I think, with this specific OLine, an opportunity is wasted by not having a capable/elite RB - and that's aside from the positive impact it would have on the passing game.

I mean, kind of?

Not many mid late round Wr's come in an immediately go for 1k.

From a salary standpoint, you definitely can't say it.

A great RB makes a crappy QB ok. A good RB makes a great QB deadly

Kareem Hunt was a really good RB here. Elite is strong, but Jamall sure. It just didn't equate to wins. The RB position has been shown to be reliant on the OL so much more than vice versa, so I don't really care to much about the "Long run positive play" stuff, we have an ELite OL.

You're completely backwards. If running the ball is easier when you have a great QB, you don't need a great RB. When you have Tannehill, having Henry matters.

If you don't have the QB nothing matters.

Man, I really like our RBs. CEH, Pacheco, and McKinnon are going to be fun to watch.

the first point is totally open for debate. The second is silly.

agree with him. QB is what you seek. Unless you already have the best.

Just based on Toub's comments about Pacheco, it seems they're really opening the door wide for him to make it. Throw Mahomes' comments on top of that, it kind of feels like he could be a lock.

What I didn't expect is for this kid to possibly and potentially yank a roster space from Ronald Jones. And honestly, it makes me a little more excited to watch this kid in action.

Let's not over hype the kid. I'd say probably only D for his rookie season.

I won’t take him any higher than third overall in my fantasy draft

I would say A. I think this kid is explosive and he may only get 700 yards but then again he is a rookie and Andy does not run the damn rock. If he did run the rock then put me down for A. We will see what Andy has in store this season for this awesome RB! Love the guy and hope he succeeds! :-)
