Based on just a little bit of watching videos, kid is talented.  Dunno if we're spending a 1st round pick on a RB though... Maybe after watching more I'd see the value better, but RB is way low on my list of positional research atm, heh.  He seems quick as hell and powerful enough, very interesting prospect.

Except that he won't be there at 30.  If we're going to use a first round pick on a runningback, I would rather use it on getting Nick Chubb next year. 

Maybe we can get Chubb and Jake Butt.

 

The Chubbybutt draft.

He's not near Gurley's level and Gurley went 10th. Teams may look at what happened with Gordon and be weary of drafting a RB in the 1st. I agree, I doubt he falls to 30, but if he does we're on him and we're set for years.

I think he's gonna be on Trent Richardson's level...

I think your wrong the more I watch on this guy the more I think he will not even be a option. He runs over people on the outside,inside there is no arm tackling this guy he is a beast we would be lucky to get him but like I said I don't think he would be option at 30. But we will need to find out replacement at RB soon.

Houston will pick him before he gets to Panthers

As of now I'd agree.  IF he made it to 25 I'd trade a 3rd to Pitt to take him before the Hawks.  And this is coming from a guy who hated the idea of a RB in the 1st again.

But I don't see how he makes it to even the late teens.  And at that point we'd have to give a 2nd and I don't want that.

    • I don't think working from memory is going to be very productive or useful. You would need to compare them all, which is far easier to do from the breakdowns of each game. That has tiered charts that give real data.  But, even then that wouldn't substitute for a trained eye(s) doing detailed film analysis to attempt to determine if we are modifying the offense dramatically for Bryce.
    • I think front office and general team culture under new ownership is sort of on the right track. The rookies all look incredible compared to where you'd expect each one of them to be right now. Lee's in game coaching is awful, he might be ok as a culture and developmental guy but that can't outweigh the in-game miscues and bad game plans. If LaMelo can't figure out the ankles then I think you gotta trade him for a haul, can't keep having your seasons lost every year because he can't stay on the court. And I say that as a big fan of him. Miller I think is unlucky, he looks likely to be an elite core player for us, but if he can't put together a stretch of healthy seasons he would trend towards LaMelo and need to be moved. I used to like Miles on the court a lot more but nowadays he's just an empty stat guy who needs to go. The short lived hot start to the season was fun but unless LaMelo and Miller both get and stay healthy within the next few weeks I can't even see us being a play-in team this year. And even if they do get healthy, we're probably looking at play-in at best, maybe barely compete for that fringe 6th seed.
