I completely agree with this article.

My biggest personal concern at this time is running back. Duce can fill the void.......but ONLY if he remains healthy. He has been with us for two years. He has had injuries for most of those two years. He is one heckuva back....when he is healthy.

It is the Pittsburgh way to pound, pound, pound the ball in once we get them off-balance, or tired, or both. To stick with our typical plan, which has worked for many seasons, we need the big, pounding, mudder-type back to fill in for short yardage situations and when we just need to eat up the clock.

We can fill the other spots, no matter where we fall in the draft...but we need to move up to get a mudder!
