I mean, what did you watch and play in the fall? Like it
October November? I did definitely like the Michigan
game. I saw that. And right. I mean, he caught my eye when
I was going back yesterday.
And like, going, let me watch 10 more plays of each guy just
so I can get feel good about my order, right? And all that. My
son came in when he was watching and he goes, oh, you
you, you said he was gonna be awesome. I remember watching
him this year and I'm in college you, you. You said, you
liked him and I was like, I did, you're right.
I was blown away by him when turning filming like them even
more than you thought. Without a doubt. He is the best running
back in this draft. I have no questions about that. No
questions about that.
He's everything he does everything. We just talked
about with Bruce Hall. Yeah, except he runs angrier. He
breaks more tackles and he breaks more ankles.
So, I want to go.
Okay. Wait, there's the same guy
except one and they're
equally as fast, except one guy has more.
And does more with less
and that's what I would just go.
Okay, that's to me a slam dunk. That this is the best running
back in this trap. His lead quality is his lead quality
mmmm.
And while you're thinking, I'll throw out because he's an elite
in the few areas in my opinion, for 38 at the combine. Exactly
438 of the combine.
Yeah, you know, so
I guess you would start there to go. He's a lead in that area
speed. Yeah. I mean, he's he's
to me got Hmm, got a lot of things, I like,
you know, a natural feel for running. Like I talked with
James Cook where he runs up in the line of scrimmage and there
isn't like. Oh wait. There's no hole. Let me just sit here and
wait, it's just like he naturally finds the bounce lane
or the
The lane or whatever else.
He's got great vision for cut back Lanes.
So he's great there. It's huge. But then like
other than the kid from Florida.
That's the most violent runner in this draft.
I mean, it's it's like, oh wait, I have no way to shake
you out here. Do anything? Screw it. I'm alone, my
shoulder and you're gonna pay for
this being here in this position to me that jumped out.
I haven't watched him as much as you want to watch that. You
saw during the fall quite a bit. And like, even before you
notice the speed, you notice how comfortable he is with
contact man,
does. He not care about it. Right? Right. Yeah, you know
contact balance. Going through the hole gets hit hard on
the shoulder. He still running, you know, somebody has their arms
around them. And it looks like they're gonna drag him down and
he drags himself out of it and it's
running and then then run through 10 yards
and then plants his foot in the ground and Jukes the s... out
of the guy and then runs 25 yards up the field more. And
there's so many unbelievable runs where you go, that should
have been a 5-yard gain. He got 25, that should have been
a loss of two when he got.
There. That's where I just came away with it and just went.
Whoa.
Here's an awesome one. Yeah, please go ahead or PFF, led
the nation in broken tackles. Okay, that's that's all go. But then
after the comma one, fumble
traveled one time
while seeking out and excelling
and kind of successor on that much contract, right? I know,
I know it said that, that says a lot, you would looked up.
I love his body.
It's rocked up. It's a different.
It's a different rocked up than the rest of the group,
you know, and again, I haven't seen him with his
shirt off yet, but I would think he's an Adonis
and the way his legs are and then his neck.
And that, I mean,
it just his body, looks like power. Even before you turn on
the film. You just go, this guy's great, you know, and
then, you know, of course, the film backs it up, but, you
know, the ability to stick the foot in the ground.
The ability to also leave like we talked about with the other
guys, but also can just break you down and cross you. Over
like you know,
Barry Sanders is right. He gets a guy. Oh my gosh, that looks
silly. He made that guy missing keeps going. He has that,
you know, the acceleration is
off the charts that way past Pro need some help. Okay,
definitely does. And again, it's not a like it's not a
smart thing or a
He just he looks too. Like
he takes the easy way out. He looks to
let me get the, let me get down low and chop his leg out or let
me I don't want to square them up here. I just ran the ball.
Five times in a row. Let me kind of just stay on the edge
and wait and try to hit him on the side and knock them out
that way. There's definitely some of that
and he also only had 18 career catching. Yeah, it's not a lot.
