it's true Walter football does have some connections with scouts, but they are generally regarded as one of the worst websites for football, and for a reason.  I don't think even the more respected sites have any true sources inside our team, we're too far out of the national spotlight.

Sure, we may love the guy, 32 teams probably love the guy, but it doesnt mean we or any other team drafts him over the other 40 guy we like.  It's just that time of year.

Funny enough, I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere that their mock the last 2 years was one of the most accurate anywhere online.

At his size he reminds me a good bit of Deshaun Foster. I'm not sure he has the extra gear to break away consistently though. And after 3-4 years he's going lose his top end speed. Wouldn't mind having him but I wouldn't take him at 9.

I think Bijan is extremely talented but I agree he doesn’t have Barkley type gears and the comparisons to him are very lofty.

Please no more 1st round RBs.

But...but....but. Hes different!!!111!!!!

 

Im the larry david gif on him. Ive always been a value BPA guy. RB is not less valuable, just the pool has many that are able to produce for much lower salary. But my god, hes in the top 2 of my overall rankings. Id have to see whos else is still at 9......... like the 5th edge is about the point Im thinking bijan is right there.....

poo idk wtf y’all smokin but if we dropped down got another pick and got Bijan I’d be more than ok with it. CMC is a great player but in rb years he’s basically over the hill. We traded him to recoup and we can start the process over with someone with just as much potential as he had coming out. I’m all for it. Better than using #9 on an OL or WR if we don’t have the opportunity for the preferred QB there.

I hope he is right. Bijan can be a force behind this line. Tanner McKee and Hendon Hooker should be there in the 2nd and we can still get a vet in FA. Yall always devalue RB. Yea Foreman and Hubbard did a solid job against a handful of teams but the more stout defenses shut them down. Neither can catch a ball consistently to save their lives and rbbc only works if all are healthy and available to playe each game. I like this over Johnston because Bijan at least has the consistency to back up his physical talent. I'm all for it if "their guy" isn't available.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
