Obvious O-Line must be addressed especially early draft or free agency, so take care of that first.
Not too much buzz yet on Gerhart, looks like a good bruiser type with size & speed (not necessarily lateral quickness to hit outside, but fast enough when he gets going). He was just plain productive in College and I can see how it could carry over in the pros.
If Gore is injured, there is NO Running threat at all. Maybe Gerhart in 2nd round if he's available (or trade down a 1st & package deal to pick an early 2nd) as the Bruiser back, receiving threat, back-up/relief for Gore and could see him get that call for short yardage on 3rd down.
Maybe he goes in the 1st rnd anyways...hmmm. I don't see Gore lasting an entire season healthy anymore and Coffee just doesn't cut it as the backup.
What do you think?
