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.

Ok, go ahead and explain to us why Veach and Reid chose CEH over this can't miss, star prospect in Taylor. Why did Mahomes want him over Taylor?
Go. Explain to us all why he's still on the board.
LSU used CEH in the passing game, something that interests the Chiefs, get this kid out space with ball in hand. And it makes all the sense in the world.
I just think Taylor is the better RB and so far his production has proven that.
A 220 pound RB with 4.3 speed who scored 60 TD's rushed for over 6000 yards in three seasons and ya can't use him.....huh? [Reply]
Wasn't CEH's 40 time a beat up injured CEH running far slower than normal?
Look at the tape his 10 speed is phenomenal. Taylor will never put up the numbers CEH will and if he does I think he'll be Larry Johnson and hit a wall. Lots of tread on those tires. [Reply]

Taylor is bigger, more powerful, gained far more NCAA yards, ran a far faster 40, scored far more TD;s.
So what are we going with?
They are both starting from scratch in the NFL. We'll see. Both are likely to be good in their own ways.
Helaire will be a Marshall Faulk, Curtis Martin, Brian Westbrook type of player. Taylor is more of a straight-up the middle, Adrian Peterson type back.
Helaire has traits that far better fit KC's offense though, no matter what shit you spit out today. [Reply]

Scout on Taylor, not even mentioning his EIGHTEEN FUCKING FUMBLES

I’ve seen it where NFL running back coaches can get that out (of players). That was the big knock on Le’Veon (Bell) coming out, that he didn’t run very big.” He posted a Wonderlic score of 21 and is from tiny Salem, N.J. “Melvin Gordon was different,” said a fourth scout. “He was slick and explosive and made big plays all the time. This guy is strong, not powerful. Excellent vision, excellent patience. Kind of a typical Wisconsin back. He just might have more of the workout-type attributes that you’re looking for. I’d rather have Gordon, all day.”
