T.J. Yeldon

[IAmLegend]

..is my RB of choice this draft. Been saying it since November. Draft this guy in the 2nd or 3rd and spend the rest of the drat picks on Defense.

Cowboys love inside zone runs. Of the RBs in the draft, I'd look at TJ Yeldon as a very good fit for them.

Spoke to highly respected scouting source who says Crimson Tide's TJ Yeldon looks a lot like #Eagles RB DeMarco Murray. #Cowboys #Cardinals

Very meh.

 

[RoboQB]

I'm on board with this...... Yeldon could be 2015 ROY.

 

[Gaede]

I like him. Don't think he'll be a star, but a good player for 4 or 5 years.

 

[rags747]

Im much more excited with Coleman, I hope Red's Alabama connection doesnt sway him. Would feel like Carpenter all over again.

 

[reddyuta]

he is one guy who really gives me the bust vibes.

 

[supercowboy8]

Yeldon is really beat up. Running for 3 years in the sec he has taken a pounding. Also he has fumble issues.

He's flying WAY under the radar: you could be right.

He needs to drop weight and get some of the quickness he once had back. Doesn't look explosive to me

That's where I am on him. Think he needs to be around 221lbs (which he did on his pro day and ran 4.52), if he is I think he's a top five back in this draft.

Like him a lot more than Buck Allen, and Johnson.

His 2013 game footage was really good. The question on him are why did he have a down year in 2014 and is he injury prone in terms of nagging type injuries (hamstring, groin, etc.). Also Alabama RBs have tended to be overrated.

always liked this kid...2nd or 3rd (likely doesn't last that long) on him and I am on board...

Yeldon in 3rd is good value. But dang, that Alabama OL was a beast.

 

[fishspill]

He had a line that won a lot of battles but there's no denying Yeldon looks like he has a great game. If he has that drive to be great he'll be a bargain for who gets him.

 

[visionary]

Give me Coleman or Johnson in rd 3

He only had 2 fumbles this past season.

 

[supercowboy8]

No he only lost 2 this year. Also he was limited this year due to a knee injury. He's been beat up and abused alot at Bama.

haven't seen that backs from Alabama have transitioned well to the pros. Yeldon looks the same as all the rest to me so...pass
