Still waiting for youto refute my many points on him. I've posted them multiple times and I don't think I've ever seen you respond.
Sorry man, haven't seen you post anything other than Fournette ran for 1 ypc against Alabama and Zeke ran for a bazillion... We're talking about 3 different teams(LSU, Ohio State and Alabama) and two different players(Zeke and Fournette) that have nothing to do with Barkley... what am I missing here?

tap your brakes just a little Poe, he's not a pass pro back like Zeke, test is coming https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-spt-silver-football-saquon-barkley-nfl-future-20171207-story.html from june https://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/penn-state-football-comparing-saquon-barkley-to-recent-1st-round-rbs-051717

A lobotomy.
Two more first round picks to start with?
-
A good first take on Mayfield.
...and I'm only bringing this up because I know a lot of you guys think you need to burn the #1 on a QB. You can EASILY take Barkley 1st without give NY/Colts a chance at him, then turn around and take the QB not named Frozen Rosen or Ronald Darnold.

One mock draft had us taking Mayfield 1st and Barkley 4th. You have to ask yourself are the teams drafting 2nd and 3rd all set at QB? And, will they ever have a better chance to nail their version of pick of the litter at QB (especially when/if Mayfield isn't their #1 QB). In honor of silly season kicking off - If we DID pick Mayfield 1st overall - this pushes the Rosen One and Darnold Duck-HerecomesBosaagain to the 2nd and 3rd team. Now Cleveland has their pick of the litter for whatever player/position they want to go after. This scenario means Barkley will be there at #4 if our FO wants him. At this time I hope they don't want him. There's still good RBs after round 1. Dorsey was in the FO that drafted Kareem Hunt in round 3 so he understands this as well as anyone. Meanwhile, Alvin Kamara was also drafted in round 3.
The last time we got bullied into a RB was when we held the 4th overall pick and traded up to #3 to draft Trent Richardson. At the time, it sure seemed like a lot of well paid draft analysts told us that was a great pick. I'll fess up, I was right there with you thinking Richardson was an ideal pick. That's why I never bust your balls about the guy. That said, I do hope we can learn from our mistakes and realize the draft rarely ever runs out of very good RBs after round 1.

Andy was boss! A great talent but also a strange individual.....I loved man on the moon, wife doesn't really get it.

I see Guice and Johnson as very similar players, Guice a better runner but Johnson the better receiver.

Calling out dissimilarities demonstrates their similarity?
I'm answering you're "questions" by telling you to watch the games for yourself. Watch the way the player moves, how he reacts, his knowledge of the game, reading defenses, effecting defenses even without getting touches... and doing this without complaining about touches or carries or stats.
So which game best demonstrates each of the five qualities you list in your learned opinion?

I bet Jags fans are happy their team didn't listen to the "Don't take a RB high in the 1st round, cause it's just a waste of a pick because you can find a good RB any time you want" stuff.
-
Hey Dawgpound, what about this-
Saquon Barkley #1 and Baker Mayfield #4?
That could be electric.

I'm not saying I'm for or against Barkley. But on its face you have to come to terms like I have that taking a running back top 5 has objectively been successful two years in a row. Fournette is an incredible difference maker in this game and we know what zeke has been doing.

Fournette averaged 3.9 yards a rush.
Crowell, his cane with a red tip and guide dog averaged better than that.

Cam Newton and Andrew Luck went 1st round back to back. So because that had been 'objectively successful' we should have taken Geno Smith 1st round in 13', huh?

I think the Jags would be just fine had they taken Kamara or Hunt in the third.

Maybe even Dion Lewis......... Too bad we can't ever find a player like that - oh, wait.

Because that's exactly what I said!
Calm down dude, we get it you don't like him. It's simply worth noting that the old adage of not taking a running back high has been proven wrong two years in a row now. QB always goes high so you know that's not the same thing.

That's exactly what you were implying though, no? What other way was there to interpret? Also, it's a message board. I'm plenty calm.

I said what I was implying and the two ideas are fundamentally different. You know that.
