Phire Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Any 5'4, 150 lbs runningbacks we can trade up for on day 3 stacking up amazing stats somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Great year to need a RB once again. The ND RB is going off too. 8 carries, 159 yards, 2 td's. In the 1st quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, but if there is one he will surely be drafted by the Eagles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAConrad Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Any chance Barkley falls to like 15? Chance we end up around there if we finish .500. After watching him this year...even though I don't know much about the 2018 class yet, my gut tells me no way a talent like that falls outside the top 10. Dudes gonna be better than Zeke. He is what people want McCaffrey to be, only he is a legitimate 20+ carry a game kind of back. Might be hyperbole but I watch him and think this guy is the next generation hall of fame runnning back like Tomlinson and AP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAConrad Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 True. If Fournette and Zeke can go top 5....Barkley absolutely should. All these recent top RB draftees have had some issue that could hamper them ie Zekes off the field issues, Gurleys durability, McCaffreys size and questions about being a 3 down back, Fournettes pass catching issues (and durability perhaps). I don't see a single flaw in Barkleys game. It's insane. I've never watched a runnning back in college that I can remember so good that I already think he's going to be a hall of famer barring some bizzare injury or incident. He's A pipedream I suppose. What about Scarborough? I like him a lot. Blount is 30 and on a 1 year deal. Hed be an instant and better replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jroc04 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I still don't see why teams take running backs so early in the draft. The Cowboys taking Zeke just happened to be a perfect storm. They didn't have an immediate need at QB and their OL was set. You can argue that Ramsey should have been the pick given their situation but can't argue with it now. He's a good player. And probably the right pick. I don't think you take a RB until all your blue chip prospects are off the board at premium positions. (QB, T, CB). Fournette doesn't seem to be a very special RB and the Jags have plenty of problems. You can argue that 5 RBs taken after him are making a bigger impact than him. But that can also speak to the draft in general. Better teams are picking later and most better teams are already mostly set in those premium positions. So, the chance that a Barkley falls is reasonable to me. Especially when you consider how many good RBs were taken this year. How many teams will actually consider a RB in the first. Even a talent like Barkley. I think it's certainly in the cards for us to have a chance, if even just a chance to trade up, to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phire Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 McCaffrey inexplicably went 8th overall. I know people like him but I don't think he'll ever live up to that draft spot. There's no way in hell Barkley makes it out of the top 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a lot, but I do think there'll probably be at least a couple in need of a RB that can be elite as a rookie and doesn't need great blocking... *cough* Fournette *cough* 7 hours ago, Jroc04 said: I think it's certainly in the cards for us to have a chance, if even just a chance to trade up, to get him. I'm expecting a bunch of teams wanting to trade up for him and we are probably gonna be picking in the mid teens at worst. There is a solid chance we are a playoff team. The trade up from the 20s into the top 5 or even the top 10 would be tough. Teams don't usually like to trade down that far. We'll see I guess, but the good news is we can still get a very good back if we don't get a generational talent like Saquon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
