Keith Byars
Hey, he did catch like 80 passes a year so that's something. Just not what we expected. But yeah Buddy had some good picks. Keith Jackson caught like 12 passes in college and he turned into a monster pass catching tight end. And Jerome Brown was one of the best players I ever saw for the short time he was around.Buddy nailed a lot of draft picks but...
needs time, but he was never gonna be a big b/w the tackles runner, was silly to take at #8, remind me of such great ones as tavon austin and reggie bush that eraly, although bush brought it.......for a few yearsThere is a loooong thread on a different Eagles page that says, "Lesean McCoy is a bust". Have to give him some time but he looks like a slot guy to me, definitely not worth the 8th pick IMO.
its not all about the blocking his ypc is just bad, bad blocking or not its bad,Christian will excel - give more time and better blocking.....
Send him to NE were all shifty white guys go to excel. It's not the player it's the system.Christian will excel - give more time and better blocking.....
I wouldn't have mortgaged the farm for him but depending on where my team sat and the need for RB I would've taken a flyer on him between 8-10. I think when all is said and done he has the potential to be top 10. Mainly based on his receiving ability. He had a slow start but is now starting to heat up. Some players just take a little longer.There were a lot of Bronco fans wanting the Broncos to trade multiple picks and future picks to move up and get him because he is a local kid and obviously son of a local hero. I was not one of those people. I thought he was a good but not great player that would struggle to live up to the hype. If I'm taking a RB in the 1st I'm viewing them as a top-5 player at their position very early in their career. Fournette and Elliott are the only two recently that I have viewed in that manner. Obviously the kid from Penn State this year is on his way to joining that list.

This will be Saquon Barkley as well. Has looked very unimpressive as a RB the past month.
RACISTHe's white and a runningback. Not like anyone predicted anything major here. Why the Panthers felt the need to take him top 10 is beyond me.