There's not a lot. You're not do that. That's something
you're going to have to kind of figure out as you go. You're
driving this guy to be your Bell cow where you drop and be
your Superstar.
Drafting him in the end of the first round. Yeah, I am.
You know, again, we know the running back where it goes from
there and all that but you know,
I would think he's
the guy that and Bruce Hall to I understand it but this guy
more so for me,
yeah that you would be thinking
we could take this guy in the end of the first and feel
awesome about it. You've touched on this a little bit,
but I want to kind of roll it out. Here is the hammer because
so many people are thinking about res Hall against Kenneth
Walker's or top back. Which one goes in the first round,
the biggest difference between the two
Uh to is Walker makes so much more with less, right? That
would be my biggest thing
where I came away with briefs Hall too many times going. Ah,
like I told you he should have split that guy
or hit it harder and he would had a 30 yard game, but he got 8
and again still there's still a lot of other runs the other
way. Again, we're being picky about the top two running backs
in the draft. Yeah, Walker, there's so many plays were in
that same play ago.
He hit it. He split the guys. I didn't even touch him or or
they did touch him and it
Matter and he just ran through it
or, you know, and I thought he was clearly more elusive than
Bruce Hall with the ability to make people miss and do that.
So
that's where, you know, I thought he was better really in
about
every area of briefs. All I went
check Kenneth Walker Kenneth Walker, you know, both can go
70 to the house,
you know, but Walker was quicker to accelerate and
quicker in general quicker to see the bounce Lanes, right?
Right.
Also better, between the tackles. I'm writing. I'm
letting you ruin my thesis here, the end, the last
paragraph. Walker also better between the tackles as far as
tough yards. Getting you know, 513 was there,
you know, make someone Miss breaks tackles makes another
guy Miss for 10 yard gain, you know, I wrote his Visions
better than Hall. Walker need need to see more in the pass
game. Doesn't do it much like I wrote
and then I wrote no question. Walker makes more with Wes
wakes
way more yards. After contact and breaks more ankles, right?
And I just can't get over how violent he is. A runner. He
reminds me
of Joe Mixon.
Nice. Yeah, I mean top three right back. Real, a production
was a shorter Joe Mixon. He's shorter. Joe Mixon, the style
and when she runs the way he's rocked up. He's shorter. Joe
Mixon to me.
So, as I pointed out before, I mean, with the exception of
Take One Berkeley though, the running backs in the first
round. The last four years have been 24 to 32. Yeah. You said,
you think he goes somewhere in the 20s.
Do you think he's the one who goes somewhere?
R before that 24, we haven't seen it. Besides Berkeley in
four years. Does he get consideration in the mid to
late teens? I don't think he will
die because of him or because of what the lie. I think
the league in general. I don't think it's because of him, you
know, I don't you know, and I'm sitting here looking at the end
of the first round just going.
Is there anybody here that maybe they
that would make sense. Like
and I look at
Buffalo 25. Well like Devin Singletary. I mean man, I don't
know. I look at Kenneth's Walker guy. He could change
your racing team. He could change your team. Maybe Josh
salad wouldn't have to run 98
on Third and two you not to worry about Alan. Now, you got
a guy that'll do it right here. You know, let alone old man. We
gotta defend him and no.
You look at
yeah, there's some teams here that mean, Tampa Bay.
I know they could look at it and go. This is icing on
the cake. We got our offense is kind of set. What Leonard
fournette is kind of a one year deal. Going to be kind of done
here. Ronald Jones just left him free agents, right? Yeah,
right.
So I look at that to go. There's another one but
we'll see. I would say more likely than not. It'll end up
being in the second round. Yeah. And again, I don't have
a feel for the total draft yet. But I do think there's a ton of
demons alignment and offensive lineman that are going to get
drafted and because of the depth of the running back class
that might hurt. Some of these guys from going in the first,
