Emmanwori is a lock in rd 1 now. Probably top 15.

I feel like he is a the type of player someone is gonna call in love with and no be shy about using a top 10 pick on.

Not that any draft is easy to predict but this seems like one of the most unpredictable first rounds to me.

top 10? That's the exact reason said team is picking in the top 10. Bad front office.

Some of the solid RB 40 times

Bayshul Tuten 4.38
Jaydon Blue 4.39
Brashard Smith 4.39


Not real surprises so far with RB's . Everyone running about what I would have expected. Kyle Monangai maybe a bit slower then he had hoped for.

Tuten ran a 4.32 onn his second 40.





I am thinking Payton/Paton are among many others REALLY targeting TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins.

I think Payton will especially be excited about Henderson's ability to pass protect. Something he has always loved in his RB's and no better blocking RB in the draft then Henderson.. Also, has that versatility that you want in an all around back... Judkins has everything... Not saying we are going to end up with either but I have very strong feeling these are two of our favorite RB's in the draft.

Trevor Etienne running a 4.42 really surprised me. I didn't expect him to be slow but VERY good for him. Happy for him.

Judkins might be rb3. Probably should be early 2nd rd at the latest.

Top 5 for sure, IMO.

Sorta depends on what type of RB you need after the top 2.

Jeanty
Hampton
Kaleb Johnson
Henderson
Judkins
Sampson
Neal/Skates. Cluster of RB's

RB class is so deep that it will be interesting to see how early the big run starts on them. A lot of people think teams may pass early on because of the depth but remember teams fall in love with players and they really want who they want...

In a very deep RB draft I think Miami RB Damien Martiez as a pure runner is one of the most underrated players in this draft. Similar feeling with Arkasnas RB Ja'Quinden Jackson (who started his career as a QB at Utah but moved to RB)

Giddens is someone I like a lot. Should be multiple runs in rd2 and rd3.

Yes, it is hard to even rank these guys. Giddens is right there in that cluster. We could have a separate draft on RB's alone this year.


We got guys like Ollie Gordon who won the Doak Walker award (down year last year) Trevor Etienne, Montrell Johnson, Jordan James, LeQuint Allen, Tahj Brooks, Marcus Yarns, Damien Martinez, Ja'Quinden Jacksonn, Kyle Monangai, etc, etc.... In which some of these guys will fall outside of the top 10 and into the 15 rage which seems ridiculous. Not that he had a great college career after a great RS FR year but a guy like Donovan Edwards or Corey Kiner will find it hard to even sniff the top 15 because of the depth of this years draft.

So many good JR RB's stayed in college last year because of the NIL stuff and this year those guys ran out of eligibility and this year you didn't see that happen like it did inn 2024 draft so now you combine a REALLY good RB class in one draft.

Bond all talk.smh

Still fast... Didn't expect him to run a 4.2 lol even if he claims he can.

4.38 - 4.42 is about what I expected.. Love Bond.


Matthew Golden 4.30.

Ayomaynor running a 4.41 was VERY good for him.

Matthew Golden seems to be the highest floor WR imo

Hard to imagine him not being at least a solid starter

Trying my hardest to be neutral but Luther Burden seems like he sits halfway between Deebo Samuel and Percy Harvin.
