Yeah it's possible, but first round RB's in this draft with the exception of Barkley will begin to go in the bottom 3rd of the first round and then begin to dominate the second round of the draft. The only thing we disagree with is a one player difference in round one, and I'm not sure who that player will be. You say he'll get drafted in the first, I say very early in the second, right now who knows?

regardless the top 4 RB's are gone before we pick.

regardless the top 4 RB's are gone before we pick.

Here are the top 13 teams in order with their needs outlined, where do you see 4 RB's going in these picks considering what their needs are?

1. Cleveland Browns
Record: 0-16 (.520)
Top needs: QB, CB, RT
The skinny: Cleveland has four picks within the first 35 selections of the draft and could conceivably address all of its priority needs with those picks. Quarterback and cornerback are obvious needs, but the Browns could look to fortify their protection if they are adding a new QB.

2. New York Giants
Record: 3-13 (.531)
Top needs: QB, OT, RB
The skinny: While many weren't happy with how the Eli Manning benching was handled, it doesn't change the fact that the team needs to find an heir apparent and might not have the right guy in Davis Webb. Finding a quality RB shouldn't be hard in this year's draft if the Giants make it an early priority. Speaking of priorities... OL anyone?

3. Indianapolis Colts
Record: 4-12 (.480)
Top needs: OL, ILB, EDGE
The skinny: The Colts simply don't have the talent they need at inside linebacker. The offensive line will be a focal point throughout the offseason. The Colts are switching to an upfield 4-3 attack and an edge rusher will help with that transition.

4. Cleveland Browns (via Texans)
Texans record: 4-12 (.516)
Browns top needs: QB, CB, RT
The skinny: This is the pick Cleveland acquired when the Texans traded up to land Deshaun Watson in this year's draft.
5. Denver Broncos
Record: 5-11 (.492)
Top needs: OL, QB, ILB
The skinny: It's time for Denver to find a new left guard and add competition at the right tackle position. Denver also might be ready to start looking again for a "quarterback of the future". The Broncos could lose ILBs via free agency so that could be addressed at some point.

6. New York Jets
Record: 5-11 (.520)
Top needs: QB, EDGE, RB
The skinny: Obviously, the Jets have to find a signal-caller to build around, but one of the best ways to help that QB is to give him a quality RB. Todd Bowles understands that pass rushers make the defense.

7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Record: 5-11 (.555)
Top needs: DE, CB, RB
The skinny: The Bucs aren't getting any pass rush off the edge and that is their highest priority. As expected, Doug Martin is out, which leaves a need at RB. Brent Grimes is a free agent and the Bucs could be looking for his replacement.
8. Chicago Bears
Record: 5-11 (.559)
Top needs: WR, OL, CB
The skinny: The Bears have a lot invested in Mitchell Trubisky and it's time to up that ante by giving him a WR1. The Bears could look to replace Bobby Massie at RT and with Josh Sitton gone, OG is a need. Chicago improved its safety spot but might need to add another starting-caliber CB in the early rounds.

9. San Francisco 49ers
Record: 6-10 (.512)
Top needs: EDGE, OG, CB
The skinny: The 49ers were 26th in the league in sacks last season, so they need to add more pass rush. They addressed their QB need with the Jimmy Garoppolo trade, but they must find more help along the OL, especially at OG. The CB spot opposite rookie Ahkello Witherspoon is high on the priority list.

10. Oakland Raiders
Record: 6-10 (.512)
Top needs: LB, DB, RB
The skinny: The Raiders don't have any CBs who are taking the ball away. They will likely add more help at CB and safety. When it comes to prioritizing defensive needs, the inside linebacker spot is a major concern. Finding a young, talented RB shouldn't be too hard this year.

11. Miami Dolphins
Record: 6-10 (.543)
Top needs: CB, OG, QB
The skinny: Even if the Dolphins decide to roll with Ryan Tannehill this season, finding his eventual replacement could be a consideration. Miami is in desperate need of guard help and finding a cornerback to compete for the spot opposite Xavien Howard is a possibility.

12. Cincinnati Bengals
Record: 7-9 (.465)
Top needs: OL, LB, TE
The skinny: The Bengals averaged 3.6 yards per carry and and their tackle play wasn't very good. Almost every position could be targeted up front. The linebacker position needs more speed and the Bengals could lose Tyler Eifert via free agency.

13. Washington Redskins
Record: 7-9 (.539)
Top needs: DL, LB, WR
The skinny: The Redskins added Jonathan Allen to their front last year, but they still have room for more talent along the defensive line. Finding a rangy stud linebacker to captain the defense should be one of their top priorities. At receiver, Ryan Grant and Terrelle Pryor are due to become free agents.

I meant the four RB's will go before we pick in the 2nd round. I don't see us going RB at #13.

Oh, Ok, I must have misread your post.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

I say 2 in first 6 in the 2nd

What site is that Sty? I need to bookmark that.

 

[ehb5]

If the USC guy stayed healthy he would of been a 1st rounder. Maybe he will still go 1st round. So Barkely, Guice, Michael, and the USC guy.

I think barkleys a lock and guice and Chubb are maybes. The rest would surprise me.

Payne looks good in drills. Really wanted to see more of Vea. Pulled hammy.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Love watching tomsula on drills

What do guys think about Nathan Shepard fort hays state

What do guys think about Nathan Shepard fort hays state

He looked very quick to me on the field drills. Very good size too. Might be a nice pick in the mid-later rounds if we could acquire an extra pick or two.

 

[deanpet21]

Payne is having a good day. He can rush the passer which is big. I am impressed with him today.

 

[skinsdad62]

if you watched the sr bowl you would have seen him excel .he is a good player

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Payne is there at 13 .. pats offer a 2nd RD PICK 6th round pick 2 rd pick 2020 do you make the trade bottom line vea and payne there at 13 to pass for the 30 spot

 

[skinsdad62]

Payne is there at 13 .. pats offer a 2nd RD PICK 6th round pick 2 rd pick 2020 do you make the trade bottom line vea and payne there at 13 to pass for the 30 spot

i wouldnt with the pats at 30 , another team perhaps in the 20's but 30 is too far to go down

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Sometimes staying PAT is the best thing to do .. if I was a GM my first 2 picks stay put I would always use the 3rd pick to trade down as much as a can

 

[gkekoa]

Nope. That is way too far down to trade with the Pats.
