I won't argue there, but when you throw numbers and talent at a position there's a chance that one of those JAGs could turn into something.

CEH could still turn into the player we all expected, and Ronald Jones is still only 24 and has shown plenty of flashes. I'd prefer to have a proven workhorse too, but clearly this is how Veach and Reid want to roll and I'll just trust them until proven otherwise. I see the logic of what they're doing and it could really go either way.

This RB room is honestly not so bad, all things considered, if you remove CEH.

We’ve got McKinnon, who has proven in limited time to be a real weapon in this offense. He was a FA and is on a minimal deal.

We’ve got the reclamation project in RoJo. He’s a bum but he’s exactly the type of guy good franchises take a flyer on. We didn’t spend much to bring him in.

We’ve got the rookies to develop.

We’re better served spending our cap space on literally any position on offense other than RB.

Which is kind of weird because the organization has done a lot of shit I don’t like at RB.

First of all, I never would have gotten rid of Kareem Hunt. **** all the “he lied to us” shit. I wouldn’t have drafted CEH and I wouldn’t have let Damien Williams go.

Outside of those situations, they’re generally not spending resources on RB, which I love. Just churn and burn these guys. We can make trash RBs and Darrel Williams and CEH look decent anyway.

I had the RBs in CEH's class ranked

1)Taylor
2)Dobbins :shrug:
3)Akers

I thought we'd take a RB but CEH wasn't really even on my radar. Watched less tape on him than any of the others.

I think Logan Wilson would be so perfect for us. 6'2" 240, fast, quick. Prolific production. Great tackler. A Mike who doesn't have to come off the field on 3rd down. He moves great in coverage and has excellent ball skills. Doubt he's there for us in the 3rd. I wouldn't be the least bit upset if we reached a bit for him in the 2nd. Still should be a good RB left at our pick in the 3rd. Then go interior offensive line in 4 and 5, unless someone too hard to pass up slips.

IMO, in hindsight they should have suspended Hunt the rest of the regular season in '18 and put him in therapy/anger management classes. But, Clark took it personally.

It's a damned shame - Mahomes, Hill, Kelce, and Hunt all in their primes and wrecking defenses would have been so much fun to watch for years on end. But, we're still doing ok I'd say. Lol

I don't follow college ball so I can't speak much about pre-draft grades.

In the Chiefs' defense, I remember the reception to the pick being generally "Oh, shit. I can't believe the rest of the league let KC get this guy. I was a little peeved that we even drafted a RB in the 1st though.

Right. I can't be too upset because we did get that championship in 2019, but it's hard to imagine a world in which we keep Hunt and we don't still win that chip and also have a much better shot at winning the ones in 2020 and 2021.

No hindsight needed. Many said exactly that.

So if we remove the guy who we have the most invested in and who will also get the bulk of the touches to start the season we aren't in bad shape. That speaks volumes about the CEH pick.

We all know it was a bad pick. Well, most know it anyway. Some are still holding out. Then there are guys like Staylor, who think they know it all, and will chime in with stats to "prove" CEH is above average. :rolleyes:

Lol 2 down votes because it's no surprise a 5 star all SEC team is doing things in this league. This place absolutely sucks for football talk

That's basically league minimum for a guy with his years of service.

Can't go wrong with that.

“You can’t have enough running backs,” Reid said. “I think we know that. Particularly experienced ones. We felt like he still had juice left, which is important when you’re dealing with veteran players, especially at that position.”

“He’s very intelligent, he’s great in the pass-game part of it, pick-ups and so on, and he’s a good runner,” Reid explained. “And he’s a very good leader, he brings that with him too.”

“It’s good to have back in the mix,” Reid said. “It’ll be competitive though. I think Brett’s (Veach) done a real nice job just bringing in competition and that will help us down the road becoming a better football team.”

Plus we got him cheap too
