    JETS
    1. Eric Smith
    2. Jerricho Cotchery
    3. Leon Washington
    4. P-Rams vs. Kellen
    5. Tui Alailefaleula

    Redskins
    1. Jesse Lumsden (might be the odd man out with their depth at RB, and is a guy we seriously need to look at...6'2, 230lb and he is faster than Blaylock...runs a 4.41)
    2. Mike Espy...another guy who is fighting against their depth at WR but has been so good he can't be let go...good hands, he is a 3rd down playmaker.
    3. Reed Doughty...5th round pick, currently sitting at 3rd string on their depth chart. He is a real gamer but might be left out of the mix because they have the luxury of a strong roster already. A guy we should take a serious look at tomorrow because he very likely will be available at the end of training camp.

    It'll be very interesting to see if Cotch is starting and if so how he does in that spot. If Coleman plays, we'll have to see how he looks coming off the injury. The RBs of course as well.

    The most important situation to watch will be the running game.Unless someone is brought in.This is it.

    The RB situation will be scrutinized all year. I'm sure that every team's training camp is being scouted and when the first waive of cuts come there will be alot of Front Office action.

    I definitely do not want to forfeit one of our picks next year (especially the extra 2nd rdr) for some middle of the road vet, who has underperformed elsewhere. Some on this board are treating the two 2nd round pix as extra pocket change that we should spend freely. Those 2nd round picks will be used to build this franchise for many years ahead. We got Ramsey for a 6th, I think we should be able to get a good RB for no more that a 4th.

    We are in great shape for next year's draft - I wouldn't mess with it.

    Thank God Isaiah Thomas isn't our GM?

    Good list of Jets to watch. I'd add WR/RB Brad Smith to this list as well.

    Lets give our kids a chance- this year- to show what they have! If necessary we can draft a RB high next year! To squander picks is wrong. We are NOT gpoing to a SB this year. Lets develop the team correctly!

    Lumsden, a Canadian white guy, is an interesting talent. He has speed and good instincts as a runner, but he has a straight-up running style that makes me think that his 230 pounds won't hit with power.

    The skins have depth only at the WR position. David Patten could be the one losing a roster spot.

    Steven Jackson has a very straight-up style as well though and he has pretty good power for a tall guy.
