Why isn't AJ Dillon going higher in rookie drafts?

[Ice]

FYI, The Packers had no issues ejecting on Lacy. They know more than most the shelf life of RB's.

To be fair Lacy did himself in. He didnt get the right support from the Pack he needed, but at the end of the day he ate himself out of a great career. Which I hate to say, but that was just his coping mechanism, and the Packers being a terrible organization let him fall through.

My take was Lacy was a One Contract Player back then. I felt he had lower body issues that went beyond his weight. Don't buy organizational issues. The dude was a man and was responsible. Not always someone else's fault.

BTW, I am not a Pack fan at all.

Oh well Back to Dillon. Time will tell but he is not really the kind of back I invest in.

This dude got a comically oversized lower body



It's like someone copy/pasted two different torsos and legs together

He literally tweeted about eating McDonalds before team meals.

I'd say the torso is human, and those legs came off a horse. On steroids.

He looks better than Lacy did at any point in his career.

Not sure why anybody is surprised with the photo (not saying here, just have heard some elsewhere). We saw him at the combine. It's like hearing Swift is doing well in passing drills. Or Ruggs looks fast. LOL.

Man, the things you guys argue about. He's a mid 2nd round pick. There are no sure things there. But he's a better bet than any other player there.

Well that's a statement that can be argued in and of itself. You don't have to participate, if you find it petty, or silly, or whatever you are trying to say here. Maybe you could give us some guidelines on what to argue about, to keep us in line, Dad.

you be a good boy now. don't do anything stupid.

And that was the Packers fault how again?

I thought you'd like one. It's tongue in cheek. We are all pretty opinionated on here. We do argue about some pretty funny stuff. I think it's the fact we haven't had an off season of OTA's, and the very season itself is and was at risk. We're getting it all out.

I never said it was the Packers fault. His success was in spite of himself and he screwed it up anyway. My point is AJ Dillon seems to care quite a bit more about conditioning, nutrition, and being a professional athlete than Lacy ever did. Or if he's eating like Lacy and still has 7% body fat he won the genetic megamillions.

This is what happens when we don't get a preseason

Took him yesterday at 1.13 for team one. Moss went 1.12.

My hope was that one of the two would be available to me, and I felt fortunate that I ended up with the RB that I wanted. Due to the format, if all he really does this year is short-yardage, I think he'll at least be flex worthy at times this season. Frankly, I feel that way about Moss as well.

I won't wade into the whole, "Will they extend Jones?" discussion. I've no clue. But either way, I think Dillon (and Moss) are the best backs available after the Big 5, and neither is too expensive to add.

He went at 4.01 in my 10 team IDP salary cap league. We draft 4 rounds in the spring right after the NFL draft, so the dust was still settling. I passed on him at 3.08 for a defensive player. I also own Jones in that league so I've been kicking myself in the rear all summer. I was able to trade a future 3rd round pick for him last week, so I feel much better about myself now!

Packers RB Aaron Jones said the team is working towards a new deal for him.

Basically the DeMarco Murray/Derrick Henry dynamic, except Jones is younger than Murray was.

It's going to be a while before Dillon is the guy. A new deal presumably is going to keep Jones on the team for at least 2-3 years before there's no dead money.
