Love and Neal will be a great pair of RBs

I can’t wait for Love to be tackled in the backfield by a DT that tosses Ruiz aside as Rattler hands him the ball because Shough is injured and out for six weeks because of all the hits he takes behind this line.

But running back man. That’s how you win games! See Saquan in NY. Can’t miss!!!

How ‘bout you GFY, pal! A RB at pick 8 isn’t great value for a team as talent starved as us. You probably think the Bengals are a well built and well run organization. How’s that working out for them? All sizzle, no steak. Go pray for yourself!

Sweet melt but they aren’t picking a Guard top 10, so what’s your point?

They can’t pick a guard later? Get one in FA?

We have plenty of RB never waste a pick that high unless they are top 10 type guys. We need to dance with the one that brought us and continue beefing up the OL and DL inside. I would love to get Mansoor Delane to fall to us. The defense only needs a couple pieces but #1 corner is one. Then hopefully a good OL, DT or WR is there in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

It’s probably bad value, but Love seems like a game breaker at rb. If you really think he is a Saquon Barkley, Leveon bell, Adrian Peterson level guy, take him.

Shough, Love, Olave for the next 4-5 years is enough talent if paired with a good offensive coach and Oline.

Last time I checked a solid run game & play action off of it can be a young QB's best friend.

There aren’t many FA guards available this year. If you take an OL, you take the RT and move Fuaga to RG or LG. He’s been bad at RT.
If you don’t take a lineman, get a defensive playmaker like Downs or Reese or see what WR like Tate falls to us.

I don’t disagree that we don’t need to upgrade at RB, but RB at pick 8-10 is about the least value we can get to build around with all our needs. I’m all for taking Singleton or Price in the 3rd as an explosive back to pair with Neal and Estime.

Last time I checked, even the best running backs need better players around them to be successful.

Elite RBs get theirs regardless even behind average lines. That's why they are elite.

If KC and CIN win then we will 100% pick in the top 10.

Great. So we get to be the Giants with Saquan or Raiders with Josh Jacobs? Can’t wait.

I’m not saying we don’t need a better RB. I just disagree with that being the way to build a team.

Pass pro pick ups & YAC on check downs is very seldom discussed or analyzed but they are extremely important aspects of consistent offensive play. It's undervalued & underrated aspects that can be the difference of continuing a drive or a drive stalling.

Yes let’s pick another OL early. We are like 1 for 7 in the 1st rd so I bet this will be our year!
