Can we discuss this guy...interested in posters views.  Personally, I cannot even fathom passing on him, but still he is a RB and injuries are a concern.  We have other needs that are probably more important as well.  I also like Christian McCafferry and his running style (esp if we keep Stew).  Not sure 100% on whether we should use 8 on him.  Should we pass on him if avail and go pass rusher\move down\other need?

Thoughts bitoches.

As far as injuries go he will not have as many touches in the NFL he was way over used they literally jump on his back and carried that team and they still couldn't stop him. Now last season was not as impressive as his last cause he was play hurt all year.
I think he is a player you have to fight to get even if that means trading up to get we have the picks to do it and still have plenty of picks left or shift a mid round pick next year. If the cb drops to the jets I think they will go defense.
What would it take to trade to the 2nd or 3rd spot?

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
