You’re refusing to address any points about draft value and positional scarcity.
At this point there’s no reason to keep quoting me.
Who is drafting Bijan Robinson?
- Thread starter Joe Sixpack
- Start date
At this point there’s no reason to keep quoting me.

We told you hes generational . You told us about the RB positron as normal.
You don't need a generational RB to win.
Have you been watching the NFL in the last 20 years? Maybe go through the list of the RBs on those winning teams. It might be eye-opening for you.

no one said this. The point is you never watched him and kept slapping him with the plain RB tag. We watched him told you coming in that he was going to be generational yet you still apply the simple RB tag on him.
apply your lazy point to average good backs who come in. bijan is a once every5 to 10 years back
The point is that it doesn’t matter because no running back, not even a generational one is worth taking in the top ten picks because you don’t need one to win.
You play to win.
That’s the whole point.
Why would you take a running back 8th overall when you can win as many games or more with a running back taken on Day 2 or 3? And the history proves this.
You refuse to answer that simple question.

Yes it does . No one is arguing for a back like that this year. A top 3 player in the league at a skill position supercedes position.
Period. You didnt know who he was. We did. Hes proving it . Some feel hes the best player in the league. The Falcons failing him isnt his fault. Pushing the needle is ass.
You’re just not getting it.
Nobody cares if you have a great player if you don’t have a great team.
You’re drafting and signing guys to construct a winning team. And WHEN you draft guys matters as much as WHO you draft.
How is it even possible that you have 40 years of football experience and you cannot grasp this? It’s baffling.

Smart GMs dont pass by generational talents. You boxing Bijan into the every year RB is a you problem. We told you hes a Swiss Army knife but you admitted to not knowing much about him, so youre sticking to your lazy RB mantra
You keep talking about this generational RB nonsense as if it matters.
It doesn't.
Go back 15-20 years. Pretty much any elite or "generational" RB you mention didn't lead the team that drafted them to a SB title.
And frankly, it's a good bet that Bijan won't, either.

Do WRs lead teams to Super Bowl titles? Left Tackles? There’s no one position leads to SB titles besides qbs.
And no….there aren’t many generational backs period.
Youre the one dumb enough to set aside a player who can play BOTH wr and rb like Bijan.
Tomlinson didn’t win a title either.
Hell Barry Sanders was the most generational RB ever. He didn’t win anything either.
Why not? Because the team lacked talent elsewhere that had a greater correlation/impact to winning.
Everyone understands this but you seem hell bent on ignoring it out of this Bijan stannery.
Yeah. He’s great.
But he’s not good enough to justify that heavy of an investment that comes at that draft price.
The Seahawks have two 2nd round RBs. The Bills have another. They are also better teams than the Falcons. That’s not a coincidence.
Draft strategy and value matters.

Yeah. Barry held the Lions back.
Again…..what is this top 8 pick that leads?
Bijan has more catches than 93% of receivers in the league. What is this top 8, lead teams to the Super Bowl position?
When you answer my questions I’ll answer yours.Yeah. Barry held the Lions back.

Again….you’re full of shyt over a guy you didn’t watch.
1450 yards rushing
76 catches and 820 yards receiving
You: “hE’s noT wORtH dA pICk aT 8” while unable to name a position that auto “moves the needle” at 8.
Still not answering my questions huh.
