This is a rare moment when the Huddle was quite on point about the glaring issues regarding our center position and how it would bite this team hard if something bad happened.

Although at this point it's largely irrelevant due to the complete lack of a defense and other injuries.

 

Just one of those shrugs moments

Except that one player looks like he might be a 10+ year starting/possibly Pro Bowl player and the other is the guy we drafted.

I'm fine with taking a RB high as a special RB is still a franchise boost. I also know you can't build Rome in a day. This will take years. In this instance, we are building from less than scratch and a decade plus starter at center over a guy that is currently hurt, best back in draft or not, really was a head scratcher. But if Corbett doesn't get hurt, he was playing well, and this is not as big a deal. Every team is a decimating injury away from being ass out at one position. 

Upcoming draft this year, its hog molly time!

Of the top 15 RB's in rushing yardage this season, 7 are 1st or 2nd round picks and 8 are 3rd to UDFA.

This is why most smart teams that don't have an immediate need at RB don't draft RB's in the 1st or 2nd round.

Guess what we didn't have an immedate need for? Especially considering our 5th leading rusher in the NFL and 4th round draft pick is still on his rookie deal.

Another fun stat is the top 4 leading rookie rushers are from the 4th round or lower.

I have harped on this since the days we signed that idiotic CMC contract, smart teams don't spend crazy money or draft capital on RB's.

    • Cutting edge analysis below https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-s-top-50-2025-nfl-draft-prospect-rankings-4-0 You gotta remember, Daniel Jeremiah talks to the scouts and GMs..... Notable highlights: #1 Abdul Carter (Edge) #2 Travis Hunter (WR/CB) #3 Ashton Jeanty (RB) #4 Mason Graham (DT) #5:  Jalon Walker (LB) #6 Tyler Warren (TE) #7  Coltson Loveland (TE) #15 Nick Emannwori (S) #22 Mykel Williams (Edge) #32 Mason Taylor (TE--3 TEs in round 1????) WR rankings (oh my!!  This is going to piss some folks off--I don't think a slot WR--Egbuka--should be in the middle of round 1, personally) #16 Matthew Golden (told ya this a month ago!!--you mocked me, some scoffed) #17  Emeka Egbuka (the sleeper we have not talked about enough!) #18  Tetairoa McMillan (according to the NFL Network Path to the Draft Crew-Ross, Brooks, Charles-the comments may have hurt his stock among GMs--I do think it might be a bit overblown, but hey, he raised the red flag--nobody else.  I am sure he will explain his meaning to satisfy GMs) #33 Luther Burden III (he has dropped quite a bit) Noteable Edges NOT in top 50, which means they could be there in the second:  Jack Sawyer, Princely. and my super sleeper pick who could be there in round 3--Josaiah Stewart, Michigan. MHS PREDICTIONS: It sure looks like #5 Jalon Walker Edge will be the pick---Mykel Williams dropped to #22. Most of the players we draft on days 1 and 2 will have a first name that starts with the letter J.           
    • I feel like all the guys i think they're going to take will be gone. Graham and walker plus Carter who has no chance. If that's the case I really hope someone wants to jump the saints and we can trade back. I would want Green if he didn't have the accusations 
    • I think with walker you have a pretty stable and decent floor.   With some of the others the floor is lower but yeah the ceiling is the roof.   We just cant risk that as a franchise at this point
