We have desperate need for a short yardage back. Slaton is plenty tough to run inside on 1st and 10 but it is unfair to ask him to carry it on 3rd and 1. This should be a priority in the offseason.
I agree totally, but the team doesn't. They have made it clear that their system demands a one-cut back, and I fully expect them to draft a Slaton clone in the 4th or 5th. If they draft or acquire a short yardage back I will be astonished.
