I think our needs at IOL are bigger than WR, though I do like his speed. Tbh, I didn’t realize Reagor was as fast as he is. But sometimes I do questions Ben’s deep ball. Maybe his new elbow will get him back to his old days. Isn't Shenault just as good if not better? One or the other might be there w/o moving. *I'll add Mims though his drops are annoying. Reminds me of Martavious. Edited April 4, 2020 by Chieferific Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigben07MVP Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Reminder that we met with CEH at the combine. Farabaugh is a great follow for Steelers and draft stuff by the way. Edited April 4, 2020 by bigben07MVP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jebrick Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I love CEH but I would take Eno Benjamin in the 4th if i wanted a 3rd down back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad player, in fact a very good one. I just want a faster, multi-purpose back. I think Akers is my pick of the backs too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 All I know is I was watching some Big Ben highlights and some of his best games came when he had Bell to dump it off to. I think the thought that Ben doesn’t like checking down is overblown. He just rarely has anyone good to check down to. How many sacks did Bell save Ben from. Instead of holding it for an extra 3 seconds, as soon as his first couple reads weren’t there, he’d dump it to Bell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moore was a plodder who was good at pass blocking and catching dump offs that’s pretty much it. CEH is dynamic and tough as nails. I prefer Akers as well though. He’s a freaking stud.

jsthomp2007 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Why isn't anyone talking about you all drafting a QB? I know you all have Big Ben, but he was hurt all of last year and he ain't gett'n younger. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2884432-2020-nfl-draft-predicting-destinations-for-every-draftable-quarterback#slide10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft one next year and have him sit for a year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its cringey it’s Ride or Die with Big Ben. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren’t going to be in a position to take a QB that has good upside, so why not double down with Ben?I think people also are confident with Rudolph improving over the offseason and being a solid backup. We’re in a position to contend with Ben and I think they are going to put all the eggs in that basket. Are Fromm, Hurts, or the kid from Washington actually any better than Mason Rudolph? I’d argue no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
