A ton of tread means he’s got a lot of tread left on his tires… If he doesn’t have much tread left on his tires, that means he’s been doing a lot of running…, Just letting you know that’s what it means… So when someone says he’s got a lot of tread on his tires, that means there isn’t much wear and tear… Just think about it, your car tires, if you have a lot of tread that means they’re pretty new…it’s pretty simple really… Anyway, great job just get it right all is well. Don’t draft another quarterback stick with Justin and get this team better.
I don't watch college football which is why I love your videos. Gives me a great starting place when looking towards fantasy drafts for my ten billion NFL dynasty leagues.
@DanielSalpietra I run my own. I have a few leagues. I invite random people to the non dynasty ones and reinvite people the following year that were good people and fun to play with. Now my dynasty leagues are full of active players that are good sports and I can trust.
My only complaint is that you repeat yourself and struggle with your thoughts it seems. But I think you have quite a future especially if you can go more in depth than you did here. Good luck with your channel! Also wondering about your thoughts on Jase McClellan? I think he’s an alright back with decent burst and speed alongside decent receiving abilities but every game I’m confounded by his hesitance to bust it outside which leads to minimum gain on such runs.
I really like TROY BENSON! His open Lane Runs is a SPRINT of 10 yards in 1 second . Its more than seeing a RB gain yards of highlights of open lane runs. In NFL it gets PHYSICAL and Benson shedding tackles on every highlight with 1 having 5 guys he broke away from. He is a true NFL RB and believe the best 1 out of the bunch. Believe me, I like Corum and the rest but Benson has many runs he shedding tackles over the hyped highlights of COLLEGE RBs gaining yards of open lanes ahead of them ( Linemen in College most overlooked reasons for RBs with mass yards. ( Remember that guy Patterson from Buffalo leading NCAA Rusher of class but not drafted and FA rookie for just 2 years )
Sleeping on Cody Schrader from Missouri. Has scored in last 8 games and just had 150 yards against Florida, and 300 scrimmage yards against Tennessee. Judkins from Ole Miss as well
Benson reminds me a bit of Carlos Hyde/Leonard Fournette. But if he can put it all together his peak can be like Nick Chubb. Corum reminds me of Warren.
I think with his slighter frame he might not have the best contact balance once he gets to the nfl where the defenders are bigger stronger and faster. But Bucky is my guy tho I love him.
I think that Trey Benson is the best RB in the country.. I would love to see him in Dallas.. As a Michigan Wolverine fan; I am hoping that Corum has a really nice career. He is an absolute hammer between the tackles on short yardage; that's why he has all of those TD's. Bucky Irving is also really, really good.
I think he does a good job at getting skinny in between the tackles and hits the second level pretty often. He also has good burst as well. I ultimately have him at either 11 or 12 on my list, so he just missed out for me.
Why would teams that don't want to give a second contract to a running back care about drafting an older running back? what difference does it make if they are 25 or 28 at the end of their rookie contract if you aren't going to give them a second contract regardless?
same reason you don’t give them a second contract, age is important. if you draft a running back that’s 21 you get him for his prime years which for a rb is 22-26/27. if you draft a older running back, he already has more tread on his tires than a running back in his early 20s.
@@peyton1865 disagree with your opinion and I think data would also. I think there are many more examples of 27 year old running backs doing well in the league than 20 year old running backs. I also don’t think there is any substantial evidence that upper classmen running backs are being drafted later than their talent merits because teams are concerned about their age.
There’s only about 5 good running backs over the age of 26 (and there better years are already behind them) as opposed to younger running backs dominating the league like Breece hall, Devon Achane, Jonathan Taylor, Travis Etienne, etc
@@TheDraftNerd5580 Go look at who is leading the league in rushing. Of the top 20 guys 11 of them are 25 or older, 6 of them are 24, leaving only Bijan, Kenneth walker, and breece hall in the top 20 at under 24 years old. So it looks a lot more like some very special highly draft guys are able to contribute at a high level when they are young but the league is acutally dominated by guys 24 and older. Which is what I was expecting and is the opposite of what you said.
@@TheDraftNerd5580 your claim in the video was that teams have been passing on older running backs in the draft process and again I don't think any form of analysis would agree with you. There just isn't any examples of that happening
LOL you're laughable... Bucky going down on 1st contact.. He's one of the leaders for yards after contact.. Patience as a con.. he goes between the tackles just as much or more than the outside.. you've obviously not watched Oregon Football games.
