Saquon Barkley Combine Bound
-
Duke could move to the slot actually. You might need to give Barkley a breather here and there but nothing like Crowell and Johnson do now.
You're not going to want to take Barkley out of the game. He's either getting the ball, creating a distraction to help his teammates get the ball or he's helping to protect the Quarterback.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one. -Mark Twain- "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog." -Mark Twain- -

By the time Barkley turns 26 he will have run for 20,000 yards in the NFL, won a Nobel Peace Prize and cured cancer.

Here, maybe this will help you out, so you know what we're talking about. http://speedendurance.com/2008/06/25/fastest-times-for-the-40-yard-dash-and-the-3-cone-drill/
* Vertical Jump – designed to test leg strength and lower-body explosiveness.
* Broad Jump – designed to show sluggishness, heavy-leggedness and lack of explosiveness.
* 225-lb. Bench Press – designed to test the upper-body strength of a player.
* 40-Yard Dash – times show how explosive a player is off the line and how he maintains it.
* 20-Yard Dash – times show how explosive a player is off the line and how he maintains it.
* 10-Yard Dash – times show how explosive a player is off the line.
* 20-Yard Shuttle – designed to test explosiveness, how a player bends and changes direction, and body control.
* 60-Yard Shuttle – designed to test explosiveness, flexibility, and body control; and a subtle test of endurance.
* 3-Cone Drill – designed to test a player’s efficiency in changing direction moving left and right, explosiveness, balance, body control and mobility.
The most important skills to master are the 40-yard dash and the 3-Cone drill. The reason these two drills are so important is they help football coaches determine what positions you are best suited to play.
You should know that the speed players are completing these drills has been improving every year. This is because more and more high school and college players are working with professional sports trainers to help them maximize their performance.
Below I have listed the minimum times you need to have by position if you want to impress college football scouts. One thing to keep in mind for these tests is the size of the player. Smaller players should have an advantage over their bigger counterparts in regard to speed. If you are a big player, it says a lot about your athletic ability if you perform well in these drills.
40-Yard Dash:
QB: 4.7 seconds or faster
RB: 4.5 seconds or faster
WR: 4.4 seconds or faster
FB/TE: 4.7 seconds or faster
OL: 5.2 seconds or faster
DT: 5.1 seconds or faster
4-3 DE and 3-4 OLB: 4.8 seconds or faster
4-3 OLB: 4.7 seconds or faster
ILB: 4.7 seconds or faster
S: 4.5 seconds or faster
CB: 4.5 seconds or faster3-Cone Drill:
QB: 7.1 seconds or faster
RB: 7.1 seconds or faster
WR: 7.0 seconds or faster
FB/TE: 7.2 seconds or faster
OL: 7.8 seconds or faster
DT: 7.7 seconds or faster
4-3 DE and 3-4 OLB: 7.2 seconds or faster
4-3 OLB: 7.1 seconds or faster
ILB: 7.2 seconds or faster
S: 7.1 seconds or faster
CB: 7.0 seconds or fasterIn summary, to become a professional football player, you must master the skills colleges and NFL teams use to measure the quality of an athlete. If you want to make it to the NFL, you should work with a professional sports trainer to help you maximize your performance so you can achieve and exceed the drill speed times discussed above. Other athletes are doing this and for you to compete with them, you need to do it too.

What about Crowell?
He is a FA and if the Browns take Barkley is there a room on the team? Still have Duke with a whole different skill set. 3rd down change of pace RB.
What about Crowell?
Crow packed his locker, while Hue ran the cops (up the middle of course) to Crows home evacuation..

I know the term, but that's not Sasa.
What you have with Barkley is when talent and preparation meet opportunity.
This kid knows that he has God given talent and he's put that to work, becoming the strongest-fastest version of himself.
A truly amazing kid both on and off the field. A relentless worker, a leader and a tremendous role model.
You can find other runningbacks later in the draft, but you aren't going to find another Saquon.
What we need is for him to bring his talents to NorthBeach.
...If we draft him, they will come...

Now Po, we have talked about this. You are talking someone up too much again. There is s difference in hand timed vs electronic. And unless you are Saquon or someone incredibly close to him, you can't truly say he is truly amazing off the field.
That's what everyone said and thought about a Mr. Tiger Woods a while back.
Curb your excitement and praise for AFTER the kid has proven something.

