Which running back do you want?

[Brooksey]

I think they will take Brooks at 56 after talking to the doctor and Tashard Choice and Jerry’s grandson.

I don't like Brooks coming off the ACL

If they take him, they better be right. It was supposed to be a clean tear with a quick recovery.

 

[Floatyworm]

I really don't like the backs in this draft.

I think of all of them I'd be most happy with Bucky Irving or Blake Corum.

Both of them are too small....and we already got a midget that can't pass block

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

If the options of Benson, Brooks, or Wright are off the board, I wouldn’t be against Braelon Allen in R3 (no earlier though).

If the board is wiped out I would like to see us take a guy like Rasheen Ali and pair him with Dowdle. I’m not a believer in Duece as a legitimate contributor.

You are likely going to have to use your 2nd for one of the first three.

If they are forced to go Allen in the 3rd, I understand it given their literally zero effort to improve the TB position in FA, but I won't be a fan. Refuses to run the 40, bad testing overall............ I get that testing isn't the end all be all but this guy strikes me as a relatively low level athlete compared to similar rated players.

 

[805BoysInBlue]

Emani Bailey, Jaylen Wright, Trey Benson.

Yeah, his testing numbers (vert and broad) are eerily similar to Zeke’s. It’s weird, all I’ve heard about Allen the past two years is what an athletic freak he was supposed to be. That said, I think he’s an adequate athlete for a power back and in R3 I’m okay with it.

I’m actually okay with going RB in R2 because it’s such a critical need for our offense and value (whomever we draft will get a ton of reps), unlike drafting a blocking TE.

Fifth Round please.......................

He's also experienced at WR

With no injury history I really like Brooks game. He’s a do it all guy that I think could step in day 1 and be a quality starter.

Due to the injury history though Benson is my RB1.

After those 2 I think it’s flavors of ice cream. I’m a fan of Lloyd, Wright and Allen.Also realllllly like the kid from Purdue.

My fear is there is a run on the backs and Benson and Wright and Brooks are off the board by their 2nd round pick, they get desperate and take Allen or even Estime in a panic move.

Wonder if he could be an option at both positions. The way we are going we need the flex guys to fill in whatever hole we create in free agency. Right now, we could use a No. 3 receiver (possibly a No. 2) and a No. 1 or No. 2 RB.

 

[ChuckA1]

I'm hoping for a very good ground and pound type.

 

[Beaker42]

1 Brooks
2 Wright
3 Benson

You need to flip 1 and 3

 

[Beaker42]

Brooks has the least mileage and is only 20 years old.

And one good leg.

I would think the ambiguity would create some confusion on the defense and he should have some good route running skills and hands out of the backfield.

What really matters is how the boys view them.

What do you think of Benson's legs?
