And I really wouldn't put Martin in that group either. Now, Bo didn't have the career of Sanders, Smith, Brown, etc. but I think it's undeniable that he was a generational runner back, even with his limited body of work. But, I don't think Watters or Martin belong in the conversation about generational running backs, and I don't care what stats they accumulated. Because if those two were on that level, then Frank Gore would be too, and while he is a freak of nature still playing RB after all these years, he is just not on those others player's level. But, it's just an opinion. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

Saquon is stuck with the 2nd worst team in the league three years running. Pretty tough to evaluate him right now. If the Chiefs could've taken him, you wouldn't have taken him? |

I would never take a RB in the top 10. Ever. |

Whoa, I didn't say top 5, did I? I thought I said somewhere in the top 20.

Well then I guess I'm on the other side of the fence. Because if I had a top 10 pick and Marshall Faulk/Barry Sanders/LT/Bo Jackson falls to me (and I needed a RB), I'd take him instantly.

Just keep that same energy if a damn good fatty is there at 32. A lot of times 32 is no mans land kind of like this year. Nobody really sexy was available except at a position that’s discounted.
If we got an IOL who was playing as good as Osemele was for cheap for 5 years nobody here would bitch about it. It really comes down to ensuring your pick is a hit and not another Breeland Speaks. But hey when your staff is hitting on several picks throughout the draft like we did this year you gain a lot of flexibility.

Or if we want to make this simpler: do you think CM would be more or less efficient in Andy's offense? Would CM's numbers overall be better or the same if he faced 90% light boxes like he would in the Chiefs offense? |

Building around a RB just doesn't work in this version of the NFL. Taking a RB that high is pretty much guaranteeing you're going to have too much emphasis on running the ball.

Now, if the scenario is "we're building a team from the ground up and we have a top 5 pick," then no, I don't take even a generational RB there because i don't even have an OL probably. To take an RB in the top 5 you at least have to have an OL, at least a mid-tier QB, at least a couple decent receivers. You can build a quality defense in three years, but you'd have to have all those other things to make the RB pick make sense. |

Idk, I just think guys have a great chance to reach their ceiling as players in Kansas City right now, so whoever they pick, I will have confidence in said player. If its a center, awesome. |

I still wouldn't take a RB. I'd take one or even two later. |

I just don't see adding a depth player with a top 15-20 pick. Depth players can be found in almost any lower round. A generational/near-generational RB not so much. |

Taking an RB in round one usually is not good. They just don't affect wins and losses enough to do it. WR same thing. The best backs we have had were not 1st rounders.
