Calichief 3,016 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 I’d love the Chiefs to get this guy. He plays hard. Has speed and power. Looks to make contact. He plays against legit competition too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,218 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Yeah sure would fit nice in our offense but I am normally opposed to spending a first on a RB and it may take that. Calichief 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are the experts on that. I’m not versed enough to know where guys land. Especially rb position these days. He looks like Hunt.. what’s your take?

Calichief 3,016 Posted October 12, 2019 Author Share Posted October 12, 2019 Ps- this guy won’t go out of bounds either. He cuts it back in to crack someone. Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,218 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I like him. Hard not to like a running back who can house it at any time and in any situation. That said he has the little guy issues, like is he big enough to hold up, and can he learn to block worth a shit. Can he be another Kamara/McCaffrey type? Hard to tell cause they barely throw it to him. The catches I've seen were shitty routes and he didn't look natural at all until he got turned upfield. The big knock on him to me is he lacks patience and doesn't let his blockers get set up, but holy crabcakes half of that is him shooting towards holes like he was shot out of a cannon. His acceleration is stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reminds me of Chris Johnson. He will test off the charts at the Combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidfriend 1,151 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Eh, I'm not really as high on him as you guys seem to be. Really runs far too upright for my liking, not sure how much I like him in the passing game and most of all I just think Clemson is just buzzsaw'ing through some rather shitty teams. I don't hate him, but there are some real question marks here and honestly I would rather see them focus on the line since Andy doesn't fucking bother scanning his entire Denny's Menu anyhow. Unless we're getting a new Head Coach, I have no idea why we would ever take a Runningback in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidfriend 1,151 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 And for a completely off-topic note here: I really thought that Jake Fromm killed the shit out of his draft stock against South Carolina. Just brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking over things, I don't see any RB's that are truly elite with this class. Some are great though, but I think none will go in the top 10. D'Andre Swift is #1 on my list right now and Taylor is #2. Those are the two backs I think are first round caliber guys at least for right now. Etienne, I think, is in that Alvin Kamara realm. Somewhere in the 2nd round, but it's too early to really get a great feel exactly where till we have a better idea who declares early. But I will say if that if a new CBA is still looming, I foresee a large underclass declaration happening. So I wouldn't rule it out if you're thinking you'd like to land him in the 2nd round.

jetlord 10,207 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Chiefs just have greater needs than at RB. O-line, LB, and CB seem like areas where a first round pick could play immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are going to blow the window this year, so time to do it right. Just wouldn't spend high on a RB because Andy can't feel fucking bothered to flip his sheet for long stretches of time.

ATLchief 3,126 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Clyde Edwards-Helaire from LSU. He can run, block, and catch. You could plug him in on day 1 as an every down back. Calichief 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
