Why would we spend a draft pick on a 300 lb RB. He came into this year knowing he had to work hard and make an impression on NFL scouts as a FB in order to get drafted. And then with all the motivation in the world, he actually went backwards and gained weight and had his worst season. You don't draft guys with no work ethic and limited upside.

If you want to sign him as a UFA I say fine, since their is no risk. But why throw away a pick on a guy who couldn't even be committed in college.
