders (assuming the 3rd would be going to a RB anyway). Rashad Jennings might not last to #77, for those who thought he might. Who may we be missing out on at those slots?
4th - David Bruton, Cedric Peeman, Gerald McGrath, CJ Spillman, Roy Miller
5th - AQ Shipley, Johnny Knox, Gregory Toler, Scott McKillop, James Davis
