None of that translated to the NFL. It's really easy to judge in retro-vision.
I have loathed CEH for a while now. Terrible vision, slow as hell, just not even close to the talent level around him.
It was a miss. It happens. NEVER draft a RB in the 1st round, or even the 2nd honestly.
Whoever was intrigued by CEH's college tape, should have been turned off by the combine. IT WAS A BAD PICK.
Not a reason to ignore ALL rbs until the 3rd round [Reply]

Yeah, he's actually a phenomenal blocker. It's weird. [Reply]

The red flag I never got around was his slow 40 time. In this offense you have to be able to bounce one to the outside or you're handicapped.
It's not just his speed, or lack thereof, it's his HORRIFIC vision of not being able to see the available seam/hole. He's consistently awful at it. [Reply]

He's really good at running up the back side of his offensive lineman. One of the best I've seen. A perfect fit in Marty Schottenheimer's scheme [Reply]

CEH is still needed and would have been perfect when we were needing to throw the ball.
This is the 2nd time I've seen you post this stupid ass shit. Pacheco has messed up on 1 pass block and it was against one of the better players in the NFL. You stanning for MEH makes sense though, cuz youre a retard. [Reply]

Lmao, what? I thought it was common knowledge that McKinnon was an absolute stud in pass protection? Pacheco is probably better than MEH as well, but I just need to see more to be positive. [Reply]

That’s why McKinnon was in the last series last night, even if CEH wasn’t sidelined with an injury. [Reply]
I've never understood CEH's usage, and I honestly think he might've ended up a useful player if he'd not been plagued by injury - he looked decent as a rookie. But I hated the pick and I only hate it more now. I was reluctant to call him a bust because I thought he'd retain some value. But he's a bust, a total whiff, an awful pick.
Oh well, apparently we got an adequate replacement in the 7th round! [Reply]
