Yeldon, Langford, and Ajayi

[CATCH17]

The more I watch these guys the more I like them.

Initially I thought of all 3 as just blah players but after watching full games of all 3 instead of just highlights I'm impressed by these guys.

Yeldon and Ajayi both move a pile.


Yeldon is just really good at everything and is always going forward after contact and is just perfect for what we do.

Ajayi looks like a MB3 clone.

Langford has good size, amazing feet, vision, and speed.




Btw, Melvin Gordon was my favorite RB coming into the draft and I just gotta say I'm not sold on him anymore for some reason. He just doesn't look good running in traffic to me like these 3 guys do.

 

[Gaede]

I was really sleeping on Langford. That's the exact type of guy we need--good at everything, gets better as the game goes on. Great vision and feel for the game, will get the tough yards. Like him a lot

I don't know what it is, but I am not a fan of Ajayi. I know he's athletic, had great production--he's got everything you need. But there's something that bothers me--propensity to run it outside? I'm not sure what it is. Maybe he just looks too big for a rb, I'm not sure.

Yeldon--I like him too. Great feet. Those little footsteps he takes are weird to look at but he can change direction with them w/out losing too much speed. Again, like Ajayi, he looks too tall to me. That kind of bothers me.

Better late than never guys! Langford is the real deal but is flying under the radar due to all the big name backs in the media. (Gordon, Gurley, etc..)
The beauty of it is, I think we can get Langford at the end of the 4th round. Awesome value for sure.

Im really turning into am Ajayi fan. I think he runs for 1,300 as a rookie behind our line. I want to like Yeldon, but I just dont trust Bama backs

I think when all is said and done Langford is a 3rd. I think with tape him and Buck Allen are going to rise above guys like David Johnson

 

[tm1119]

Replace Yeldon with Buck Allen and they are my 3 choices outside of Gurley in the 1st

 

[supercowboy8]

Coleman is my guy. Best RB in the draft IMO. But if I can get Ajayi, Yeldon, or Langford in the 3rd I would take that.

DL, LB and CB might be better picks in the 1st 2 rounds.

 

[Picksix]

There are a number of really good RB's in this draft. The key is finding one that fits our system. I'm a Hoosier, so I'm biased toward Coleman. But there are others that could fit and produce just as well, if not better.

Buck Allen, Ajayi, and Johnson outside of Gurley.

Ajayi looks good but he looks a lot like Ryan Williams with less ability.

I like Coleman as well.

Watch any video of Yeldon.

The guy finishes runs. He's very similar to Murray but with vision.

You watch a lot of these guys and when they get hit they go down on the spot.

Gurley and Yeldon fall forward on almost every play.

 

[Aikmaniac]

I'm liking Yeldon more and more.

 

[locked&loaded]

Keep in mind Yeldon wasnt even the best RB on his team last year.

 

[AsthmaField]

I'm right there with you and Ajayi. The guy has everything he needs to succeed in the NFL. Size, moves, power, toughness. I would be A-OK with him.

 

[fishspill]

Keep in mind Yeldon wasnt even the best RB on his team last year.

Argument could be made that Gurley wasn't either.

 

[DFWJC]

I'm more in the line with this thinking.
If a really good defensive player is sitting there at 27, I feel pretty good about us still getting a good RB later....and I prefer it.

Just saw a mock that put Gordon to us at 27 and they said he'd be the ROY front-runner if that happened!
I'm confused anyway...

 

[Tezz]

A little buzz of Yeldon possibly being 2nd RB drafted and Bucky Brooks said evaluators compare playing style to Le'veon Bell

 

[Hardline]

I wasn't too impressed with that Yeldon video.I hope it wasn't intended as a selling point.

 

[bodi]

Yeldon or Langford
I take either one
