And Achane was another guy I REALLY wanted 2 seasons ago. For the very same reasons and despite a healthy Pacheco.

Yeah. Perine was okay but he’s 29 and ran a 4.65. The difference between a guy like that and Achane is enormous. I suspect they had no interest in Achane bc he wasn’t big enough to block, and that’s a big thing for them.
We need speed. We need lateral agility. And we need someone with a nice feel for the passing game. Good news is there are quite a few of those guys in the draft and I think we’re gonna get one
