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.

He will have 1038 Yards Rushing 4.8 YPC and around 450 Yard Receiving [Reply]
The more I read up on this kid the more I like the pick. Yeah, he's going to put up some decent personal stats, but he's going to open up the offense for others. Watch Hill have an incredible years as teams will not be able to man up and shade coverage his way.
Love that we have a GM and HC that are playing chess instead of checkers. [Reply]
People...this is not hard. There will be no shared backfield. CEH is your day one starter and he is going to absolutely FLOURISH in this offense. Pay attention to the below tells. This guy isnt coming in here to play behind or share a backfield with Damien Williams. DWill will spell CEH for a handful of touches a game.
1.) CEH is the only back Andy Reid has EVER drafted in the first round.
2.)Mahomes hand picked this dude.
3.) Reid came right out and said CEH is better than Westbrook (fringe HOF back).
4.) Veach all but tossed Williams under the bus with his comment regarding "we were tired of getting a gain of two on first down when everything was blocked up. CEH will turn that into a gain of 7-8 and put Pat in 2nd and short. I dont know how a defense stops that."
CEH makes this offense so much more explosive and you better damn well believe Reid and Veach are counting down the days to showcase their new toy. [Reply]

Why would you want year 2?
I'd take year 3 anytime: less carries and yet more ypc (+more tds); it would mean the guy isn't getting worn down as much and since you aren't relying on him carrying the lions share of the offense, it also means other parts of the offense is firing on all cylinders. [Reply]

and no OTA's and maybe a weird training camp with a really complex offense.
He's going to play plenty, but I doubt he's day one starter snaps type of thing.
I expect he'll have packages from the get-go, but I doubt he's got the whole offense day one. [Reply]
