I have to figure that barring some really gaga value not making final cuts from another roster, Jones is going to get the RB2 nod for at least the first 3-4 games. The pivot for where a move may be made is likely at or around those two division games with Arizona and the SeaChickens back-to-back ahead of a back-to-back-to-back of Giant, Lions, and Texans all of whom can be run on and which can be a good triumverate to bed in a guy who didn't see camp with us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They fell victim to tunneling on a particular type and when Eskridge went right ahead of us they pivoted to who they had next-up in that type. I would hope they at least tried to trade back, but also given the fact that speed moves receivers up boards regardless of size these days, I also won't be surprised if they justified pulling the trigger on him in the 2nd because they weren't confident he'd make it to our next pick after our 2nd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson would be a great addition. Yeah, granted it's fantasy stuffs (but they tend to do a good job of sifting through the smoke), but what I've heard from the Texans beat is they plan on using Lindsay as the 1-2 down guy and will deploy someone else at the COP/3rd-down back. To me, that suggests Burkhead is a lock to make the roster if he stays healthy. So yeah, it's a battle between Johnson and Ingram for that 3rd RB spot - because Burkhead can see time as both a pass-catcher and a goal-line guy.

It would be a big part but last year was Hekker's worst year in years and Corey is a solid punter. I think Hekker's performance was more on the coverage than him but that is speculation.
