| Jamal Lewis is not quite as balanced as Corey Dillon, but his combination of speed and his ability to break tackles more than makes up for his weaknesses in other areas, namely that he lacks agility and has a propensity for fumbling at imes. |

| Corey Dillon is the total package at HB. What he lacks in speed, he makes up for with his agility, his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield, and the fact that he seldom fumbles. Corey Dillon will easily fit into, and enhance, any offensive system. |
| OVR- 89 |
| Steven Davis is a bruising HB who breaks tackles better than anyone else in this draft. He will be hampered by his lack of spreed, however, and will be most effective if paired with a quicker change-of-pace back to keep the defense honest. His pass-catching abilities are average at best. |
| Duce Staley is another complete back in the sense that he has enough speed for a big gain, he can easily catch a screen or a run a route downfield, and he secures the ball well. His only real weakness is a lack of top speed. |
| OVR- 82 |

| DeShaun Foster is a perfect complement to a slower, bruising back. He has great speed and good hands, but his all-too-frequent fumbles may prevent him from securing a spot as an every-down back. |

| As long as there are quick, darting runners, there will be a market for punishing backs like Jerome Bettis. He lacks breakaway speed, but his style is to pick up one bruising yard at a time and he is a tackle-breaking machine. When it's 1st and goal on the 3 yd line, who would you rather hand the ball to than "The Bus"? |

| Kevin Faulk is a solid HB who often goes unnoticed buried behind the stalwart Corey Dillon on the depth chart. He is not the strongest back, but his speed, his ability to catch the ball, and the fact that he rarely fumbles will make him a steal for some lucky owner in the last 2 rounds. |
| This FB turned HB is a solid power back who does a little bit of everything. While he doesn't really excel in any area, he has great vision and strength, his superior pass blocking make him an excellent 3rd down back, and generally he can be counted on to consistently pick up tough yards in traffic. |

| Not only is Dan Kreider the best run-b;ocker of the FBs available, he has excellent speed for a FB and he catches the ball well out of the backfield. His abilities put the final touches on any offense that uses a FB. |
| 5th Round |
| Alan Ricard is a run-blocking force to be reckoned with in his own right, and if Kreider is gone, he is not much of a step down. A solid, complete FB, he is a must for an offense that utilizes a power running game. |
| 5th Round |
| If Alan Ricard is a slight step down from Dan Kreider, then Brad Hoover is an equally slight step down from Alan Ricard. His only real deficiency is his pass blocking, which is still more than adequate. It is unlikely that anyone will draft him in a 5 round draft, however. |

| OVR- 73 |
| Patrick Pass is more of a finesse FB than a power run-blocker. His hands are average, but his speed and agility make him a tough matchup in passing situations and he can consistently get open when matched up against a LB. His pass blocking is good enough that he is not a liability if the QB decides to throw elsewhere. |
