Quote:I guess it helps your case when you don't bring up receiving yards or total scrimmage yards and TDs or the fact Cooks been doing this for 3 years now.
Of course Cook will have more receiving yards. Have you seen the Longhorns? Their lack of a QB is largely why they suck so bad. If you look at what I posted, I did mention touchdowns. Cook has 3 more than Foreman, but Foreman has a lot more rushing yards.

Quote:and a real FB. I want to go back to hard nosed football
Agreed. We do need a FB. I keep forgetting about that.

Quote:Foreman in the 2nd is probably the smartest choice, but will he last till then?
I doubt it. If he comes out, I believe his stock will skyrocket as we get closer to the draft. I believe he's the best football player in the country. I would have no problem spending a top 5 pick on him, as long as we used other picks to address the O-Line.

Quote:That's a big back. Is he fast? Or just taking advantage of weaker competition? D'onta Foreman 6'1' 249 lbs. That is with pads on or off?
That's what Texas list him as, but watching him play, he looks big. As far as being fast, I have no idea what his 40 time is, but it seems like at least once a game, he hits the open field and is able to break free from the opposition, so he definitely has game speed.
Here is some of his highlights.

I'd like to see him run in the 4.5s. But I feel he will be in the 4.6s.

He looks faster than 4.6 to me, but even so, LeVeon Bell ran 4.60 at his Combine and he's one of the top RB's in the NFL.

Quote:No thank you on Cook. We have to many needs at other positions.
How many players have the talent of Cook in the upcoming draft? He's basically LeSean McCoy 2.0. You saw what version 1 did to us and the Bills Oh line isn't that great.

Looks like a slower Greg Jones. Naw.

Huh? Greg Jones never ran away from opposing defenses like that. Jones couldn't hold Foreman's jock.

Dalvin Cook will be an injury issue in the NFL for sure. No thanks.

Foreman is slow.

Quote:Foreman is slow.
According to the following article, the Texas staff timed him and he ran a sub. 4.4/40.

In a class this deep all the value is in the 3rd for me.

Quote:He is a good RB but not good enough to draft in the top 5
It's ok man. He can't hurt you anymore after this year.

Quote:How do you know?
Because he played last year on a bum hamstring and was still effective and had shoulder surgery before the season.

Foreman also plays in arguably the worst conference for defense.

You're really reaching now.

He reminds me of Eddie Lacy, that's not the kind of back we need. Doubt he runs sub 4.4. Probably 4.6 4.7.
