Some fun here. Edwards-Helaire rushed for 1,415 yards and 16 touchdowns as a junior .. all-purpose yards -- receiving (55 receptions, 453 yards) and kick returner (KEY) 10 returns, 214 yards pic.twitter.com/3Duq1jjy6J
Holy offense Bat Man. I love Clyde Edwards-Helaire. He is best Rb in the draft. Watkins and Hill deep. Kelce in the middle. And Edwards-Helaire underneath. Good Luck defenses.
Brett Veach told Andy Reid to watch some Clyde Edwards-Helaire film and told Reid you’ll see Brian Westbrook. Reid watched. Then got back to Veach and said he’s better than Westbrook.
when we win another Super Bowl and I'm the GM I'd ask Patrick who we should draft with our first pick
CEH had a great rookie campaign and everyone loved him then he got hurt and this year he was getting back to excelling but running backs get hurt so that happened again he was and is still a great pick if only he can stay healthy. [Reply]

He was averaging like a yard or 2 a carry before he got hurt. When the line gives him holes that are 10 feet wide, he's been good. But when it's just normal sized holes, he goes back to being shit. [Reply]

He kicked ass last year till he got hurt.
This year I think he just hasn't found his groove but he was going get there. I don't know how he will be after this injury I hope it's not major sit back but I expect him get healthy and Excell in this offense. I am still hopeful for him to have great seasons and contribute to winning championships but he does have to stay healthy. [Reply]

I don't think he has the build to seek out contact like he has in the NFL. I know he's tough and tough to bring down (at least he was in the start of 2020), but he's not going to last if he keeps meeting LB's head on in the open field. [Reply]

Who cares? Just move on. It's obvious he's a JAG. Some people want to hold out hope that he will actually be something. IMO he won't. He's too small and slow and on top of that he is injury prone. You can't do anything about those who don't see that...Meck knows his stuff. He has his reasons for holding out. [Reply]
With all due respect to Meck and Raspy, both guys I like very much... I'm not gonna miss Clyde one little bit
Sorry, not sorry
Yes he had a couple 100 yard days this year, but in my VERY honest opinion... he left a shitload of yards on the field, and always does
Some of the gaping maws opened for him are just begging to be exploited for 30-40-50 yards, and he gets 10-15... even the best GMs make mistakes, and this was one for Veach [Reply]

Our offensive line is REALLY good.
The interior of our Oline is fucking elite. Thuney,Humphrey, and Smith are all going to be All-Pro at some point. Our OT's aren't fantastic but they are solid. We should have a dominant running game. Many teams can create a good running game with his 2 good run blockers. We have 3 side-by-side with the other 2 being solid. Defenses are set to stop the pass too.
Why isn't our running game in the Top-3?
Coaching? RB? Both?
Parker says that CEH is Emmitt Smith, but wouldn't Smith would be averaging about 7 yards a carry behind this line? [Reply]

I don't follow college ball at all, but wtf did our scouting department see in this guy? Whatever it was, it is clearly not translating to this level.
This is me I don't particularly care for college football and seldom watch till the bowl games and championship. I did read a lot about his wonders from CP. I wasn't wanting to draft an RB I wanted an O-line or linebacker. I had no clue of this guy but what I read and I was swayed. I could see last year he was bad in pass protection and figured he would get better. He seemed to have some power to move a pile but got caught in the backfield a lot. I thought it was the o line. When he couldn't catch the ball out in the flat and we wouldn't run screens I got concerned. This year sealed the deal for me that he will be a jag and probably won't get a second contract. I just got to wonder if everything got screwed with covid in scouting and relied on tape and coaching evaluations from his college coaches. He looks like a guy you take a chance on in late rounds.
