McFadden could be key to first round

A.P. is a little more physical than me, but I feel I have the home run capability. Darren McFadden could be the next Adrian Peterson, which nobody in the NFL can scoff at. via Arlington Heights Daily Herald

i highly doubt it... not in his first year at least. he is a great athlete but he has never had to carry the load. he will be a lot like Julius Jones was in Dallas where he was very talented when he had someone like marion barber to spell him. only McFadden is a little more athletic.

Has anybody thought about Kevin Smith out of Central Florida; he led the NCAA in rushing last year and I've yet to hear his name in anybody's consideration. I think he'll be a steel

Julius Jones cant carry Mcfaddens jock! Kevin Smith will be "steal" for someone maybe the "Steelers"! Raiders or maybe the Cowboys will get Mcfadden somehow.

McFadden went to the Raiders...The Cowboys got his collegiate counterpart Felix Jones...

julius jones was highly thought of. i wonder if that is why dallas did not go with the trade with oakland? cause dallas wanted a(rb) they probably hoped that jones would later fall in their hands!

sorry, felix jones!

excuse me i didn't specify. i didn't mean he would only be as good as julius jones was. i just meant he will be that type of player. another player who i think will be a steal late in the draft is mike hart.
