Word on the street: Gurley going top 10

[Bartin]

Eddie Lacy was a 2nd rounder

[CarolinaCoolin]

The medical re-check has teams believing he won't have to start the year on the PUP list and could be ready to go by week 1 so that's the reason for the stock going up.

That and also I think teams are starting to realize just how good this guy is.

Good catch

 

"With the 29th pick in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft (#61 overall), the Green Bay Packers have selected Eddie Lacy."

 

I stopped reading at 29th pick....

As good as he is, I don't think I would have wanted him in the first.. RB's have been devalued over the past couple of seasons. You can find quality backs in the 3rd-4th rounds now. 8 seasons ago, a guy like Le'Veon Bell would have went in the top 15, easy.

I think they already knew. I mean it's basically been unanimous from every report I've ever read quoting a team source that Gurley was easily a top 10 pick without the injury and now that his medical check has him making a full recovery with him being available possibly by training camp his stock is going back to the original projection.

i had a dream we traded up for devante parker , prob will never happen though 

[Diehardpanther02]

Never wanted him to begin with. I anticipate he will be hurt often.

That and he is a RB so the value just isn't there IMO. Get a dude in the mid rounds.

Dont understand the statement "he is a rb so the value isn there". The run game is just as important if not more important than the passing game today. The value is there if the guy you pick is worth it.

LMAO taking a running back in the first round, its like were living in the 60s.

It's going to be hilarious when a rb taken in the 3rd out performs him.

Cool story OP. We all know Gurley is going to the Panthers for real.

[PizzaTheHutt]

I'm definitely on board the Gurley hype-train. I've been talking myself down for the past week or two that there's no way in Hell he will be there at 25 so I don't get disappointed on draft night. I have complete trust in Gettlemagic to make the right move regardless of who it is, but damn this guy would make us legitimate contenders for years.

He won't be there when we pick. So I'm over it.
