The averages over the last 6 drafts:
R1 1.5, R2 2.5, R3 3.2, R4 3.8, R5 2.7, R6 3.7, R7 3.0
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
Interesting. I appreciate that. It’s good work. It’ll be interesting to come back and see how close this prediction is. If this is true, give me Isaac Guerendo in the 5th and Ray Davis in the 7th. I don’t see anyway Ray falls that far. He’s not a combine star but the guy just knows how to play the game. I’m vandy fan and watch mostly sec ball. And Ray is a baller. He just understands the game. He’s a great wr too. He knows where to sit in the open spot and has great hands. He’s a good blocker and savvy runner and runs with power also. He’s productive at both vandy and Kentucky.

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?

They are WAY higher on Tyrone Tracy than I am. One thing with Tracy is he's a 24-year-old right now so that's a big factor when you start looking at a RB.
They seem to be in the same ballpark as I feel on the rest though. [Reply]
You're high on Allen, eh? Seems to be a lot of mixed feelings out there, but he could be a great thunder to Pachecco's lighting IMO. I like Benson too! But, ultimately, I think we find value in RD 4 with Irving, Lloyd, or Gore Jr. Later rounds I like Guerendo or Watson!

Going to be a fun draft!
I just saw some sites that had Braelon Allen ranked as the 10th best back. So, I was thinking that he’d be a great pick in the 4th. He’s an intriguing athlete with that size, speed and production. [Reply]
Love this kid. Fits us like a glove. And we met with him.
Cecil Lammey was one of the few people banging the drum for the Broncos to draft Pacheco and was sick when we got him. Now he’s scared it’s gonna happen again :-)
Arguably the best pass catching RB has met with the #Chiefs. That would be bad for the rest of the #NFL if they drafted him. Irving and Pacheco would be tough to handle. Bucky can play slot too. pic.twitter.com/qGMuJvDfKd

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]
