  • "He's got thighs and butt for days!!" Simms narrows a great RB draft class to his Top 5, and Paul wonders how early is too early to draft an RB. #NBCSports #ChrisSimmsUnbuttoned #NFLDraft
    (1:20) 2022 Draft RBs: "I don't think I've seen this much depth from an RB class."
    (11:15) 2021 RB lookback: Chris self-scouts himself on how he went wrong with Javian Hawkins & Javonte Williams.
    (16:45) RB #5 Ty Davis-Price (LSU): "He is an NFL starting running back"
    (24:00) RB #4 James Cook (Georgia): How does he compare to brother Dalvin?
    (33:00) RB #3 Dameon Pierce (Florida): "Kareem Hunt. They're a carbon copy of each other."
    (41:45) RB #2 Breece Hall (Iowa State): "This a 3-down, all-around running back."
    (52:00) RB #1 Kenneth Walker III (Michigan St): "His body is a different rocked-up than the rest of the group."
    (1:00:45) Honorable mentions: In a deep class, Chris gives love to Pierre Strong Jr, Brian Robinson, Kyren Williams, Isaiah Spiller, and more.
    (1:10:20) Draft Props: Which RB is the best bet to be drafted first? And the homies weigh in on if they would want their team to draft a Round 1 RB.

      ? stupid take tbh. adrian peterson proved worthy. barry sanders too. zeke. emmitt. marshall faulk. i could go on and on. sometimes to get a blue chip, you gotta take a swing early. does this take apply to qb's too? because they bust even FAR more often. besides, all u can control is those first 4-5 years of the contract, and gurley was a beast those first 4 years on the rams. as a seahawk fan, i clearly remember him being a problem, post-LOB.

      @jimralston4789 2 года назад

      @@shade8174 Why are you comparing an RB to the most valuable position in football? That doesn't sell the point at all.
      What is the difference if an RB is picked at 33 vs 32 for all of you militant anti-RBers? The fifth year option is hardly used anymore so don't go there. So one spot on the draft board is enough to placate you guys? A fantastic RB prospect like Jonathan Taylor is fine if chosen at at 33, but its a goddamn sin to draft him at 31? His real value to the Colts is first round value even if they don't decide to give him a second contract.
      Very good RBs can be difference makers in some schemes. Marshawn, Derrick Henry, Jonathan Taylor, LeVeon, AP, etc. They can provide more value to their teams than some a guard or safety or DT picked late in the first round, but its become dogma with you guys.

      @@dodu8281 I could see that, but those guys are good it’s just neither of them are rb1s. Spiller is like a shifter Jordan Howard and white doesn’t have elite speed and his lack of physicality limits him to a gadget or scat back. Again, good backs just not top 5. To be fair I don’t think anyone in this class better than last year’s class of 1 Najee and 2,3 unc bros

    I agree on your top two but flip the order. You never even mentioned Hall's sick spin moves. Also, give me the guy who reminds me of Jonathan Taylor vs the Mixon type. Lastly, Hall is bigger and catches the ball like Larry Centers. As for the other 3, I like Cook but his teammate should be in there over the other two. If Hall and Walker are gone in before pick 50, give me Zamir "Zeus" White in Rd 3.
    PS- Breece Hall can actually play on pass pro downs.

    Apparently he didn't watch much Notre Dame film. Williams was the only RB in college last year with than 1000 yards rushing and 300 yards receiving.
    Oh and he did this behind a poor offensive line in the first half of the year. Put in the tape of his 98 yard TD run.

    @mastajace2338 2 года назад +4

    Love the pod. The more I watch of this running backs class the less I understand Chris' pick at no. 5. Davis-Price has a solid frame to be a NFL power runner but everything about his game is incosistent. I don't see great speed, movement, vision, 3 down ability. Honestly I'm shocked by this pick. Everyone else in the top 5 I get, they all belong there or even in the conversation. But there are lots of players in this RBs class I like a lot better than Davis-Price. He's in the 20s of RBs on my list and I wouldn't be shocked if he wasn't drafted at all.

    Keaontay Ingram looks good to me. He played for USC and his last three years for the University of Texas. He’s very close athletically to Kareem Hunt to me. He’s got speed and power, change of direction, and can catch passes out of the backfield. The Chiefs could take him in the 6th or 7th round. He’s 6’0, 215 and hasn’t fumbled the ball 🏈 any of his four years playing ball 🏈 at the college level. He averaged 5.8 yards a carry. I’m not sure about his speed.

    Walker is a 1 trick RB, albeit he is the best pure runner, he is a liability in pass protection and not an accomplished receiver. Walker is off the field on 3rd down. Basically if Walker is in the game, the Defense knows they are running the ball.
    Hall is a complete 3 down RB. And is only 20 years old and is likely to add a few more pounds of muscle. The 4.39 is real.
