Not sure if I would have taken DMC or CJ at #6 myself, I think you did the right thing but you must be very alert to whats going on in NFL backfields this year. There is always somebody that steps out from no where. Ive once lost a playoff game to a performance by Samkon Gado. Good luck sir.

You can only find a handcuff rb there this year. I would go Green out of these rb's... Morris could be the better bet, but who knows what goes on in Washington. GL!!!

History tells you do not do it. Since Terrel Davis there have been as many RB's to have monster games under Shanny as QBs recycled by the Dolphins since Marino. Mike Anderson Olandis Gary Tatum Bell Rueben Droughns Tatum Bell (Took job from Mike Bell who was named starter) Last year it was craziness. Hair pulling trying to figure it who its going to be. Im personally a fan of Morris given the connection, but Im just warning you to stay away from that situation.

Also looking at R Turbin in Seattle with possible Marshawn suspension. Look for other injury situations. With Matthews banged up who is going to get all the carries in SD? Go hit the waivers

WR is deep this year while RB is very thin. Another RB instead of Smith would have been more beneficial. I'd say try and trade Smith for RB depth

I dont think brady was a bad choice, I just would not have gone 3 WR's in a row. You can usually get some stats from 3rd and 4th WR's. It is really tough to expect stats from backup RB's at least team changing stats.
