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.

Do you think those are mutually exclusive or something? [Reply]
For a team that loves speed - I never understood why this team picked Clive over a handful of other RBs, some of who were available, namely Swift and Taylor. [Reply]

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.
Yep. The later rounds like they did with Darwin Thompson. Who was "bigger" and "faster" than CEH. Said it at the time and still can't believe they took CEH in the 1st round with his measurables. Dude is 5' 8" (on a tall day) with little to no break away speed and lacks vision. They were so enamoured with finding the "Next Brian Westbrook" that they completely blew the pick . :-) [Reply]

If they really let Mahomes make our 1st rd pick, they deserve to get fired.
Mahomes can ask for more help at RB, or WR, he can go to Andy a let him know that a player on our roster really looks good or bad so Andy can adjust. But we don't let Mahomes actually make a fucking draft pick.
Letting Patrick make a draft pick is dumber than letting Chris Jones change his position on the team.
Both players are paid very handsomely to shut the fuck up and win games, not Coach/GM. [Reply]

Here's a good example of this:
This was only a 5-yard gain, but it could have been a 2-yard loss.
