Sorry bro, work got in the way of making my pick at 127. Id take Lattimore over both of them. If he was healthy hes the best back in this draft hands down and the best Ive seen on the college level since Adrian Peterson. His character is solid, his work ethic is solid. He can pick up a blitz, catch the ball and run between the tackles with power or elusiveness. Michael and Bell and some of the others are good values but I'm thrilled with my pick. Lattimore is a freak of nature though. Hes already running at his pro day and vowed to be ready for the season.
You are. Also Lattimore is the most talented back in this draft. Not sure if he can be a guy that has over 150 carries a season.
I'm not a big fan of Goodwin, but he could get drafted a lot higher if a team falls in love with his speed.
With my stable of backs he may never have to be. Trent Richardson-Bryce Brown-Shonn Greene - Knowshon Moreno-Lattimore..and so he has all the time he needs to heal. Given his talent and character though, I bet the house on him. Love the way he plays and the way he works.
Al Davis would be proud of me. Perhaps even Shula, could I have the "Marks Brothers 2.0?" Time will tell. I do know that teams will have to respect the speed.
I really liked what I saw from Goodwin at the senior bowl. I saw him laying out of balls. That backfield is redonk.
Thank you. Where is the chart for draft pick points? I need to take a look at that, just see how far I can trade up if I want to.
Thanks, I found one and I have no pick ammo... so I have gone into another mode and I am offering players. Of course, I don't expect to get any bites but I should at least try.
next time you'll learn to stock on picks, this is one of the fun parts of this ordeal we call the GML
That's why he's not worried about Lattimore's injury history. Cause he'd never see the field with those guys in front of him ;p
I kept falling in to good ones. What am I supposed to do when i had no other major positions of need? Pass on them for you? In all seriousness, cant ever have too many good players. I wouldnt fault you if you did take Manuel even though I dont ever see him being a good QB in the NFL.
This actually made me LOL. No, the reason Im not worried about Lattimore is because Im a Carolina alumni and I'm fully versed on how hard he works. I think down the road he will be at least as good as Richardson and ends up starting for someone.
That was part of the process when I took Christine. Was there actually carries to give. I figured if I kept Spiller/Hunter about the same...and raised Goodson moderately to around 50-60 carries then there would actually be some carries to go around in a run heavy offense. Plus all my guys are more home run hitters. Needed some short yardage guys and Christine was the definition of a short yardage guy while being in the doghouse (12TD's on the goal line).
I don't know how long he has, but he knows he is up I believe. He was/is online and looking at the draft thread.
Pete with the stalking. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Duss is like "meh I'll do it tomorrow." Who gave the Lions draft picks?
my guy should probably go in the next round but screw it. if buffalo or Baltimore takes him, I swear to god it won't be pretty. fair warning.
Sorry guys. Just got into work (takes over an hour...plus time to settle in). Updating my sheets and I should have my pick in the next 15 - 20 (on my phone)
