Now if he goes to the combine and runs around a 4.8, no I wouldn't touch him. But if he runs a 4.65 or lower, yeah I'd take that kid in the middle rounds easily.

I mean, look at 1k rushers this year and you'll a few in that 4.6-4.65 range... Kyren Williams and Josh Jacobs come to mind

He's never fumbled?

Yeah I'd take a flyer on him in the middle rounds as well

Alot of differing data on him fumbling or not...

https://www.espn.com/college-footbal...1/cam-skattebo

https://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/players/321989/

https://www.statmuse.com/cfb/player/...5/career-stats

https://fantasydata.com/ncaa-footbal...ntasy/50060622

https://www.sportskeeda.com/college-...skattebo/stats

So it appears that major outlets have not given him any but the others do, which I was unaware of. Sports-Reference doesn't give fumble data on college players.

Anyhow, if he has 5 fumbles over the past two seasons with 1 lost, I'd hardly call it a major issue.

Not sure he’d ever fully utilize them correctly, but could you imagine this offense with a Saquon Barkley at RB? Not sure this team will be able to address LT anytime soon and who knows when Pat will get over his yips, but give this team a truly dominant rushing attack and it could mostly mask the weaknesses in the passing game.

The more I reflect on this, the more I think RB is no where near our biggest need. OL, DL, LB, CB, WR all bigger needs for sure, as it stands.

RB is an area where it would be relatively easy to get better, sure. But if the O line regresses once Trey walks, that could offset any benefit of a better back.

It's not

They need a CB/DE/DT before they think about a RB, but I'm a full on BPA guy now. Just keep taking good player.

Pick 66 please

Will be the most interesting pick this year I think.

Hoof. That's pretty nasty.

I'm a super douche homer for Neal. I'm trying to tamp it down, but mother****er I'd watch him on Satudays and the Chiefs on Sundays, and long for him to be in red.

I'll admit, he needs to test well and he has a fair bit of miles on his tread, but **** it. Draft the kid.

smithandrew051 01-30-2025 06:04 PM

Trade every draft pick to move up for Devin Neal if needed.

Okay maybe don’t do that.

If he’s there in the third though. Maybe a slight reach, but worth it.

You can homer for Neal. I will homer for Johnson. Maybe one of us will get what we want. :thumb:

Since we're all homering, I'll homer for Henderson then.

The RB class is stacked.

My question is which of these guys is going to go in the 7th or UDFA and still make an impact on an NFL team?

Still kind of waiting on consensus ranking to come into play but a few I've seen with low grades that might be some quality are these:

Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Arizona (look @ Alabama State and New Mexico + E/W Shrine)
Corey Kiner, Cincinnati
Phil Mafah, Clemson
Micah Bernard, Utah
Ja'Quinden Jackson, Arkansas
Montrell Johnson, Florida
Mario Anderson, Memphis
Peny Boone, UCF (look @ his last year at Toledo)
LeQuint Allen Jr., Syracuse

kccrow 02-02-2025 11:42 AM

If you're kind of looking for "the guy" that we think could be a steal and not the laundry list I gave... I'm on the Phil Mafah train. He's got good vision, good size, and is pretty solid in all aspects. I just don't like his long speed but when we're talking about a guy in the 7th or UDFA then there is a reason he isn't going in the 3rd or 4th so they are missing something.
