To early to say for sure, but there are still several players available I like at the position. In particular:
Peyton Barber of Bama (1st and second down)
Brandon Burks of Troy (3rd down type)
Jhurell Pressley of New Mexico (3rd down type)

What does the list of UFA look like at RB? Maybe they thought the difference was negligible enough to take a swing at a couple other positions?

But there's no guarantee you'll get them, so maybe they are content to live with what they have.

Looks like Saguaro star and Arizona State alum DJ Foster will sign a UDFA contract with the New England Patriots. (via @TheCheapSeatsTV)

DJ Foster is a RB and WR. Played both. Thought Patriots would look at him in the late rounds.

Shaquille is a name we're going to see a ton for the next decade or so and then it'll disappear into the aether, save for those lucky Shaq Jrs. I guess by then the Kobe generation will be ready to take over.

In the spirit of "put him in position to do what he does well and kinda screw the other stuff," Jonathan Jones seems like an excellent value possibility as a nickel corner.

Edit because punctuation matters, dammit!

My notes from one game of Cre'Von LeBlanc: "Defends shallow cross well. Not impressed with his quicks or deep speed. Press at LOS lacking. Some decent ball skills. Willing run support player, patient, can tackle, not a big hitter."

I didn't do Jones.
