DoleINGout Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Love this draft but the Damien Harris could be their best pick when all is said and done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is, then doesn’t that speak to Sony Michel’s continued development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter2_1 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Not as weird a pick as I originally thought, Rex is made of biscuits and Michel had a bit of time out. No more WRs in the backfield (even though that worked really well vs GB) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChazStandard Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Is Hill still under contract? Either way, since Michel has a ring now, and played well throught the play-offs its hard to see him lasting past his rookie deal. He'll likely be overpaid by some RB needy team, and I wouldn't blame him for taking the money. The pick makes more sense the more I think about it.

Hill is not under contract with the Patriots anymore. I remember saying, "I wouldn't be mad if the Pats took Josh Jacobs in the first if he is available at 32." That created a chain of posts responding to me with criticism which I always welcome. Getting Harris in the second makes me just as happy and picking him did not surprise me at all. In fact, none of the picks surprised me. I was just very excited to see them all actually happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris got drafted in the 2nd half of the 3rd round. Very good value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemushrooms Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Pretty good RB. Honestly, reminds me a lot of Bolden with his skillset though. He's an OK runner with a Jonas Gray running style, can catch some passes, is pretty good at blocking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
