Never considered Michel or Penny at 1.02 but the million dollar question is... do I have to now?
Still need to see where the rest of these non-Barkley bums (hehe) go, but regardless... hard to see Guice as a slam dunk 1.02 anymore.
If you're desperate for help at RB (and those are good odds at 1.02), the 1.02 isn't as exciting as it was 24 hours ago.
I'm sitting at 1.07 and I doubt Guice is in my top 7. In fact he is not.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
All this talk about about Guice not being in the top 7 or Top 10 is ridiculous and sounds more like people trying to drive his stock down further so there's an off chance that he reaches their low end pick.
The RBs with good talent got questionable landing spots, the RBs with questionable talent got good landing spots. Which muddied the RB rankings a little.
Guice is about the only RB that has good talent and a good landing spot. I'll give a little wiggle room and he's definitely 1.02 or 1.03.
If your gonna dismiss talent and landing spot for a few chatacter concerns, everyone better run out and sell their Zeke and Leveon shares.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
Disagree. But one thing I do know to ring true: draft capital. Penny and Michel went in the first. Michel is tricky because he went to the Pats.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
I would take ROJO over Guice, but Guice is still in my 1.03-1.05 range. Outside top 7 seems crazy. but I draft 9 so I hope so!

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
In a universe that is just about on-field football, Guice can lead the NFL in rushing behind that Washington OL. I believe he's that talented on the field. However, to be that successful he's going to have to put in the work. The NFL rarely tells us the whole truth, but one time they do is when they use a draft pick. Executives in several cities did not want to bet their livelihood on Guice putting in the work and fitting into their locker room. That should give pause to dynasty drafters - it's a risk assessment. The ceiling is still "NFL rushing leader" but it seems like the floor isn't RB2 for fantasy....more like rookie doghouse/learn to be a professional --> non-contributor year one.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
All this does is make his grip on the 2 spot a lot lighter...the "concerns" and seemingly surprise drop to late 2nd will open the door for other guys like Ronald Jones, Rashad Penny, possibly even some WR (you know this community can't help themselves with WR love) to sneak up.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
He was going to go to Cleveland by the sounds of it in the early 2nd. I think he was coming off the board soon. Hawks stated they were willing to take him at 18, and that as soon as they picked him a team (that most likely got sniped) called them to inquire about trading for him.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
I read/heard speculation that the team that called Seattle about Penny was NE. After that went nowhere they picked Michel. Grain of salt, but someone on a podcast (I think) passed it along.FantasyFreak wrote: ↑Sat Apr 28, 2018 7:47 amHe was going to go to Cleveland by the sounds of it in the early 2nd.

Also heard that some believe it was NE who leaked to Mayock/Lombardi et al that Michel has a bone/bone issue in his knee. Speculation was based on the relationship those two media guys have with Belichek. NE then turned around and picked him...interesting.
Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
It's not like he fell to the 5th round. He fell later in the same round he was probably going to go in anyway. It was dramatic while it was going on but in the end he ended up as a 2nd round pick in a good situation, which is pretty much what everyone was hoping for going into the draft.DynoScout wrote: ↑Sat Apr 28, 2018 5:54 am In a universe that is just about on-field football, Guice can lead the NFL in rushing behind that Washington OL.

Re: Guice not top 3 RB to NFL
Redskins senior VP of player personnel Doug Williams said he is not worried about second-round RB Derrius Guice.
Williams seemed to shoot down rumors of off-field concerns. "For this kid, who doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke, hasn’t been arrested, no failed drug tests," Williams said. "He’s a happy-go-lucky kid." Williams also said he grew up in the same area as Guice, so he understands what it took for him to get where he is today. It is looking like Washington got a steal late in the second round.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Very nice piece on Guice. I'm a fan. I think a year from now we're gonna look back on all this off-field stuff as nothing but pre-draft fluff. I think he'll flourish better in a locker room that embraces his personality, unlike a place like NE that wants an army of robots lol.
I feel like the combine questions probably happened and his agent probably tried to put the toothpaste back in the tube by putting the gag order on him...but the damage was done to his stock. On the bright side going in the 2nd round as opposed to late 1st means he gets his 2nd contract a year earlier so it might work out anyway but he's gotta keep his nose clean going forward, the TMZ vultures will be lurking lol.
