Will Melvin Gordon and/or Gurley get rb's back in the 1st round?

The only way Gurley is not going in the 1st round is if every GM just sticks to the "no running backs in the 1st"

Dude is one of the few players I've seen ever at the college level...who is just too big too fast too strong for college level athletes

Im a UGA fan and Ive been telling nikkas Todd was the truth since he was Tarboro. He is the REAL DEAL. Any team that drafts him can bank on him being a top 3 RB within 2 years(barring injuries). Gordon is the truth too. His quickness compared to his size is incredible. I think they are both studs.

Nah I don't see a RB going in the first unless they beast out at the combine and are underclassman's who have never ever had an injury who can also catch and block.


It plain dirty how the RB position has been done.

Henry is the 1st rounder out of Bama, he just wont get the big touches until his junior year. i like Drake and Yeldon, but im not sure if they get picked that early. Drake has a WR build

Yeah Yeldon is nice. But since Richardson showed up, Im iffy about Bama backs man. Richardson need to give us our 1st Round Pick back :damn:
Im liking this Abdullah kid. First time seeing him. Love his burst, and he has some wiggle. Like him better than Gurley too.

Big Ten might be trash but they have some nice RB's this year with Abdullah and Gordon (who reminds me of Jamaal Charles).

Indiana's Tevin Coleman is explosive as fukk too. He killed Mizzou today.

He don't even start. :wtf: nikka had 4 carries for 15 yards today. You trolling?
Breh, I dont just see stats, I see potential. He reminds me of CJ2k, but more versatile. And he has 2 incredible backs in front of him. This reminds me of McGahee when Gore was injured and never played, but people knew Gore would beast when he was able to play. Drake has a lot of potential and I think he's going to be a better Pro than he was an amateur. Like Jamal Charles. Id pick him in the 2nd or 3rd rnd and see what he can do. Preferably the 3rd.

But Abdullah is my guy right now. Id use a 1 on him :wow:

Gordon is more elusive than Charles

Do you not think that there will be players better than him on an NFL roster? How do you go from the 3rd best back on a college team to the best back on an NFL team? :wtf:

He's not on just any College team. He'd start @ a lot of other schools. He's better than any back Fla has. I think he's better than Duke Johnson @ Miami. We talking 3rd rnd @ best. I believe he's worth it.

I like him better than any FSU and Clemson back too. Yeldon and Henry were 5stars comin out. For Saban to even feel like Drake needs touches tells me he's thought highly of. I actually think Yeldon will bounce and Drake will stay for his Sr Yr. At least he should.

Gurley's durability has been questionable his first 2 years. That's my only :lupe: with him. Even though he's a mutt, he's a beast. Real recognize real...
