Around the NFL

No clue where to post some stuff not necessarily team related but could be? Feel free to delete if this belongs somewhere else.



Maxx and Parsons would be nasty. I probably wouldn’t pay the price though.

Uhm what?!! That is precisely what I said. I said that you choose the other positions over RB because they’re that much more valuable. That RB isn’t worth a top half of the first-round pick. & except for rare cases, not even back half of the first round.

Originally, you typed, "early pick". Now you've finally added clarity on what you meant. Granted, this can be considering moving the goal posts, but I'll engage the topic anyway.

Top half of the first round, that's a much better assessment, but it's still incorrect. K9, James Cook and Derrick Henry are the only backs that would qualify while also being good enough to compare to the others. However, the majority of the best RBs in the NFL were drafted in the top half of the first round.

RBs in this new era are a PREMIUM position, and you are much more likely to get one by spending a top pick. Also, I want to be clear that I consider any pick in the top 50 an "early" pick (as well as most analysts). Hell, I don't see how someone can debate any pick in the first round being anything other than an "early" pick, but I digress.

Maybe a better question would be, who in Jeanty's class should have been drafted instead of him? Because I see Jeanty as the best RB in his class (even though I personally wanted Gordon).

rare rb type that are both running and rec threats r going in the top 10 picks these days ...the league is realizing that good rbs are very hard to find and big time contributors in many cases this yr id say walker,bijan and gibbs was more important to their teams then the qb,de,cb or even wr on those teams

As I said in a post about a week ago, it’s not whether we agree or disagree. It’s how you make your arguments. It’s also about when you’re wrong. Admit you’re wrong. It’s also about willing to be corrected. It’s also about being nice to other people. A few people here don’t know when they’ve crossed the line.

You trying to remove all testosterone in here again?

Anyway, Ill gladly admit when Im wrong if it ever happens. As it is, I dont know that feeling yet

It's not hormones man. But if you think being macho about your posts is the way to go, I don't know what to say. No, it is about logic, accurateness, courtesy, not being a troll, being stubborn, arguing for the sake of arguing, etc. Let's be honest, it is for the state of the Forum that there are always a few posters that drive almost everyone crazy. They usually bring on a time-out or ban all by themselves but meanwhile, they make the Forum less of a fun place to visit and to want to express their opinions or suggestions.

Have you noticed that essentially the same people are the ones being cut off (posts deleted) or suspended? Hmmmm…

The Broncos offense was ass the majority of times for three quarters & then played lights out in the 4th last year. Denver is not that good. A ferocious pass rush & overall good defense was their strength and that's not showing up the same this year.

On another topic, to me an elite back is someone who can make you miss, run you over & run by you. Size, speed, agility, etc. Catching ability & pass blocking are key but a guy who can take a hand off the entire distance of the field/outrun DB's & also run someone over is a fuckin luxury to have & is a difference maker. No other skill position player touches the ball as much as a back

Oh the golden boy isn’t so golden
