Just watched this on YT. I know it's just highlights, but Swift shows better than average acceleration, balance, change-of-direction. He also seems to have good vision and decisiveness.

According to ESPN's analysts he's got a high football IQ and maturity beyond his years.

I keep saying "according to ESPN analysts" because I don't exactly trust their takes many times, but the tape suggests this kid is NFL ready.

True enough, but if we take an RB in the 1st round he better be the Patrick Mahomes of Runningbacks.

Also a very high level receiver, and enjoys competition as he went to UGA when other NFL backs were there and it didn't bother him.

But it's a no for me in round 1. I'd go BPA to a degree in Rd 1 and then take someone like Moss in 2 or 3.

Their careers are also short.

If he plays for you for 5 years at a solid level you got your picks worth, how many players sign second deals with the teams that drafted them, maybe 20%?

This is pick 32 not pick 5.

Mecca 04-16-2020 02:33 PM

Look at the Chiefs they currently have....

7 players that they either drafted or signed as UDFA's that they gave second contracts to on the roster, 7 out of 53.

This would be amazing if it happened. Hard to see it happening though

That would be very nice if he was there.

No mention of a RB yet they had multiple JK Dobbins interviews

I've seen a few people that have Murray rated higher than Queen. Just sayin'. I'm not sure I do, but I'm a guitar player, for ****'s sake. What do I know?

I think the biggest reason for that is Murray’s ability to play MLB, while also being that team captain leader type. Also, some like Murray’s ability to get after the QB took as an added bonus to his game.

I have Queen higher as well, but it’s close.

I'd love to finally have a baller at linebacker. Both Dorsey and Beach have been subpar in their time here evaluating and adding talent at linebacker, both in the draft and FA.
