I’m here and I’m doing fine. My talent evaluation was spot on, life happens. 

That's the problem with taking a chance on a running back in the first round.  Even if they're as good as advertised they usually are more injury prone relative to other positions and have a shorter shelf life.

No one denied that he was a great back.  Walker looks even better.  
 

The argument for not taking him starts with positional value.  One of the reasons RB has a lower positional value is injury risk to pair with rarely getting what you pay for in a 2nd contract / shorter careers.  
 

But you knew this.  You just love the Rb position and enjoy watching stud RBs run.  Me too.  Watching a great rb is like watching a great artist at work.  Magical.  But winning a SB and building a great team for sustained success is easier done not drafting a RB in rd 1.

Top speed of 21.87 mph:

 

"...Hall gutted the Denver defense with a 62-yard touchdown in the first quarter, reaching a maximum speed of 21.87 mph -- the fastest this season by any ballcarrier, according to Next Gen Stats. On his second run after the touchdown, he landed awkwardly after being tackled by a cluster of players in front of the Jets' sideline.   ..."

He was on a tear.  Tough break.

 

*I just re-read this and cringed.  Yikes.  No pun intended, I swear.  I wanted the Bills to draft Breece.  Genuinely feel bad for him. 

 

 

I would have LOVED for the Bills to draft Breece. But he was LONG gone by the time I would have made that move.

It's pretty crazy how players you wouldn't expect to reach those speeds can reach those speeds
