LeGOATski Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 But....this is the Bills. A RB will be taken with the first pick.
CommonCents Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Chris Ivory is RB2 I'm not so convinced they shouldn't draft one.
Green Lightning Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Not worried about it. Plenty of time yet to pick up running backs. We're just going to ride Shady this year anyway and can draft his replacement next year.
Jay_Fixit Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 (Looks at ages of the RB’s and says to himself, the depth itself is a........SMOKESCREEN). 1

hondo in seattle Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 We're good this year. But at some point (next year?) we must draft McCoy's replacement. With only so many touches to go around drafting that guy too soon is a bit of a waste. But drafting that guy too late would be an even bigger problem.
Sweats Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Maybe they should grab a RB..........no one would ever see that coming. And then draft a punter with our #22 pick. I say that if we're going all in on a roster re-haul, then go all in and give us a fans something to complain about again cause the moves the FO has been making lately is giving us nothing to biotch about anymore.........and having nothing to complain about is definitely new territory for us Bills fans.

bmur66 Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Shady making it thru the entire year in 2017 was unexpected. Ivory will have in chance in 2018. Need someone good behind him. That person is not on the list.
Solomon Grundy Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Hey Roadhack, this draft is so deep at RB the Bills can get one as a UDFA. Trust the process. 4 minutes ago, DCOrange said: I don't like this.
BuffaloRebound Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 A lot of signals Bills are trading into the top 5 for a QB, but this might be the most obvious. Rookie QB's best friend is a vet RB.

Chris Ivory is Fred Jackson. Hard-nosed, good in the hole, good after first contact. Statistically, he had two subpar (for him) seasons at Jacksonville, but so did their starting running backs. As we know, Bortles was sometimes their best ball carrier. Yes, he could be burned out, but I don't think so. This will be his 8th season, and he's averaged only about 160 carries per season. Plus Cadet and Jones, Bills are fine at running back. If McCoy goes down, it's a problem of course. But you're not going to have a McCoy-type backup. 1
Dkollidas Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 I’ll take this over drafting Guice at 12 or something past regimes would’ve done. Ivory is a solid experienced hard-nosed guy. Cadet showed flashes, especially catching out of the backfield. Jones showed well as a special teamed last season. Marcus Murphy showed a bit of flash in limited snaps in the Miami game, but maybe he has upside. Overall im fine with it. This is a league where guys continuously become good running backs out of nowhere, so I’m happy that they’re covering their bases in order to go hunt for a quarterback.
YoloinOhio Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Good. There is so much RB depth in this draft there is no need to use a high pick. I think there will be future starters in the 4th-5th rd. marcus Murphy is on the depth chart today but may or may not make the team. He was a PS guy who got brought up for the last 2 games due to injury only. Jones is a ST guy. It’s Shady, Ivory and Cadet and they will add a rookie. Looks perfectly set up.

nucci Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 it shouldn't be a priority..I was told told they're a dime-a-dozen and you can get great RBs in 7th round anytime you need one
