Derrick Henry may be out for the season now. Investing big in rbs is looking more and more dicey in the nfl these days.

 

Abdullah was a great signing, really liked the up tempo dual rb threat with Chuba. Solid 2 running back rotation for under $2 million. 49ers and Bears have been doing the same thing with cheap backups/rookies

I was referring to his new contract but yeah they got an excellent return on their draft value there. Unreal that Bradberry was our only successful pick that year.

Didn’t see he signed a 50 mill contract last year. Yikes. Although if I had to bet for a rb to be worth a 2nd contract it would’ve been Henry just based on how he’s built. He’s like the Cam of rbs.

Traditionally big backs tend of have shorter careers. Henry definitely earned his money but I am still generally against spending wildly on a RB in thr modern NFL.

The Tennessee situation is a little different in that their offense is largely completely built around Henry. Which....that isn't a smart way to build an offense, IMO.

It’s not at all but Henry is freakish which is why I said if I absolutely had to bet it would’ve been on Henry. Obviously that’s not working out lol

Yeah, that usage rate is just insane and Henry is such a physical carrier. That just isn't sustainable unless Henry is just one of those rare freaks that doesn't break down.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
