He looks the part. It'll be interesting to see how he tests. Sometimes Big 12 film doesn't translate to real athletes. He also has a fair bit of miles.

This is me being an uberdouchehomer trying to temper myself.

Good news

The good news is this RB draft class is the bee's knees.

There are 30+ backs in this class with legit draftable grades. https://t.co/e1OYW68eGP

I'll guess around 30 with draftable grades. I'm sure the bottom of the list might have some differences but this should end up pretty damned close. Not necessarily my rankings here...

01. Ashton Jeanty, Boise State
02. Omarion Hampton, North Carolina
03. TreVeyon Henderson, Ohio State
04. Kaleb Johnson, Iowa
05. Cameron Skattebo, Arizona State
06. Quinshon Judkins, Ohio State
07. Ollie Gordon II, Oklahoma State
08. Dylan Sampson, Tennessee
09. RJ Harvey, UCF
10. Devin Neal, Kansas
11. D.J. Giddens, Kansas State
12. Kyle Monagai, Rutgers
13. Bhayshul Tuten, Virginia Tech
14. Jarquez Hunter, Auburn
15. Raheim Sanders, South Carolina
16. Damien Martinez, Miami
17. Jo'Quavious Marks, USC
18. Tahj Brooks, Texas Tech
19. Kalel Mullings, Michigan
20. Donovan Edwards, Michigan
21. Marcus Yarns, Delaware
22. Brashard Smith, SMU
23. Roman Hemby, Maryland
24. Jordan James, Oregon
25. LeQuint Allen Jr, Syracuse
26. Corey Kiner, Cincinnati
27. Mario Anderson, Memphis
28. Phil Mafah, Clemson

31. Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Arizona
32. Nate Noel, Missouri
33. Tre Stewart, Jacksonville State

It's crazy to think that there might be as many as 15 RBs in this class that would normally get day 2 grades.

[CatfishBob2]

We deserve and should have an RB out of the top ten on that list. I don't think any team in the league has invested less than us, and maybe Dallas, at the position and it SHOWS

What do you guys think of Skattebo? Is he this year’s Carson Steele? He’s got more lateral agility and some pass-catching chops so I don’t mean it literally, but what I mean is he just a college star that won’t be as impactful in the pros or do you truly believe in him to the point you’d be willing to select him?

Oh I'd select him. he's got great contact balance and he's far quicker, far more agile, and faster than Steele. He actually reminds me of Kareem Hunt but maybe an even better receiving back.

This. He's a bit of a poor man's CMC.

[Urc Burry]

Judkins reminds me of a juiced up Kareem.. am I off on that?

I personally would love a home run hitter.. I miss the Jamaal Charles days dearly

He runs in the 4.6 range has issued with fumble and doesn't pass protect well im not getting your kareem hunt comparison

The dude has never had a fumble in his career so I'm not sure where the fumble issues statement comes from. Hunt ran a 4.60. Steele ran 4.77 for comparison. Hunt and Skattebo are about identical in size at 5'11" 215. Skattebo runs with great balance, like Hunt.

Now if he goes to the combine and runs around a 4.8, no I wouldn't touch him. But if he runs a 4.65 or lower, yeah I'd take that kid in the middle rounds easily.

I mean, look at 1k rushers this year and you'll a few in that 4.6-4.65 range... Kyren Williams and Josh Jacobs come to mind

He's never fumbled?

Yeah I'd take a flyer on him in the middle rounds as well

[Titty Meat]

Hell of a college player somewhere between Toby Gehart & Mike Alstott

[Boxer_Chief]

Idk with skatteboo I see a lot of Cody schrader and he never played this year. Led the sec in rushing and was a big bruising white tailback. Skatteboo might be slightly better because of his receiving but he worries me.

[Hoover]

Its not our biggest need, but it is an easy opportunity to improve the offense overnight, and the best thing is that there are 5 or 6 guys that would great great fits. There is no need to over draft because you want/need one.
