RB has become a position of short term production. Good teams don’t spend high draft picks on a low return position in terms of career longevity, 2nd contract price increase and replaceability.

Yep. Draft 'em, let someone else pay them their second contract. IMO you should be drafting a mid-late round RV at least every other season. It's a churn and burn position. If you have an elite athlete kid who wants to play football, make sure he isn't playing RB.

That’s fine he’s the pick, I just wish it wasn’t leaked this soon. I would have liked to be surprised on draft night. 

Well, there's always the chance that the team does something crazy right before the draft and switches at the last minute.

Nothing is certain until the card is turned in. 

As confident as I am that it will be Young, there's going to be this little speck of anxiety over " will they change their mind at the mast minute?"

True or houston could offer the farm for the pick.

This isn’t really a great 1st round. More forgiveable to swing at one of the few elite talents in Robinson than it may normally be, especially since it will probably help them be competitive this season.

on the plus side, it will keep them competitive this season and probably in QB purgatory unless Ridder does what he statistically isn’t likely to do.

I think that's the most King has typed "Carolina" or "Panthers" in a single monday morning piece in at least six years.

Was he the one who go butt hurt when cam declined an interview with him because King talked poo about cam in the past?

Sure, some people won't be surprised now. But the flip side of that coin is if it's left a surprise, half the fanbase is going to be disappointed. I'm okay with leaking it (telegraphing it , bat-signaling it, whatever degree of transparency the FO goes with) now so deniers have at 4 days to cope and at least accept it by Thursday night, so we don't have a bunch of whiners in here bringing everyone down.

So was it 7 or 15" ? The drama is killing us!

A 7.5" turd and reported only took two wipes to get clean.  His agent attributes it to a healthy diet of leafy greens and soy milk he bought Trader Joe's last Wednesday at 5:34pm.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
