The 2 players who have caught my eye are possible Blount replacements.
I love Blount, but he really struggled in the playoffs this year & unless he is willing to come back for short money again he is young.
We all know the Patriots change there game plan from week to week, depending on the opponent. Blount could get 22 carries this week & 5 next week.
I really like Samaje Perine from Oklahoma. This guy is a beast who would be the a force in short yardage or in the red zone. As a freshman in 2014 he set the FBS single game rushing record with 427 yards.
Samaje Perine is 5'10' 236 lbs

He may not be Earl Campbell, but he sure reminds me of Campbell the way he breaks tackles.
The other guy I really like in the draft is James Connor from Pittsburgh.
He is a recent cancer survivor "Hodgkins Lymphoma'
James Connor is a big boy at 6'2' 235 lbs.

Every time I see him play, I think he looks like a Patriots type of player.
