Welp. Looks like we need a RB.

If I need Rodney Anderson to take 250 touches, I'm not getting anywhere near him. But if I can draft Anderson with a 3rd day pick and give him 10 touches/gm to try to keep him healthy....hoooooboy, I'd be hard pressed to ignore the talent at that point.

Rodney Anderson may be the most talented RB in the draft but that health history is just horrifying. If you can take him late and not NEED him...that may just be the perfect situation for him.

I agree about Anderson, he's an absolute stud when healthy and could really flourish in this offense imo. Gurley got an acl before he was drafted but has been ok as a pro so hopefully the kid can have a better injury record once he turns pro. Not sure he'll last beyond the third round so I'd be inclined to take him with our third tbh.

This... plus this kid Can catch the ball! Can you imagine him shredding the open field with defenses covering our deep threats? Short passes that will be tds...

The choice is ****ing obvious.

Dexter Williams from Notre Dame.


Damien Williams
Dexter Williams

and then we'll get that FA TE, what's his name...Zach Williams? we'll line them all up and the defense will just fall down at the snap in confusion.

I think T.J. Yeldon would be a really nice #2 RB in this offense as a FA guy. Good receiver and solid runner. Not sure if he'll be looking to be a #1.

Also really like Tevin Coleman but he'll be looking to be a #1 for sure I'd think.

I like Yeldon. I don't think he's ever going to be a star, but at RB, health and just being good are perfectly fine.

I think they really need someone that can catch it and be dynamic that way.

I was pretty impressed with Wes hills in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl last weekend. He was blasting through the holes and looked like he has good vision and decent speed. The announcers were comparing him to Robert Smith.

Apparently he got a Senior Bowl invite so it will be interesting to see if he keeps it up against better competition.

Have read some interesting things about him.

I want a guy with some explosiveness in “phone booth” situations, who has quick acceleration. Not sure if that’s Hills.

I’d love to get David Montgomery, but he will likely be gone by the time we draft a RB. First few picks at least should go to defense.

The year he busted into the college scene his HC said he was a more talented version of Kareem Hunt, who he also coached in college. Happened to be Kareem’s rookie year when he also busted out.

Devin Singletary.

Would take him.

Im a fan of Singletary, very Shady-esque and Andy has shown that he likes the scatback types that can be productive. I’m just hesitant to think he’d be the pick with Williams essentially already solidified himself in that role.

[ChiefAshhole1056]

Darrel Henderson our of Memphis has intrigued me. Short but not small with strong explosion and has shown a very solid vision/balance combo that this team misses from Hunt. Reminds me a lot of Devonta Freeman and I think he’d fit well with what we have with Williams.

If you want to get a head start on a new Chiefs RB, look for a small school kid, DV. II maybe, that is a workhorse, decent receiver, lots of yards after contact.

He'll be a 6th or 7th rounder, or an UDFA.

Everything else is not happening. We have holes to fill, holes in which we have NO starter, we're not spending serious capital on a spot where we have 4 guys we could line up.

But you didn't mention that he reminds you of Kareem Hunt.

I thought this thread was just about naming running backs and saying they have a little Kareem Hunt about them.
