HB meet your new best friend

Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who grew up in Baton Rouge, was asked what it will be like playing with Tyrann Mathieu.

Lots of TruFan are pissed on Facebook. That makes me feel a lot better about this pick.

Christ almighty this dude’s strengths fit Andy Reid about as well as any offensive player in this goddamn draft

Can cut-and-go without stopping anywhere on field
Quick gather and cut agility laterally or on downhill flow
Has spin move, elongated jump cut, and sudden double cut in his bag
Makes tacklers miss in a phone booth
Instinctive eyes and feet make him unpredictable
Alters run tempo at times to con flowing linebackers
Squares pads and falls forward to finish
Has instant access to burst and sharp one-cut angles
Runs crisp routes out of backfield
YAC are automatic
Kick returner for three years

A- on the pick from Yahoo:

I’m still trying to find out how 36% of his carries went for first downs or TDs. That’s fucking Jamaal Charles territory

Guy seems to fit the RBbC with his number of touches per game. Liked that he had only 2 fumbles all year only losing one of those.

If anybody wants a good laugh, go into the draft forum and visit the pinned “Prospect visits” thread and click on Clyde Edward Helaire’s link in the original post. It will take you to a scouting report done by the Draft Network.

I think Jake F or frozenchief wrote the scouting report....

He fumbled on .4 of 1% of his touches last year

Great pick. Yeah, his weakness is pass protection. So what. Mahomes had 14 regular season games last year and only 17 sacks.

Your offense just went from “stupid good” to “best ever?” so enjoy it.
