If we really wanna face the facts, Gore just doesn't have the speed anymore to not only hit some of the holes, but to break the big runs. If there is a cutback lane to the outside, you can see that he can't take full advantage of it.
Also, I'm not sold on Mack as Gore's replacement either. We've got to get another dynamic dual threat RB.

I am not disagreeing with this in the least. I want Andrew Luck to have his Edge.....
But, I want the order to be O-Line first, RB second. Taking a RB with one of our top three choices in the 2018 draft reverses that order.
That is all I am trying to say. Fix the O-Line; find an Edge. That is the order Ballard should take.
