That's been happening since last night. Sigh.

It is funny seeing people get upset over a 4th rounder and the consensus can't decide if this was BPA or not. We definitely needed another rotational RB.

This is an unbelievable RB draft, I'm glad we're not waiting for it to become a need before we take advantage of how good these guys are. Instant upgrade over the Blackshear spot. Returner, capable backup to both Chuba and Dowdle. Like it a lot.

More upset at not taking more important positions (oline depth, db, lb) than a RB who will at best be the #3 rb on our team. Debatable that he was the best available and may have been around later.

Etienne's tape was nothing spectacular IMO, and that's with a good Georgia oline

I liked what I saw of him in college, but do we need to be 3 deep at HB?

Yes

This was probably the pick I liked the least but apparently he doesn’t have any flaws in his game, is a solid back all around and is only 20 so he could really improve.

He honestly has a nice vision/quickness combo skillset.  Makes solid moves when he gets to the second level to evade LBs and box safeties.  I'm kind of digging him.

Good receiving back, which we don't have, and averaged 5.6 ypc over 3 years in the SEC.  Maybe he's the inverse of his brother - not the college stud, but turns into one in the NFL.
