He doesn't have a lot of wear on him at the college level and plays a similar style to kareem.

So you think he's the REAL DEAL?

My biggest concern right now is that Darrel Williams is the only RB on the team who is currently on a contract for 2019.

Yeah, some re-signings are in order, but if things go south, or some team signs Ware or Damien Williams for more money, we're really in a pickle.

I'd kind of like to see Darrel Williams have one or two carries coming up here so we can at least get some awesome training camp hype going about him.

It's not necessarily the quality of our options. It's the fact that we need so many to round out a corps for next year's team.

It really is gonna be interesting to see how this RB class turns out, especially as many draft geeks seem to believe that's it's a weak class. I personally believe there's plenty of gems to be had here, it's just a matter of picking the best fit. Rodney Anderson, Bryce Love, Damien Harris, David Montgomery, Darrell Henderson, Alex Barnes, Devin Singletary, Benny Snell etc, at least four or five of them should be available to us In the third round I think.

Sure.

Just as long as we don't spend a 1st round pick on any of them like you're suggesting.

UChieffyBugger · 12-11-2018, 06:15 PM

The question I'm asking myself is what kind of RB will they be after? Someone who is similar to Kareem i.e a tough runner who can break tackles and also catch the ball out of the backfield? Or do they look for a slightly faster guy who can run tough but also run routes like a receiver i.e like Gordon or Kamara? I personally hope that they go for the latter as it would bring a new dimension to this attack imo. I mean teams are already in hell trying to cover Hill, Watkins and Kelce, could you imagine if we had a Kamara type who ran routes too? Would be bonkers.

Out of the RB's In the current draft who can do that, Rodney Anderson and Alex Barnes might be the best bets. Darrell Henderson at a stretch too.

I asked this question before but what do yall think about Alex Barnes from K-state? To me he looks just as talented as the likes of Anderson but with no serious injury history.

Not in my opinion. Don't care for him much. Not enough lateral agility. Not good enough vision. Stops his leg drive on contact. Meh. Reminds me alot of Ryan Mathews. When things are opened up for him, he's going to do really well. When they aren't opened up, he's going to struggle and run into his own blockers.

Lamical Perine, junior RB for Florida Gators. About the same size and skill set as K. Hunt with a little more speed. He's in a RB by committee setup but he averages 4.9 yd/rush on 355 attempts and 13.9 yd/catch on 28 receptions for his career. It's only two plays, but he shows some K. Hunt vision and playmaking ability. Currently rated 3-5 round pick by Walter Football.

His cousin looks better and is struggling to get playing time in Washington.

Find the next Phillip Lindsay. Anyone know why we didn't take a flyer on him?

Chris Meck · 12-13-2018, 02:29 PM

mid round guy with a skill set that fits what we do.

O.city · 12-17-2018, 01:25 PM

Devin Singletary FAU aka Alvin Kamara 2.0

Great Expectations · 12-22-2018, 01:45 PM

I’d be all about Singletary if we could get him with the last pick in the second round.

I also like Anderson with a 5th or 6th round choice. He could be a game changer when healthy. He played all of ‘17...

Vaughn having a huge bowl game.

Really like his speed and pass-catching ability.
