He should be available in, say, the third round. He's not real big, but he's powerful and would be a good 3rd down back and could spot LT.
Absolutely. They'll need that classic powerback. Sproles is a great scat-back and returner, but lacks the proper build/style for every down or even third down conversions. He's a situational back. SD is going to be very dangerous with another year under Turner's complex offense, wait and see.

While in Dallas, a talented team is going to go to waste. Garrett is too pass happy and coasting off of offensive talent. Defense is going thru mulitple coach changes AGAIN. Campo on Secondary and Capers on linebackers combined with Phillips makes three head coaching guys with great 3/4 variations. Defense could be great, but offense is handcuffed with lack of run plays.
