Tell me about Chuba

The base is there. Didn't have a great season last year. I think he's a potentially great backup for CMC.

[panfanman]

Chuba 2000+ yards in 2019.  7 runs 50 or more yards.  Would have been a 1st rounder if he had come out last year.  But he got in the coaches dog house in the of season because of an argument and was benched much of the time in 2020.

 

Love this pick.

Did they just not scout these guys and have no idea who the standouts are? Seems like lazy drafting to me.   

Appears that way but if the hit on these late picks I’ll eat crow 

[pantherclaw]

This argument that trading down still at this point is wasted time. 

If it's so much more difficult to find good football players at thus point in the draft ( not true, but for the sake of this stupid argument let's go with it), then having more picks at this point in the draft gives us.much better chances at finding the good ones.

I get all the trades for more picks now for OUR TEAM. Rhule is a team builder. He can either try and create an identity on a team by hoping you selected a few really talented guys correctly and they can create what you want, or you flood the roster with guys maybe a little less talented, but are exactly the cultural fit and style you want for your kind of football. We’re building the back half of our roster with Rhule type guys so in the future, we just need to sprinkle on super game changing talents. It’s not a bad idea.

Just like it possible you trade up for a player who can't make it on Field but you're still paying him more money then the 3 players you might get trading down and taking more swings..

So are you suggesting that teams trade down and only draft in the 6th round? To me it is suggesting that the scout team is not good at their jobs… This is a risk averse approach. I will give them the benefit of the doubt this year since COVID limited the amount of tape for this years picks. In future years I would rather trust the scout team to do their jobs and target the correct players for each round.

Love this pick.

Whoa! I thought he was injured/covid risk during the season. The coach benched him that long over an argument?
