What do we focus on mostly in the 1st round?Personally, I think we should go after a running back right away. Washington is 'cute' and all, but he is never going to be a premiere back.

Shaun Eliis is an OK player, but he is nothing special.You guys could go for a TE as well.

A stud WR would be nice, but it shouldn't be listed. Neither should S.
Id bump Cornerback way up on the needs list. Barrett is overpaid and should be cut and replaced with a more cost effective option. Miller, Coleman, and Poteat all are not starter worthy IMO. I think it's one of our biggest needs up there with DE/NT. I also think RB is overrated as a need.....Houston and Washington are both averaging over 4 yard an attempt and if it wasn't for constantly giving Blaylock and Barlow a chance to prove they're not worthless we would be ranked much higher then 19th in our Rushing Offense. Could we use another RB? Sure....but it's far from our biggest need IMO.1. DE/NT2. CB3. RT4. RB5. RG6. FB7. Punt Returner
1. NT2. CB3. RT4. RG5. FBThose are what I think. The right side of the O-line is very much needed, but I think you go defense first. Work on the line in later rounds, but take Alan Branch to put at NT if he is available.
