Figured we need a topic ahead of the draft. His floor probably isn't very low anyway, but which club would limit his ceiling the most?
If you are including all teams then I go with Giants with the Jets next. Course if a team with a stud RB were to take him say like the Eagles well then they leap frog the New York teams for worse landing spot. Now if your talking likely landing spots there would be some debate which teams to include. Looks like the Raiders are set to take him judging from remarks coming out of Vegas, course could be a smoke screen. I would love him on the Raiders. Bears are mentioned and I'd be OK with that even though Swift is on the roster, Cowboys would love that, Steelers? Yes please. Jags? Oh boy not to sure about that one. Bengals? Not likely to happen, won't be a fan of it. Bronco's? I be happy with that. Probably others to consider.Figured we need a topic ahead of the draft.

Only a couple of years? That's way to long for me.I'm going with the Jags because they never seem to have it together and could limit his whole career.
Philly, he'd be limited by Barkley only for a couple of years, for example.
From that list probably the Bears but that would be OK I think.
And from that list I only see 4 real possibilities considering Jeanty goes top 10. So the other 3 team listed would have to give up a lot of capital.
Depth is the first aspect but what about OL?Any place that isn't Vegas or Dallas. Anywhere else has an incumbent on the depth chart and it'll screw either or both of them
Except Denver.. forgot about them no decent incumbent there either.. but I'd really hate that
Do you consider Warren a incumbent at RB1 or depth RB?Any place that isn't Vegas or Dallas. Anywhere else has an incumbent on the depth chart and it'll screw either or both of them

I'd say unfettered access to 25+touches trumps all. But yes, those factors would come into play if we want to discuss which landings spots where undisputed #1 touches is a given would be better/ worseDepth is the first aspect but what about OL?
Who has the worst OL from that list?
Depth and RB options is the obvious factor but OL should have some consideration
He proven enough, imho, to be considered an incumbent, yes. At the absolute least, he'd be a big thorn in the side that would eat into touchesDo you consider Warren a incumbent at RB1 or depth RB?
Seems like a stretch. Guess the logic would be Jeanty would be a serious upgrade for the running game with Etienne as depth for a year and that would take a lot of pressure off of Lawrence.I see a lot of people mocking Jeanty to the Jags. Strange when the jags have so many needs + they have Etienne and Bigsby unless they are working on an Etienne trade. Last year of his contract I'm not sure he will fetch much on the trade market
it 'fits' as in the guy SHOULD be an upgrade to the existing so I guess I get the speculation. But their issues are deeper than a RB- especially given that the one's on the roster right now ain't terrible to begin with.I see a lot of people mocking Jeanty to the Jags.

I know I've done it but it has more to do with Jeanty just being the best player at that spot and the Jags having two young DTs. Its a terrible spot for Jeanty, though.I see a lot of people mocking Jeanty to the Jags.

The Bucs in general just ran the ball more than the Jags generally do. The issue on the Jags imo is that Anton Harrison is a bad run blocker (57.0 PFF) and he was their 1st round pick project who is only 23. Not the type of player you kick into Guard. From a fantasy perspective, you'd like to see a vet in there at RT and Harrison as the backup who earns his spot eventually. The Jags should draft a Guard but thats a rd2/rd3 thing. They need a CB but thats probably also a rd2/rd3 thing.I think it'd be a big mistake for the Jags, and i would think that Liam Coehen, given his success with guys like Kerwyn WIllaims with the Rams and Bucky Irving at Tampa, is probably more of that Shannahan/Kubiak/McVeigh mindset of waiting to the mid rounds to take a guy who fits the system- Assuming he doesn't think Ettiene is a fit already- which I think he should fit great in that system
Well at #5, with only Ward, Hunter and Carter as surefire locks to be gone before they pick, they could be looking at the best/second best OL tackle or guard, the second best EDGE, the best DL- all of which are positions of dire need, for them I think. Shit make a deal with Denver, sounds like they're willing to move up, bend Peyton over and use no KY jelly, move back and stockpile- still get a really good RB at 20somehting or in the secondThe Bucs in general just ran the ball more than the Jags generally do.

Maybe just not overthink things and take Graham at DT. Offense is still a mess imo
