I know the position is undervalued, but Pacheco is an awfully important piece of this offense now, and moving forward. He's also going to wear down fast.
I'd like to address the RB2/split time spot in this draft. Mckinnon is probably close to done, and Clyde is not an answer long-term.
Who do you like? I'm not saying first round, or even second-but by the mid rounds, I'd be looking for an all-around back to split time with Pacheco. [Reply]

He’s a good fit to replace the McKinnon role, he was a return man on kick offs, and a gunner on punts for Texas.
Size. That's the problem. Jaden Shirden is twice the runner but he's probably going to have a tough time. Jawhar Jordan. Bucky Irving... All are 5'8" 190. Throw them in a bucket and shake it up... [Reply]

No. Look how many touchdowns he scored it's not even comparable to CEH. Also if CEH was drafted in the middle rounds he would have been a fine pick. Corum is a mid round one contract guy who's going to have great value in short yardage/goal line situations [Reply]

Probably the top combine performance.
How high can he climb?
Beyond what it's worth for a RB. Genuinely gutted. It's no fun getting on the bandwagon early when they blow up at the combine and go 2 rounds earlier than your "check out this sleeper" post suggested weeks ago [Reply]

Any chance you can update this crow, post combine? I’m curious. Estime might fall to the 6th? That 40 has to kill him? Success rates of RBs with bad 40s is pretty bad statistically? Guerendo is probably a 3rd rounder now?

The likelihood of a R1 RB this year? Probably Zero. I think it'll look like a blend of 2022 and 2019... ish. And those just happen to be the two years in that span with higher than average (20) numbers of backs taken (22 and 23, respectively). I have 25 draftable RBs. Of course, a few might go undrafted.
Here's my take...
Round 2
Jonathan Brooks, Texas
Trey Benson, Florida State
Jaylen Wright, Tennessee
