God I wish he was on this team with Mahomes. Could you imagine the offense?

De'Andre Swift
Travis Etienne
Johnathan Taylor

Good RB year.

Why would we do that when we have a bunch of replacements that fumble all the time at crucial junctures in the game.

But Taylor might make it to us in the 2nd. Dobbins and Akers are interesting guys but tough reads for opposite reasons. OSU is just rolling over teams so it's hard to say if Dobbins is as good as his results. Skillset wise, Dobbins seems perfect but he just may not be as good as he seems to be.

Akers, OTOH, is playing for a trash FSU team and maybe that pushes his stock down some. I think the kid's an NFL talent with 3-down ability but it's hard to get a great feel for him. That's probably a guy I'd keep an eye on.

You're right though - seems like a TON of RBs w/ 2nd round sort of grades and that could push some down into the 3rd. Someone like maybe Ke'Shawn Vaughn? I think you'd have to jump in a hurry if he's there in the 3rd and shows more wiggle on tape than I typically think of him having. You have to hope someone jumps earlier on someone like Zack Moss who may not have the kind of agility you want to see in this offense and frees up someone to slide down a bit. Hubbard could be a slide candidate as well.

I'd be shocked if we don't have 2 new RBs next year, 1 of whom we take on the 2nd day. This shit can't stand next year.

Keep drafting running backs is my opinion. No need to bring in an expensive Bell when you could just find one in the draft which happens anywhere.

And maybe, I don't know, see what we have in Darwin.

That's a bit different then sitting down with the owner GM and coach and lying about the fact that you did indeed put hands and foot on some chick.

Also, CP said Williams would do just fine, and we would not miss Hunt.
