So who looks good in this upcoming draft?

If you want to get a head start on a new Chiefs RB, look for a small school kid, DV. II maybe, that is a workhorse, decent receiver, lots of yards after contact.

He'll be a 6th or 7th rounder, or an UDFA.

Everything else is not happening. We have holes to fill, holes in which we have NO starter, we're not spending serious capital on a spot where we have 4 guys we could line up.

But you didn't mention that he reminds you of Kareem Hunt.

I thought this thread was just about naming running backs and saying they have a little Kareem Hunt about them.

Looks like we could buy him back...

I know, right?

It's funny, but there's a definite psychological theme in which planet posters just miss a guy they liked and see him everywhere they look. Or the lack of him, the space in which he used to live...

it's sweet, really. Bunch of softies.

Lol you still stuck on the fo not taking a rb eatly?

we'll see. I still believe they will be drafting a new one with the 3rd or 5th round pick.

You still stuck on that they will, despite giving Williams an extension and how well he played?

You're right, we will see.

Yes, because Williams is obviously on Todd Gurley money, right?

He's on starter money. They're committed to him.

Mecca · 01-31-2019, 01:11 PM

We should just sign Tevin Coleman.

Mark Ingram was on starter money too, Saints still drafted Kamara and also had Peterson on the roster as well. Damien Williams is decent and should be part of a rotation with a young stud RB imo. Copying NO with the one-two punch they have would take our offense to a different level as having a dangerous run game would mean hell for the opposition because they really couldn't defend us no matter what they do. We've got to learn from the two first halves against the Pats, those were the only reasons why we lost both times.

The Chiefs drafted their rotational back last year. The also have Spencer Ware.

RB is NOT a need.

I’d love to have Bryce love in the second. Reminds me of Jamaal Charles. He’s gonna be a stud. I would have drafted him in the first pre injury.

For the record, Ty Johnson looked awfully good in the Shrine Game.

That's still my guy provided that he doesn't work himself into the early rounds. It would really depend on the board (as all things) but I really think he could slide into the 5th and he'd be a perfect fit, IMO.

He may be a little too much like Damien Williams for some people's tastes but I think he can be an awfully solid back in this system.

you don't need a RB to be on Todd Gurley money.
