You can find good backs all over, but if you have a shot at a GREAT back, there’s no question you should have no problem taking him in the 1st round. If you can get a Barry Sanders/AP/ Marshall Faulk etc type back, do it!
Look up Ashton Jeanty’s 2023 highlights. It shows his diversity of RB and RB out of the backfield as a receiver. Due to injuries at the RB position this year is the reason he was given so many rushes. I’ve 500 yds rec. in 2023
Only problem with what Stokely said is that every running back he just named was a first round draft pick even though they left their teams in free agency. They were still first round draft picks. You can’t always get a first round talent in the second or third round.
Exactly what I was thinking when he said that. Does he not realize Barkley and Henry were first round picks? Everyone knew they were going to be fire just like Ashton. He doesn’t understand the value of a player that makes that kind of an impact
A RB who can take it 80 yds at any point in the game is invaluable. Taking a RB in the 1st round is smart if he is a game changer. Jeanty is a game changer
It’s not drafting for position of need anymore it’s drafting best player available or best player to help your football team win. I think drafting Ashton jeanty would be drafting a player who could help your team score some points and help our young quarterback. We’re gonna end up with a mid 20s pick so who else you gonna get? Tyler Warren isn’t Brock bowers, our O line is pretty set for now so going after play makers is the move
All I want for Christmas is a Tight End with size and hands. Running backs, its a crap shoot, you can find diamonds in the rough in the draft. Signing a veteran seems like a better route.
Bolles has been an elite LT that’s gotten better and better and now everyone’s finally in a system that’s not going nowhere!!!! This offense is gonna be amazing for years to come
I wouldn't count out a top tier Center either. We know Payton loves his OL and Wattenberg/Forsyth are the weakest links. RB, TE, WR, CB, all valid needs as well. DT maybe.
With where we are with running backs, If Ashton jeanty falls to us in the first round and we don’t take him then it will be our biggest first round draft mistake since taking Paxton lynch. We would be idiots to pass Ashton up. If we had Ashton this year doing what he does and helping Bo then we’d be 11-2 right now.
The idea that runningbacks will be easy to get won't be a thing anymore. You won't find really good ones anymore outside the 1st round. Its starting to change. Jeanty is a game breaker. He is a barry sanders but different type of back. JEANTY IS THE MOST COMPLETE RUNNINGBACK OF ALL TIME. He will break the NFL rushing record. Your team will instantly be Playoff bound.

Jenty 1st RD CB 2nd round 3rd round TE (also sign a good vet at TE) if there's any available

It’s not just drafting some RB it’s drafting a major play maker to help us score points. And he so happens to play running back.
@Beerus52 exactly

TE or RB imo HAVE to be a priority if you feel like there’s a difference maker still available
All I want for Christmas is a Tight End with size and hands. Running backs, its a crap shoot, you can find diamonds in the rough in the draft. Signing a veteran seems like a better route.
It just blows my mind how devalued the running back position has become.
We absolutely NEED a game changing running back, and tight end.

Kaleb Johnson at rb..Hands down the best prospect!!

Yes. The problem is that the Giants or Cowboys will get to him first. I think the Cowboys are taking him.
I’d rather have Skattebo as a later pick. We need a TE desperately.

How about Cam from ASU in the second or third round?
If Den got Skattebo in the 2nd, I'd be very happy.
There were people saying Detroit should have drafted Jamar Chase instead of Sewell

leta calm down
DL over OL in the 2nd round. We just re-signed Bolles. We are probably going to lose DJ Jones
