Why would we want to dominate him?

He was never worth a first round pick.

Reminds me of Edgerrain James after the knee injuries.

Ron Dayne Part II

There are a number of backs I'd rather have (Taiwan Jones, Daniel Thomas etc). I'd rather have another Charles, not another Jones.

And I might be one of the few who don't believe in this "Change of Pace Back" nonsense.

GAWD...the more i watch and hear about Taiwan Jones the more i pray that the Chiefs find a way to draft him. My only fear is that he's gone by the time we pick in the 2nd. Rumored to be running 1.4s 10 yard splits.

imagine putting him in the backfield with Charles; McCluster in the slot. Draft Hankerson in the 1st to pair with Bowe on the outside.

Oh ****, I just jizzed myself. SOB. brb.

He is not a workhorse but arguebly you'd get more out of those 14 carries than out of the 14-20+ carries that Jones had when he split with Charles this last year. Not to mention we might actually have a short yardage back finally.

This.

Ingram sure looked hurt at the combine, didn't he? LMAO

Seriously, some of you guys are so gullible. Yeah, I'd love to get him in the 4th round...hopefully all of the other first rounders will be there in the 4th too! ROFL

Short yardage backs are so overrated. Calling a back a short yardage back is just another way of saying he's not explosive.

Our short yardage issues have much more to do with our O-Line, not our backs. These bulldozer style backs went out of style 5 years ago.

The best backs these days have speed on speed, they cut and slash and explode through holes. They don't run up the centers ass ala LJ. Gimme another CJ, JC, AP etc.

Not that he's the guy I want us to take, but I don't think I'd be pissed if he ended up being our first pick.

Having 2 studs at RB would be a good thing, and drafting a RB in the 1st (right now) gets you a 5 year contract. Use, franchise, release. All his good years are gone.

first round? hell no
second round? sure I guess
third round? hell yes

Absolutely. I wonder how many of these rumors are started by teams in order to position the players for themselves.

He could represent great value if he fell to the third round or so. Not likely, but with RBs being disposable commodities that is the highest I'd spend a pick on one...

Precisely:thumb: Who are these so-called 2 teams?

Good running backs are a dime a dozen. There's absolutely no reason to use
a first-round pick on a back when you can get a good one, a very, very good one in later rounds.
