  So you think CMC is a better back than Barkley? Haven’t you learned about trusting your eyes to scout players. 

He’s a better receiving back not a better inside runnner

what state is this farm in?

 That’s great. But who would you choose? You’re the GM, you’re on the clock, both are there. Who you taking?

Barkleybecause he bigger and stronger than cmc. I was a little underwhelmed by his college rush production Many teams shut him down

  That will happen when the OL sucks and the entire defense is focused on you. But he was still the leading Heisman candidate for the first half of the year. And he had more than double the receiving yards that CMC had his SR year. So I wouldn’t claim a large advantage in that area. 

  Despite your eyes, he’s the best RB prospect since AP. College stats mean next to nothing towards evaluating a prospect. Context is the key.

Barkley looks great but no, not selling the farm based on the position he plays... can find very good players at that position when our pick comes up or in later rounds.

[Chief Keek]

No, too many positions that have to be addressed at the moment.

[WOW!!]

No...

So the dude suggesting we trade up for Barkley isn’t trolling, but I am? Got it

For all the talk of Guice,  other than a 4.49 40, he isn't showing up as a top performer in any of the other drills. 

Chubb is  showing really well,  and Michel didn't disappear. 

Now before someone says, "But the tape,  the tape,  the tape..." I'd say that they all have some good tape,  but the latter are showing something more at the Combine also. 

@LordOfDaWingz

I'm saying it right now: Both Chubb and Michel > Guice. 

I’m actually fine with chubbs in the 3rd, or michel. Still got guys like penny and balange(?) who are also having a good combine 

I like guices attitude tho, saying all the right things 

[run-run-pass-punt]

I wouldn't do a "Ditka" for any single player. Players get hurt, players bust and evaluation is an inexact science. Numbers matter when projections can be wildly inaccurate. You have to mitigate risk to an extent, and throwing all your chips in on one player is a sure way to elevate risk to unhealthy levels, potentially putting your organization in an unnecessarily precarious position.

4 looks like his floor. And many believe he is that once in a generational talent. And I know the chances of us making a move this drastic are out of this world but,humor me.. given the state of the team, and what it would take to move up to say 4. Would you be willing to pull a mike ditka sans Ricky Williams for Barkley? (It’s the off-season and we have no owner or gm...sorry)

I see what you’re saying and it may be tempting but as others have said , for the most part no one is worth that ... plus ...no offense,  anyone that uses “sans” I can’t trust.

I hear you but only one of those backs has 3 games in SEC play with 250 yards or more and despite this combine, nearly all analyst agree that Guice will be taken before any UGA back. Chubbs and Michel just got more spotlight bc of their winning this season.

 

Furthermore, if the combine was an indication to on-field success a lot of backs would be HOFers

I wasn’t trying to sell you anything so you don’t have to trust me. This was just a discussion.

I didn’t suggest nothing this was a discussion in the “offseason” about the best player in the draft. It has happened before from the example I even acknowledged the chances of this happening not being realistic but instead of have fun with the discussion you come in and take it literal.
