Barkley, Beckham, Sheppard and Evan Engram?
Just draft a couple lineman and we are going back to the playoffs!
I'll be shocked if the next pick isn't an OL. Need a pass rusher and CB in round 3 and this will be a great draft.

Exactly this, but Bradshaw was good too.
Yes that's right. Bradshaw was a thorn in my side for years.

USC went 10-3 and finished 3rd in the final rankings. They lost the first game of the season to Bama (1) and the 3rd to Stanford (7) and 4th to Utah (24). They then beat multiple ranked teams Colorado (21), Washington (4), and Penn State (5), where they scored 52 points and Darnold wen 33-53 for 452 yards and 5 touchdowns.
This is getting ugly. Just admit you were mistaken.
Based on record alone, the Pac-12 might’ve just had the worst bowl season ever

Not being able to pass the ball tends to hurt the running game as well.

I'm done. Cannot believe I wasted that much time defending a 2 time super bowl champion. For making me waste that time...you win.

I fixed it for you. All the stats I'm sure you have ready for me, you can shove. I love the pick.
I agree, he's crazy talented. Just doesn't make sense (IMO) to draft a RB that has a short shelf life in todays NFL. They just aren't that valuable and once they get to 26/27, they go downhill (for the most part). Its a passing league. The positive is that he can help in the passing game. When there are great backs available much later, I don't see how it makes sense. Guice is like a hair behind Barkley and still available.
Like Elliot, he will help the team. Just not a good allocation of resources.
Jacksonville just made the afc championship in large part because of fornette and the eagles won the super bowl with nick freaking foles but used ajayi and legarrate Blount to great effect.
The Steelers do nothing whenever Leveon bell goes down.
Look at what happened to the cowboys when Elliot was suspended.
The giants stink because they haven’t had a running game or O-line since Bradshaw and Jacobs were playing.
Running backs are far more important than people give them credit for being, especially in today’s game.

Cool, he still sucks now.

He “sucks” now because he had one of the worst running games and worst lines in football.
It’ll be great watching him Beckham, Barkley and engram shred the skins every year.
Hilarious.

I don't know about you, but I'm glad that Witten is retiring. He could make the HOF just by what he did against the giants all these years.

Eli has had 3 of the 4 best statistical seasons of his career in the last 4 years.
All of that with no running game and no offensive line. You just used TOTAL offense because you know even less about football than you do about basketball which is absolutely stunning.
What a drain!

He was a giant killer his entire career. I’ll buy his freaking microphone for him! Ha ha

Its wild they haven't been able to find a replacement for Witten as he's aged and his play has deteriorated. They have a decent shot at getting Goedert or Gesicki; I hope they don't!

Where is ODUCALFAN? need some inside info on our guys. Doesn't look like anyone's being drafted, so what is everyone's best guess about UDFA's?
Hope fully we hear something soon after the draft ends.

RE: NFL Draft Thread
Again, not a single ODU player drafted into the NFL. In fact, never a single player drafted into the NFL. When recruits visit other schools in CUSA and ask about ODU, do you think coaches mention that fact? It might have a very big affect on our recruiting.
