4.11 New Orleans Chocolate City - RB Theo Riddick

In the real world: The Detroit Lions drafted Riddick in Round 6 out of Notre Dame. Riddick, a converted wide receiver, does a lot of the things Reggie Bush does--he can line up as a wide receiver (duh), or be used as a receiver out of the backfield, or return punts. But he isn't too fast (4.68 40) and is more of a straight line runner (not much lateral agility).

In the TUFF world: Well, look at it this way: New Orleans already had another Lions backup running back, Joique Bell, and you have to figure that whichever one of these two backs wins the Lions' #3 RB job will only have two backs in front of him: Bush, who has had his share of injuries; and Mikel Leshoure, who has yet to prove himself. But I passed him up earlier in Round 4 because this Detroit News article mentioned that not only was he behind Bush, Leshoure and Bell, but also Steven Miller (an undrafted free agent from Appalachian State) on the depth chart at RB. Rotoworld went so far as to say he might wind up on the practice squad. I'm not saying it's a bad pick for New Orleans, just that it would have been a lousy pick for my Detroit Vipers.
