NFL: ***2022 NFL Draft Thread***

[3TrueFans]

Is Curtis Martin their last star runningback?

They had an old Ladainian Tomlinson for a year.

That's the point. Even when you have an elite running back, the statistical difference isn't that much. Take Dalvin Cook, who you mentioned before. Last year, in games he played in, the Vikings averaged 113 rushing yards per game. In the 4 games he missed? They averaged 115 rushing yards per game.

Now, obviously I'm not advocating that they'd be better off without him, but it's not hard to see why many teams are looking at numbers like that and coming to the conclusion that spending high picks on rbs does not provide a great ROI compared to other positions.

So.. yards per game is the only parameter?

How about converting 3rd and short to keep drives alive? You want the elite back or the backup?

How many TD's scored? You want the elite RB or the backup?

When you want to impose your will against another defense and wear them down... you want the elite back or the backup?

There are present and past RBs that have made a huge difference in games. That is why they should be drafted in the 1st round.

First TE finally off the board. Trey McBride from Colorado St. to the Cardinals.

That’s a fast track Breece should hit some home runs.

Lol. Ok, man. Were you going to let the league office know, or did you want me to? Because they don't seem to have been informed of your suggestion.

Apparently Aaron Rodgers murdered somebody.

Breece! Breece is in Vegas! Have fun, young man.

 

[JP4CY]

Breece on the stage!

 

[CRcyclone6]

Hall with his moment!! Awesome!

Interesting to hear the Jets tried to get back into the 1st round to get Breece last night, but it just didn't work.

Yeah that was really interesting. Love his confidence speaking too.
Also, how cool is it that he went out to the crowd and was hanging out with the Jets fans.

Breece, you're the best!

That makes zero sense. They already have Ertz and Maxx Williams. Kliff isn’t exactly known for TE usage.

 

[somecyguy]

No QB off the board in the 2nd round. Can't say I expected that. I thought for sure someone would take a shot at one of them.

Breece just said a team tried trading into the 1st round to take him, but the trade didn't go through.

I thought he said the Jets tried. At least it worked in Rd 2.

 

[Rabbuk]

who is the younger white guy at the desk?

I just heard him on the radio and he wouldn't say what team it was.

For those of you watching NFL Network, the green tank top lady

If you're watching NFL Network, I'm assuming Pete Schraeger?
