I know we didn't have a ton of cash and Pop is a decent back, but what would Saquon have looked like in our offense? He got just under $38 million over 3 years, which is a chunk. Had we not given Trav additional cap room (for no additional years) and restructured a few other deals, maybe?

How is this Boise St running back's pro potential looking like? I wouldn't mind seeing the Chiefs trade up for him around pick 20 if he's still there if he's going to be a special RB.
We might have undervalued the RB position a bit too much, a truly great one can still make a difference. ESPECIALLY when you already have a great QB.
The last time we drafted a first round RB stud coming out of college we got this:

Draft an Achane-type speed RB to compliment Pacheco on day two or three of the draft [Reply]
Yep, should’ve signed Saquon and also not waste 1st and 2nd round draft picks on Mecole, CEH, Skyy, Felix Uzomah, George Karlaftis, Breeland Speaks, Bryan Cook, and Juan Thornhill. 8 totally wasted high round picks since 2018. [Reply]
I think I read somewhere he wanted to go to Philadelphia because it was close to his family. But for sure, obviously any team should have tried to get him.
I remember when he was drafted thinking that once he lined up behind the Eagles OL, which I think is the best in the league, he would have a spectacular year. I tried to get him on my fantasy teams and was successful on four. They are obviously doing well.
After watching tonight‘s game, I’m not so sure that it’s Detroit we will be facing in the Super Bowl. It might well be the Eagles. And they will be a lot better than the last time. That’s due to both Barkley and Carter. In fact, I think Carter is having a better year at DT then Jones. But I’ll still put my faith in Mahomes working his magic. But it will be another really exciting Super Bowl whether we face the Eagles or the Lions. [Reply]
Worse yet: Franco Harris wasn’t signed & there are STILL multiple candy wrappers scattered in the stairwell at the Arrowhead corporate offices. Dammit Pioli! :-) [Reply]
