I swear. If this team drops another high value pick on a RB I am going to take a dump in a brown paper bag and air mail it to Baalke's address. Because that's essentially what he's doing to the fanbase with these decisions. If you want a RB? Fine. Take a chance with a late 6th round or 7th round pick if you're concerned with adding a guy that bad. 

You have a superstar in Etienne already. You extended Hasty in the offseason for two years. You signed Johnson in the offseason. The previous year or year before that, he forked over two draft picks to move up to get Conner, a guy that's no longer on the team, and then you dropped a premium pick on a position that we already had a premium player at with Bigsby. 

That's too much draft capital tied into one position group on a team that's pass happy to begin with and also has one of the weakest performing lineman groups over the last two years in blocking in general, but, in run blocking? It's particularly weak. 

If you fix the line you will get more out of Etienne, Hasty, Johnson and Bigsby.
