This is kind of out of the blue. Hope it's just same old same old pre draft misinformation. Of course, he did have an injury in 2011, I believe, so it could have something to do with that. Perhaps he noticed the scar and work done and now, after several seasons of work, it has to be mentioned.kamihamster wrote: ↑Tue Apr 24, 2018 8:26 am Saw a news blurb saying that Michel could slip because some of his medicals.

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
Jaylen Samuels is pretty cool, right?
Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
And the RBs already start to fall...
On a more serious note I think there is a strong possibility that a lot of the RBs fall and the WRs will rise. Yes this RB class looks deep but they all have some serious ?’s including Barkley himself with the value he is at is pretty nuts. I look forward to the draft and what everyone thinks after the draft.

Michel has torn his ACL and fractured his shoulder blade twice. Nobody seems to ever bring it up. Maybe something didn't heal perfectly.kamihamster wrote: ↑Tue Apr 24, 2018 8:26 am Saw a news blurb saying that Michel could slip because some of his medicals.

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
This makes me more impressed. He was able to have the results we saw at the end of his career on a half healed knee or bad shoulder. If so, imagine if he corrects any lingering issues.Riffraff wrote: ↑Wed Apr 25, 2018 12:22 amMichel has torn his ACL and fractured his shoulder blade twice. Nobody seems to ever bring it up.

It will be a lot of fun going through this thread following the 2018 NFL Rookie Draft and of course in future years.

My RB rankings as of now:
Saquon
-----------
Guice
RoJo
Chubb
Michel
Penny
-----------
Freeman
Johnson
The 2nd tier is absurdly close. The difference between Guice and Penny isn't as large as my ranking would maybe suggest. I could see any of them producing at a high level.

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
Kerryon should be in that second tier. Incredibly talented, high draft capital, and should walk into a starting job on a good offense.dynastyninja wrote: ↑Mon Apr 30, 2018 7:14 pm My RB rankings as of now:

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
Incredibly talented is more credit than I'd be willing to give him. He seems like a fine running back, but I don't know if he's anything special.Chwf3rd wrote: ↑Mon Apr 30, 2018 10:40 pmKerryon should be in that second tier.

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
My rankings (just for RBs):
1. Barkley nothing was changing this pick
2. Rojo (really love the spot)
3. Guice (Really talented but there are a lot of other backs there that may limit his touches)
4. Penny (Nice landing spot IMO, one of the more elusive backs in the class)
5. Chubb (Despite landing in a less than ideal spot he is one of the most talented backs in this class. Had he went to TB or somewhere else I would have had him at 2.
6. Freeman (Love the landing spot!)
7. Johnson (Isn't elite in any area but does everything well enough.)

Re: 2018 RB rookie discussion
Anyone else kinda high on Ballage? Vision is an issue, but if he can improve I bet he'd be a pretty good workhorse in Miami.
