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.

For those of you who are reminded of Barry Sanders when you watch CEH, you have to watch those games. He does his best Barry Sanders impersonations there.
And btw, when asked who he modeled himself after, his answer was Barry Sanders.
there's a lot of that in his change of direction and elusiveness.
But he'll just drop his shoulder and plow for the extra yards too, and that's kind of what makes me think of Payton. [Reply]

CEH will be fine.
Shady began the season averaging over 5.4 yards/carry. His average dropped to under 5 yards/carry after he tweaked his ankle against the Colts. [Reply]
It's a very real possibility they don't see OL as a big need. They seem to be banking on LDT returning to form and might be high on Rankins. They'll add an OL if it's BPA no doubt, but might not be in such a hurry to do so. [Reply]

Yes but none of you people have bothered to read the new CBA.
If any first rounder reaches two Pro Bowls in his first three seasons, his 5th year option then equals the Franchise Tag number.
So if CEH lives up to his potential, he'll likely be with the Chiefs for only 4 years but the Chiefs should get a high Comp Pick in return. [Reply]
3 of Belichick's 18 First round draft picks have been RB's. The only other position he's drafted MORE of in the first round is Defensive Tackle.
It's not all about the First round. Like others have said in this thread, it's about where in the First round. When you're at the end, you have your choice of elite RB's. [Reply]

I think they view IOL as something they can plug-n-play off the scrap heap. They've been treating IOL that way since Reid has been here.
And i think Veach is a "rare, uncoachable trait" kind of guy when it comes to the draft. You don't find many "rare uncoachable traits" when looking at IOL in general. [Reply]
I'm all about positional value but some people act like you can't draft Barry Sanders in round 1, Arizona played that game taking a LT over Adrian Peterson, they'd have a SB title had they taken Peterson. [Reply]
