You can get average RBs anywhere in the draft. I'm talking about game changers. I miss Kareem Hunt. Our offense hasn't been as dynamic w/o him. He's clearly not that easy to replace.

But the problem is at the end of dragging the pile, he ends up twisted up like a pretzel. So I think injuries are just waiting to happen for him. |

Yall put too much stock in where a guy is drafted. Was it CEH fault he was drafted at 32? No but he impressed the brass and Patrick Mahomes enough to draft him there. He should have been a 3rd or 4th and then impress the coaches in practice to be a starter and everyone would have loved him then and still would be rooting for the 4th rounder. They are the under dogs. Like this draft we got guys that were later rounds that can take over and be week one starters but they weren't first rounders. Most first rounders have extra pressure on them and expectations and almost to some impossible to meet fans expectations their first year. ****ing give CEH his dues and give him this year if he fails then coach will have someone else run in his place. GET OVER HE WAS A FIRST ROUND PICK. Not his fault he was drafted where he was not his fault he did the splits getting tackled causing an injury just before he had a shot of being OROY. That's some bullshit not giving him a chance going into his third year . If he sucks he sucks and someone else will ****ing tale the rock. Right now he is the starting running back of my ****ing favorite team the GOD DAMN KANSAS CITY CHIEFS SUCK IT IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT. If he sucks they will make changes if he succeeds then good for us right? I'm rooting for him more now because all you doubters.

I like and root for CEH. I don't have to argue because it's futile. If he makes a great impact great better yet helps us win a Lombardi then nobody can say he wasn't worth the #32 pick of the draft. If he sucks or keeps getting injured he won't be a Chief very long and Chiefs will dismiss him. I'm at no loss either way I want Chiefs to win and best players play. I think he has it in him but staying healthy is the key for his success.

CEH's best usage would be to have an even split of runs and targets. Rojo and Gore should be handling the bulk of the carries. Maybe Pacheco breaks through and takes some of those carries, but I'm not banking on it. I would like to see what RBs are gonna be available by the trade deadline. I don't think the RB room is as good as it can be

You can get RBs from anywhere.

Sure. I'm not saying stud RBs need to be drafted in the first round. I'm saying they're not fungible, and our offense isn't the same w/o one.
I think the NFL has swung too far in the "all RBs are basically interchangeable and replaceable" mantra. At least NFL pundits sure have. There could be some inefficiencies there to exploit - as in a cheap contract relative to a stud RB's actual value to the team. |

Added to the fact that you can find good ones every single year either in cheap free agency or thru the mid rounds of the draft and it's just not worth the investment. Elite RB's that can catch the ball are definitely great to have. I just wouldn't expound many resources trying to find one. |

Again, I'm not putting you in this category necessarily, but what drives me up the wall are fans who pine for Kareem Hunt but also say, "CEH was horrible from the start-- never draft RBs in the 1st round!" because they seem to be implying that Hunt was quite valuable to the team and its success, so if he was really all that irreplaceable, then why not spend the 32nd overall pick in an attempt to put the offense back in God mode? Is that any worse than the Colts spending the 6th overall pick on a goddamn guard in 2018, no matter how good he is? You can quibble with the player they chose, but if that's who the front office and scouts believed would do the trick, then doesn't it make sense? |

Picking a G at 6, even if he's a hall of famer, just isn't going to produce the value that you could get from a pass rusher or QB etc. Nelson is obviously a great player. But IIRC, he's been hurt and had some issues there that have kept him off the field. Well durability being a big selling point for a G I'd guess, is gonna be a problem. And no, CEH was never worth a first round pick. Even if he is/was what he was at LSU. He's not an elite athlete or a big play game breaking RB. |
