It was never a good pick. Just terrible value on a position that's easier to fill than Pestilence's mom.
"Value picks" like that are how you get into positions like we're in now. Had they taken a WR there, we'd be better off now.
Forward thinking in the draft. Alwasys.

Yes and No, Probably shouldnt have taken a 1st rounder BUT had they taken any other top RB, Taylor, Swift, Dobbins (2nd rounders) or even Antonio Gibson (3rd rounder) we would be much happier with the pick.
So I think both sides of this discussion have merit.

One I don't think we've seen the best out of CEH but this season will tell the story. I don't believe we picked the wrong running back unless he can't kick the injury prone moniker but i think he can. Everyone underestimates CEH and that's fine he knows it. He admitted coming into camp underweight because he lost wait after his gall bladder surgery during offseason. Ok I'm not making that as an excuse but it probably didn't help him. He did come on strong in the playoffs a lot stronger than Johnathan Taylor how many TD rushing yards he get?
CEH had a hell of a good rookie season and everyone loved him then the next season fumbles the ball for the first time in NFL and he gets dogged on. He wasn't at 100% and coach should have held him out first 6 games.
It wasn't a mistake to pick CEH for our #32 pick he just has to stay healthy but you do the splits getting tackled and see how that feels. He was running over teams in his rookie year and before he got hurt talk of OROTY. So now his third year i have higher expectations and he will come though of course this offensive line it's not going be hard for him to look good when he get to the second wave of tacklers. At the time of the draft RB was our biggest need even if you don't draft running backs in the first round.
This is the kind of play we should expect out of CEH he has it in him just need him for the season.