Honestly I don't know if I agree with your Bucky takes. Balance? He's top tier in that which I could prove in multiple clips off the top of my head. You also say that he goes down on first contact, which just seems wrong. Did you even watch his tape this year? His main deficiencies are Size/Injuries, and Blocking, with potentially pass catching since we don't see too much of it, but he looks good so far from that standpoint.
I def agree there isn’t a running back more talented than TVH in this class. His explosiveness, pass catching and homerun threat is second to none and he’s shown that over the last two weeks. Guy is incredible.
Henderson is super injury prone. That dude can't stay healthy to save his life. He plays in a spread offense that is pass dominant. Which means he runs constantly against light boxes. He's played alongside 4 1st rd draft picks at wr and 1 1st rd pick at qb. The defense focuses more on the passing game where he benefits.
@@TheDraftNerd5580 a blazer like Chris Johnson no but the guy seperates extremely well I don't know if you've seen but he doesn't get run down often in the open field. Hey listen I didn't realize how fast he was until this year myself. He hit 23mlp a few weeks ago and to be that big moving like that is scary. Does need to work on blocking and catching out of the backfield like u said but definitely my RB 1 in this draft whoever gets this kid will be blessed
What are the chances that there is another Raheem Mostert in the world? Such an uncommon name and two running backs exist with that name. One in the NFL who plays for the Dolphins and than Raheem who plays for Arkansas
Jaylen Wright is my RB1. I feel like these rankings are somewhat dated or based on popular consensus. Jaylen is a freak who will probably run a sub-4.3. He's got a great build at 5'11" 215lbs - he's cut. Outrageous 7.5 yards per attempt, 4.8 yards after contact per attempt, and 50.9% breakaway percentage. Good receiving grades. Year-over-year improvement. Best pass blocker at RB in this class. The disrespect he gets in rankings is absurd - you'd think he'd be a UDFA. I was saying the same thing last year about Lucas Van Ness - people have to turn on the tape and recognize the talent for what it is.
Well I feel like there is no popular consensus when it comes to the running backs this year. I’ve seen some ppl have Corum at 1 I’ve also seen Henderson, Brooks (before the injury) and even Bucky Irving. So you cant discredit someone just bc they’re a “popular” number 1 bc in most cases it’s bc they’re really good. But to be fair I haven’t done a deep dive into jaylen wright so who knows he might be my number 1 as well when the draft comes around
I don’t really watch college football at all, but I like videos like these along with highlights as guidelines for who to draft in my dynasty league. Went to Penn State tho is Nick Singleton not good enough to crack the top 10 or is he just not eligible for the draft yet? I hear his name everywhere so I figured he has to be a solid player lol
Henderson and Allen should be 1 and 2. Corom is going to get eaten alive in the NFL and Benson is no Treyveon Henderson… it’s unbelievable that Henderson entered college as the top RB of the 2024 class and EVERYONE keeps fighting the fact that he is the most explosive and dynamic back STILL out of all these guys. Let’s all be real with ourselves and stop the unnecessary narratives
Agree with the Henderson evaluation although if he's having a problem staying healthy in college being on a team that defenses focuses more on the passing game with light boxes im not to confident he's gonna be able to stay healthy in the NFL. Allen over Corum I'm not so sure, as a matter of fact Corum will far out perform Allen in the pro's. Benson might just end having the best career out of all the backs in this class, Trey is a hammer with excellent balance and tackle breaking abilities plus his quickness and long speed is way underrated. Turn on the tape friend
A ton of tread means he’s got a lot of tread left on his tires… If he doesn’t have much tread left on his tires, that means he’s been doing a lot of running…, Just letting you know that’s what it means… So when someone says he’s got a lot of tread on his tires, that means there isn’t much wear and tear… Just think about it, your car tires, if you have a lot of tread that means they’re pretty new…it’s pretty simple really… Anyway, great job just get it right all is well.

Facts
I think with his slighter frame he might not have the best contact balance once he gets to the nfl where the defenders are bigger stronger and faster. But Bucky is my guy tho I love him.
vikings need a guy, feel like Bucky Irving fits . Texans could use a pass catcher back depending on what they do with singletary/pierce.
After Singletary’s most recent performance I think we’re chilling but a good late round RB would be nice

wish he would have stayed with Oregon.. Benson is a beast
