Penny or Michel?

Postby Gator Sens » Tue May 08, 2018 2:47 pm

Looking at the 1.04 pick. Who are you going with if both players are available, Penny or Michel and why? Thanks for the help all!

I took Penny over Michel in two different drafts, if that answers the question for you. Just haven't been a huge fan of Michel.

Michel because I think he's the better player.

Penny is the safer pick in my mind. But I think his upside is much less. The Seahawks don't have an offensive line and their defense is not what is once was so they'll be in passing situations much more than in the past.
Michel is riskier because he's a Patriots RB and you never know what BB will do. However, I doubt he would have used a 1st round pick on a player and not have a plan to use him in the best way possible. I think Michel is more talented and if he can fix his fumbling issues he'll get the majority of touches in one of the top offenses in the league.

I'd take Michel but I'm a little biased.

I had Michel ahead of Penny before the draft by 2 spots and the draft didn’t really change much for me. It’s close but think Michel is the more talented back. While we all hate NE for RBs the fact that they pullled the trigger on him in the 1st offsets that a bit. It’s a coin flip but I still lean Michel

I am honestly not a fan of either landing spot, but if I had to choose I would take Penny.

Penny for me. I don’t like investing high picks in Patriots RBs, but I do agree that Michel could potentially be great if he gets enough touches.

I'd take chubb last between all of them. Terrible terrible terrible team and no matter what he will never be in on 3rd downs as long as Duke is there. At least penny is poised for around 300 touches and Michel is on the best offensive in the nfl. Talent: Michel>Penny>Chubb. Situation:Penny> Michel>Chubb

If I were you, I'd flip a coin. Heads take Chubb, Tails take RoJo.

I'm hoping other owners are taking Sony and Penny.

Penny. The Seahawks thought he was talented enough for a first round pick and doesn’t have much competition on a team that wants to be a run oriented. The fact that the Pats took Michel in round 1 is intriguing, but Pats RBs are difficult to commit to because of BB’s sporadic usage. Michel probably has the higher ceiling being in one of the best offenses but Penny has the higher floor because of his situation. Keep in mind Seattle could have drafted Michel if they wanted to, but chose Penny.
