Mango Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Can't wait to spend another 3rd on this guy. As the saying goes, "If you don't draft 3 running backs in the 3rd round over 4 years the watermelon won't grow in the apple field next November" 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any 1st rd pick at any position should benefit our team….. Do you think that Josh was our leading ground gainer because Singletary isn’t good enough to be? Our OL couldn’t run block for **** for the first 2/3 of the year. That’s why he was our leading ground gainer (mixed with the fact that we used a 3rd rd pick on Moss and hadn’t given up on him. We had a Rb by committee backfield). I don’t think there’s any chance we use our 1st rd pick on a RB this year. najee average 3.9 ypc. motor 4.6. Why? Because the Steelers OL sucks. Ours will do if we continue to bandaid it Najee still impacted games!! Motor did not. Defenses game planned for Najee. KC was able to help their line in the 5th rd. This draft is deep with offensive linemen. Not so in game changing RBs Edited March 11, 2022 by Solomon Grundy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy or Devin Singletary? He's 5'9' 210 and has "moments of passivity when headed between tackles while tapping brakes into traffic" I don't understand what traits this guy brings that we don't already have. We need the fastest RB in the draft or a guy that can break tackles consistently and Borghi is neither. This would be another wasted pick, no thanks plenty of 4.4-4.3 guys in this draft. I don't care about his quickness and making guys miss, this NFL and you need to either run over or run by guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Last thing the Bills need to do is waste another pick in their top 3-4 on a RB, this guy would not push Singletary and most likely plays special teams. I told never to stay away from Cody Ford and not buy the hype on him and Bills went ahead passed a superstar Metcalf who has world class speed for Cody who may not even be on this team this season. There was to many very fast 4.3-4.4 guys in this draft and that is what this team needs to add this offseason to the RB position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Beane would do it , but a guy can dream! He makes his own holes compared to Borghi who was running thru massive holes or catching passes in the flat. Huge difference in burst and quickness between the two. Borghi will struggle imho in the NFL but may have a role as a third down back, whereas Hall has bona fide NFL speed and is a three down back. I heard some draft Guys and people on NFL network saying he would be great for the dolphins at the bottom of the first round ( Baldinger really liked him there and thought he helped himself at the combine tremendously but also had great film) . This would be a huge talent to put with Josh, and have motor as his backup and moss just for insurance. It’s been a huge missing piece , and so many great qbs have been derailed getting a Lombardi by lacking a supporting running game, as we all know the history of Elway, Marino, and Manning when they lacked run support. We don’t need to take the crucial Carrie’s from Josh or minimize our passing game , we just need an EFFECTIVE threat and this guy looks like he can pick up yards despite backfield contact and has big play speed for the short passing game. Thx for posting that ; we need offensive speed and our cb/ dl needs can be met in FA and later rounds, as can wr depth which is deep in the draft. Not too many backs with that speed and power and I wish Beane would quit trying. to just make do at the Rb position. and help protect his best investment , Josh. He has underperformed getting talent there as well as the DL so far A good back can make an o line look a lot better as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got the speed to go with that vision as well. Would totally be fine using our 2nd round pick on him. I wouldn’t even be mad if we took him at 25, considering he’s better than Etienne IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team that used their first rd pick to trade for an OT….AND used their 2nd rd pick on a C……AND by making an OG the highest paid OG in the league. The team that used a 1st rd pick on a Rb and 💯 regrets that move…..But let’s just mention the one guy who happened to slip in the draft. You said Motor didn’t impact games…. You must’ve missed week 14 on. He played very well and most definitely impacted games. you want a stud RB in a league where stud running backs never win Super Bowls. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/history-shows-high-priced-running-backs-may-not-be-a-part-of-super-bowl-winning-formula/amp/ Look at the running backs that were good enough to win the super bowl.

CDogg20 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 CMC light. I remember hearing a story this CFB season about how he works out and trains with CMC. Was recruited to Stanford as well but chose Washington because he wanted to pave his own path. If we can get him a little later i’d be ok with this but i’m hoping he can be had in the 3rd or later. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
