Spags willingness to bring pressure and also to use deception in coverages makes a corners life much easier, just gotta have guys play as a team to be able to operate the system rather than have superstars who can just shut a guy down. Can't remember where I saw the video, but I was watching something about how the Eagles built their superbowl team, and it was expensive at safety where players have to be better at multiple responsibilities, and cheap at corner. |

Also, Kareem Hunt is on TV right now showing everyone how CEH could fit into this offense. |

Sure, any JAG can just run themselves into the line, but that's not the point. The idea is to consistently get those "dirty" yards. To find a way to get 2, 3, 4 yards when there is no hole, when the blocking has broken down against good/great defensive fronts. We all like to watch a guy run for 50-80 yards and a TD; it's great fun. But that's not what even great backs do most of the time. Great backs find a way to consistently get yards that 90% of the other backs can't or don't get. Take Marcus Allen for example. By the time he came to the Chiefs he didn't really have that long speed anymore. But he was the best in the league at converting short yardage situations. IIRC, on 3rd/4th and 2 yards or less he converted at a league-best 98%. So in situations when the opposing team knew that Marcus was getting the ball, he converted those downs anyway 98 times out of 100. And that's a big part of what made him great. Not however many long runs he had with the Chiefs, because there weren't that many. If this kid can convert those short yardage situations to score at the goal-line or salt away the clock at the end of a game, as well as put us in 2nd and 5 yards or less situations, he'll be worth that first round pick, no question. His pass-catching ability and inevitable crazy gizmo runs will just be icing on the cake. |

Yeah I was about to say Marcus Allen was the best short yardage back I have ever seen, even to this day. |
Quote:
Watch what happens if he becomes just another RB, he's special so use him that way. |

CEH isnt some gadget third down back. He is an every down back that will improve our run game drastically. |
Quote:
But those guys were 235+, Marcus wasn't and he is the same weight as CEH albeit taller obviously. CEH will be fine. |

And there have been plenty of guys that were great inside that weren't 230+ lbs. Curtis Martin, LaDainlian, Thurman Thomas, Tony Dorsett . . . |
CEH is unique. That's why the Chiefs drafted him. One of the ways in which he is unique is finding daylight between the tackles inside with otherworldly vision and elusiveness.
Ubeja doesn't watch film or listen when he is constantly proven wrong. It's like arguing with my uncle the Oklahoma chicken farmer about politics. |

I don't know about chicken farmer, but Ubeja is certainly a chicken ****er.

Show me this...CONSTANTLY...proven wrong since no football has been played. Nobody is unique until they excell vs NFL competition. |
Schefter picked him as early rookie of the year

He is basically a WR out of the backfield. Just another big weapon for Mahomes. He will be used like Westbrook and more currently McCaffery.
|
Look guys....
They passed on a 228 pound workhorse with 4.3 jets because CEH is more versatile, he can do more. Ok, so use that versatility which is why he is there. Any RB can hit between the tackles, so ya gamble using your smallish/most expensive/most valuable RB in that role? Hell no ya don't, not saying he never...wham....am saying that isn't why he's in there. Come on people, damn!!!!!!!! |

After reading these last couple pages of Ubeja, I'll never call Dane clueless again... holy mother of god.

Well? You have any idea at all how many had Taylor going to the Chiefs IF we did pick a RB? Well? Not wanting to see our GREAT TO BE RB hurt because he was creamed by a backer between the tackles is unusual.....really? Just a serious fan who wants the best for the team. |

Since I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night, I'll venture to say your boy Jon will have a nice little career for himself that won't amount to shit as far as the end-game is concerned and he'll probably contribute heftily to that by putting the ball on the ground often. |
Clyde is a hell of a receiver.
He will be devastating in the slot. He can set up the coverage 'backer or safety on Choice Routes once he and Mahomes develop some of that Kelce-Mahomes ESP. I will also be interested to see Wally use him on the Jet Sweep and the Shovel Pass. Personally, I would love to see a play in which he transitions from a typical, classic RB Motion into a quick-snap Jet. "Surprise, defense! You just got your ass handed to you!" FAX |

Field Yates
✔ @FieldYates LSU RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire is the only player in SEC history with 1,000+ rushing yards and 50+ receptions in a single season. A crazy stat to consider when factoring in that the SEC has had 95 RB drafted to the NFL just since 2000, including 15 first rounders. |
Tom Pelissero
✔ @TomPelissero One coach told me new #Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire was the best player he saw on tape in this draft: "He's such a playmaker. He’s a good ball-carrier, but his value in the pass game is pretty substantial. He never gets tackled by the first guy." |

To me CEH will have a huge impact in the team's success in the following years. This guy is built to play in big games. I honestly believe we are winning at the very least 3 Super Bowls with him on the starting roster.

Every carry he takes is a play he takes from Mahomes. Every catch he makes is a catch taken from Kelce/Hill/Watkins Every salary cap dollar he takes up is away from a more important position When you have an elite QB, an RB is not really an important addition Not my opinion, what the stat nerds say. |
Quote:
I mean the only way to stop Pat is to bring heat, hit him and beat him up... how great will it be to have a dynamic pass catching back available to bail out to when the blitzes rain down? I just don't see a downside.... I think Reid sees Marshall Faulk in St. Louis. |

I don't know why ya'll don't just thumbs-down posts into oblivion* and move on... WTF would anyone want to attempt rationalization against "every time you give it to one really talented guy, another talented guy isn't getting the ball!", much less someone else opinion spamming the thread as long as people keep replying.
Not advocating for rep-war style BS, but still... (*go ahead, just do it and get it over with....) |

The chiefs don't pass the ball every ****ing play you God damn idiot. Veach said it himself, "instead of running into a a wall and having a 2nd and 8 we've got a guy who can get you into 2nd and 3 type situation that will open up the offense to be able to take shots. I swear this Jake guy has to be trolling

2018 Mahomes threw for 50 TDs and 5000 yards
Kareem Hunt had 1202 total yards and 14 TDs in 11 games 824 rushing and 378 receiving CEH is going to be better than Hunt. |
Reading other team boards, many fans are pissed we got CEH. They hoped he would land in the second and teams would pass on him. That alone tells you we made the right pick.

Guys, we ****ed up.
Damien Williams shouldn't have had two TDs in the Super Bowl. Those are two TDs that could have gone to Kelce/Hill/Watkins |
Wtf is a bellcow in terms of RBs?

So if you have a back like CEH that can pull first downs out of his hat like a magician- the offense is going to have More chances to score. Did the draft nerds watch this offense struggle with short-yardage pickups for a majority of the season last year? If you Punt- you do not get more plays. I hope that helps. First downs are Good on Offense- Punts are Bad. |
Quote:
The days of Christian Okoye and Ron Dayne are pretty much over in the NFL. CEH is going to take this offense back to the level they were playing at with Hunt, and by the end of the year our offense will be beyond even that. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |
