Spend a 2nd day pick on a guy who will see what 40% of the RB touches? Or do you wanna cut Freeman (a3rd rounder as well) or Lindsay?

As does Ke’shawn Vaughn. I will watch them thanks for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could use a 3rd, yes, but we don’t need to spend a premium pick to get him with all the other positions of far greater need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncoBruin Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 You don't pass on elite front 7, offensive line or wide receiver talent to take a RB who won't even see the field half the snaps. That's just having no concept of value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly can’t believe you seriously think this Keeping guys fresh for a second contract seems reasonable especially if there's blue chip Talent to be had then you rotate that talent after 4 years.

I'm a BPA kinda guy if I can get a Leveon Bell to pair with Lindsay and Freeman and make Locks job that Much easier why not?

It is significantly harder to find true speed mismatches at receiver who aren't just one trick ponies than it is to find productive running backs, who you can pull off the street.

I think this is a playoff team next year so a fresh staple of dangerous rbs seem better to me in January then a better wr than a TY Hilton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind our picks can change by then You think getting another RB who sees the field 30% of the time moves the needle more than an offensive lineman who will be blocking for Lock 100% of the time? If the answer yes, you've gone completely off the deep end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind our picks can change by then Say You could guarantee that whatever position you choose in the 2nd and/or 3rd would be an elite talent, meaning you want them on the field as much as possible. Would you rather that player take snaps and touches away from Royce and Phillip or from Ronald Leary, McGovern, Yiadom, Jewell/Davis, etc?

Nooooo I'm strictly comparing the move to a round 2 wr stop taking what I say out of context. I also think an elite in line te is more valuable than a wr with a rookie qb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a qb on his rookie deal I value elite ceiling in line te, Elite ceiling RB over number 2 wr Idk why you think I'm cheapening other positions.

Because you’re saying we need another RB in that 2nd 3rd round range. Which would take away from other positions. Do you really not get that?
