TMC ran circles around you. You are the polar opposite. He was good at talent eval, you suck at it.

You've got a memory like Joe Biden, TMC won't even come back. He has his own draft review, which he sold for money. If you want to laugh, pick one up sometime.

I agree, the Steelers should run it more often.

Watch the BC game against Clemson. AJ Dillon disappears. Clemson made him look average. The NFL will do the same.

So based on one game against one of the better defenses of college football the last 5-6 years, you're diagnosing his entire career? Last I checked, he'll also be playing on the offensive side of the ball with other pro-quality football players, not boston college players

And Jonathan Taylor in the first game against Ohio State ran for a whopping 52 yards at an incredible 2.6 avg - behind Wisconsin's vaulted OL. While J.K Dobbins ran for 163 with an 8.2 avg in the same game. Apples to oranges? Maybe, maybe not. Point is, all players have off games or where the particular match-up is not great. I bet Jim Brown had bad days... was he a bad back?
 
My point wasn't just one game, sorry if it came across as such. My point was that his body of work is against mediocre competition and he looks fantastic. Bettis-like even. But the one game were he faced top tier competition he didn't do much at all. Granted, he doesn't have the OL that he'll have in the pros, but even on runs where he had holes he wasn't running over Clemson's ILB or Safeties either. Hope I'm wrong about the kid, but I don't see him being THE guy in the NFL.
 
Taylor’s fumbles worry me a bit but he is the best RB in this draft. He has vision and power to run inside and he has the speed to give you big plays. If he can’t overcome the fumble issues then he won’t be a starter for long.

My safest bet is Edwards-Helaire. He doesn’t have great speed but he has great instincts, can make guys miss and is a natural receiver. He can be a 3 down RB.

I’m lukewarm on Dobbins. He doesn’t make too many guys miss and for his size, he’s not breaking as many tackles as he should.

Swift has huge upside but my concern is that he wasn’t always consistent behind a great Georgia OL. I’m not sure he can be a true #1 RB with 20 carries per game. That’s fine for the steelers needs though because Swift would be a perfect fit along with Conner or Snell.

I like Patrick Taylor from Memphis. He has size and speed and could be a late round steal.

Didn't t I tell you Josh Jones wasn't first round material? Easy call, and No i don't care if media people said he was going in round 1.

The best news is there are plenty go good running back on the board. If the Steelers pick a running back in round two, they should try to trade Conner for a draft pick.

IMO, Taylor is the best choice and will convert in the red zone.

easy Hell you know nothing about the man

you claimed he was a third round talent....

everyone stated he was late first early second...even me.....so shut the **** up asshat

and Miami reached for a player they could have gotten later at OT....as has been said many times, the draft is a crapshoot....
 
Like someone doing hundreds of hours of research shouldn't be paid for it?

A guy with a luxury car should understand the value of being paid for your skills...
 
No way I take Dillon in the 2nd round and if we don't take a RB in the 2nd round then it makes no sense to take one at all. We need a 3 down feature back, not someone else to add to our rotation.
 
Taylor is a powerful runner. I would love to have him in Pittsburgh. Run the ball, control the clock, that improves your defense. Drafting Taylor you get 2 for 1..

My son goes to Ohio State. I've seen Dobbins in person. And I have his jersey.

Therefore, he is our pick. Because of these very important reasons. I've let the Steelers draft room know.

You read it here first.

And if I'm wrong, it won't be the last time.
