Or three.

I never want to see Ezekiel Elliott carry the football for this team again.

I'm not sure where jeanty goes but I saw some of his film for the first time the other day. I'll just say wow, I'd like to see them make a good bowl game or playoff to see how he does against a quality DL.

Skattebo is a real package. 5' 11", 215 lb. Runs incredibly hard. Can catch.
I would think he could be had 4th round or later.

1st Ashton Jeanty Boise State

2nd Tre Veyon Henderson Ohio State

Kaleb Johnson Iowa

I really think they should take one of the top backs in the draft. Either take Jeanty in the 1st or take a dlineman in the 1st and take Henderson or Johnson in the 2nd. They might even take 2 backs in this draft.

I'd say 3rd to 4th round is the RB sweet spot. You can find a bell-cow stud in the second, but you can find a decent starter or committee guy a little later. We'll see who's available there by draft season.

Jeanty looks freaking special. He will go very early and deserves to. Broken tackles is one of the most predictive stats for college RBs to the pros, and I don't think I've ever seen anyone break tackles like Jeanty. He pulls off a Beast Quake level touchdown run literally every week.

problem is what can break tackles in College does not do so well in the pros
a lot of college power backs fail in the pros

Unless you’re playing the Cowboys and their excellent shoulder only tackling technique