In the past 15 years (probably more) there has only been one first round RB on a super bowl winning team. That RB is Marshawn Lynch, and he wasn’t drafted by the team he won a Super Bowl with.
Transversely, in that time, there have been multiple teams that won a Super Bowl by starting undrafted RBs. Some teams even had a RBBC with multiple undrafted RBs. The saints did it with Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell. The Steelers won two with undrafted Willie Parker, the Colts won with undrafted Dominic Rhodes, the Eagles won with a pair of undrafted guys; Blount and Clement, and a fifth rounder that they didn’t draft. The giants won two superbowls, once with a 4th rounder (Jacobs) and once with a 7th rounder (Bradshaw).
there are kids in college who have spent their entire lives living in a world where championship winning teams used throw away picks or no picks at all to secure their RB. Using the best pick in the draft on a position that is far and away the easiest to fill is the kind of move that truck drivers and cashiers make. Football professionals don’t do that, and the ones who spend premium picks on the position are almost always shown up by mid round selections. For every Zeke there’s a David Johnson, for every Fournette there’s a Kamara, for every McCaffery there’s a Kareem Hunt...
The best RB in a decade isn’t worth 1/4 of what the best QB in a 2 year span is. You can spend the day at Cedar Point and walk past at least 30 guys who could RB for a Super Bowl winning team, how many times have you walked past Tom Brady or Peyton Manning?

I’d love for the Giants or Colts to draft Saquon. If Barkley is one of the 2 picks between browns selections, odds are good that we’ll have Bradley Chubb waiting at #4

Gmen still have nightmares from their last 1st round RB pick and that wasn't a top 5 selection.
Orlando Brown will most likely arrive in NY Blue... especially with them committing to Eli.

While I agree with your point, you are wrong on no 1st rounders have won a Super Bowl.
2000- Super Bowl XXXIV: Marshall Faulk
2006- Super Bowl XL: Jerome Bettis
2007- Super Bowl XLI: Joseph Addai
2010- Super Bowl XLIV: Reggie Bush
2014- Super Bowl XLVIII: Marshawn Lynch ( you mentioned)
So, in this millennium, there has been 5 in 19 years. So about 26%.
And even though I agree with what you are trying to say, you got it wrong. And since 2000, 1st round QB
2006- Super Bowl XL: Big Ben
2007- Super Bowl XLI: Peyton Manning
2008- Super Bowl XLII: Eli Manning
2009- Super Bowl XLIII: Big Ben
2011- Super Bowl XLV: Aaron Rodgers
2012- Super Bowl XLVI: Eli Manning
2013- Super Bowl XLVII: Joe Flacco
2016- Super Bowl 50: Peyton Manning
2018- Super Bowl LII: Carson Wentz
So in this millennium, there has been 9 in 19 years, or about 47%.
So yes QB is more important, the most important position, and it is certainly better to get a RB later as opposed to QB, but this millennium more that 50% of Super Bowl winning QB weren't 1st rounders.
I like your premise, but don't put incorrect facts to present your case
-
Oops, I forgot to say Starting RBs as the source I was using only listed the starters. But the fact that first rounder Addai was outperformed by undrafted Rhodes still works for the argument. Faulk doesn’t count because I said 15 years. Bettis wasn’t the starter and signifies the changing of the guard. By the time he won a Super Bowl he was just a fat butt figure head who fell down into the end zone sometimes. Averaged about 40 yds/game in the playoffs in 2005. Did pretty well pulling off the type 2 shuffle for a few TDs though. Reggie Bush is a great example of when taking a first round QB goes wrong....At any rate, how many undrafted QBs have won a super bowl? Warner is the only one I can think of.
Edit: or maybe a better question is how many times does a first round QB back up an undrafted QB?

Duke could move to the slot actually. You might need to give Barkley a breather here and there but nothing like Crowell and Johnson do now.
You're not going to want to take Barkley out of the game. He's either getting the ball, creating a distraction to help his teammates get the ball or he's helping to protect the Quarterback.

Exactly, which means Crowell is sitting on the bench. Its seemed like the Browns were moving on from Crowell this past season. I thought that he was hurt too, but not really sure..Looks like the Browns will let him test the market and come back with an offer to match. If Dorsey does not resign him its a given that Barkley is the 1 pick and 4 the QB pick.

Because Crowell is not coming back it's a given that Barkley is the #1 pick?
That's some interesting logic, there.

https://www.dawgsbynature.com/2018/2/7/16986826/list-of-the-cleveland-browns-free-agents Crow starts over with contract with Dorsey. A guy that points at improving talent, Spottrac values Crow about 5.6M/year.(saints M.Ingram $) New eyes of New RB coach & Todd Haley at OC can't hurt talent evaluations. Can't see us now winning a matching deal now? (never do)imo Crow & agent won't see the money they are looking either.
