Edelman, is that you??
@reamer any RBs that have taken your interest that we could be looking st for late round picks? Change of pace back, power back, special teams contributing type back, ala Bolden?!
Haven’t seen anyone talking about the RBs yet even on twitter.
If Andrews hadn't been playing so well, this guy would be near the top of my wishlist. Best center in this year's class.
Ive had my eye on Anderson from ndsu. Chess piece. Smooth rr you can actually use across the field. Nice balance & power for who he is. He'll make you miss in space. Really nice quicks w some juice yac. Pass pro is a problem though. He has a long way to go which is a lil concerning to say the least.I like Josh Jacobs, but he'll probably be the first to go. He's so quick and powerful. He's not huge, but he's still a bruiser. Love watching him. Runs with an attitude.
Elijah Holyfield surprised me and declared. I thought he should go back and build up his stock, but I'd be very interested in reuniting him with Michel.
If Anderson can recover from injury, he's intriguing. Bigger back, can catch and work in space, explosive. Reminds me of Ballage from last year, who I thought could be an interesting change of pace guy, but shows a bit more fluidity / natural feel for blocking lanes. He could bring some smash mouth to the team for sure. Actually, he's got some similarities to the Chiefs' Williams, who gave us a tough time in the passing game. Plus he's got a great nickname: Mr. Anderson.
Montgomery is great for balance, vision, breaking tackles, etc. I think he deserves to be a featured back. He'll probably go higher than we're looking to draft a RB, is my guess.
Snell is one of the few power backs who has some starter upside in this draft.
Mike Weber is a heavier James White. Like what he brings to the table.
Otherwise, not a great class this year, although a lot of solid mid round guys, as you mentioned. Jacobs' teammate Damien Harris always looked like a Patriots type. Not the fastest or biggest, but reliable and runs in synch with his blockers.
@BaconGrundleCandy can probably fill you in better, although I'm not sure any of the Senior Bowl RBs are on our radar to be honest.
Last I heard, only the Cousins, Johnson, and Norwell signings generated 3rds. I'd love to be wrong, though, since I really thought that the Solder contract should send us a 3rd.
