But I'm starting to feel like Pachecco won't demand much on the open market and can be kept for small contract. He's not an all around back, this might be the first year he's a 3rd down back, he's more of a speed guy that fits really well into our offense. If that's the case, I think they'd bring him back.

I pounded the table for Devon Achane, but I think Veach has made it clear that after how CEH panned out, he wouldn't be investing a high draft pick in a RB again. When we got CEH, that was the thought process... "Hey our roster is pretty good, we just won a SB, why tf not". And it ended up being a total waste. There were so many other directions that we could have gone that would have been so much more beneficial.

The difference between a good and a great RB isn't that much and it's not worth dumping a high draft pick, plus we are never going to PAY a RB, so even if we were to draft a freaking Barry Sanders, they'd walk after 3 or 4 years anyway. I just see the RB position as having a low ROI compared to pretty much any other position right now. Hell, even if we had Barry Sanders, I don't see teams loading the box to stop the run against us, considering who we have behind the center and calling plays.
