Yep. No idea what the front office saw in this guy.
He might be the least explosive RB1 in the entire league. |

I understand the thought behind the pick
He was a productive RB in college in the SEC and typically that translates to the NFL Drafting him at the end of the first round lets you control his rights on a rookie deal for 5 years and if he is a hit you could tag him and control for 6 years. What's the lifespan on an NFL RB? I get why they did it. So far I haven't seen the productivity at the NFL level to justify the pick. I realize a lot of people might be down on the guy after last nights fumble which happened to cost us the game. I've been a bit down on him for a long time before that. Anyone watching can tell he is no K Hunt or D Williams. Not sure if he can overcome some of the things pointed out about vision etc |

Before our pick, Vurt Wecher called PMII and asked him, “Who do you want us to pick?”
QB1 says, “That guy from LSU.” Rech veavher says, “Clyde?” PMII says, “says yepper.” Pat probably just threw some college name out there, Drett took it and ran with it. Now where we have the 796th best RB in the AFC West. |

Granted we have not had many 1st round picks, but this is not a great draft haul in the early rounds. |

He's not a 3 down back in this league.

Not a single trait has translated. Vision. Lateral agility. Ball security. Receiving threat both in the backfield and slot. Running out of shotgun. Not a single one. It's so ****ing bizzare.

Booting Hunt has had ramifications far worse than I thought it would. Probably cost us the Super Bowl that year and now we've wasted a 1st round pick trying to fill the void left.

Having Hunt on the team would have made Ford line up onside?

This. I never understood why some of you liked him from the beginning! He's a smurf with no vision! There were much better RB's available at that pick! Just cut his ass loose and move on! So I don't get frustrated watching Reid try to make him appear even average!
