Quote:Back to back years with 'generational talents.' At the same position no less. That's wild.


Generational talent RB taken top 10 in the last 10 years.

The hits:

Adrian Peterson

Ezekiel Elliott (probably)

Todd Gurley (maaaaybe)


Misses:

Trent Richardson

CJ Spiller

Reggie Bush

Darren McFadden


So we have 7 generational talents in the last decade (maybe we should retire that phrase) and being generous you can only call 3 of them hits, two of which are premature. Hell if we only go back 11 years we can add 3 more top 5 RBs to the list with Ronnie Brown, Cadillac Williams, and Cedric Benson. Some pretty solid years mixed in there among those 3, but none of them would go near that high on any kind of redraft mocks.


That would make 1 hit, 2 hopefully/maybe, and 7 nopes...perhaps it's worth overthinking.


Who in the world called half the guy you listed as generational? Oh, and some draft picks busted? Who would've thought!?


I really like the idea of draft Myles Garrett but Clowney looks like a bust. Darn.


The rational of not drafting a player like Fournette because of OL isn't good right now is terrible too. Use your cap space and other draft picks and fix the line. If you were running our team in 1998 you would've skipped over Fred Taylor because we just spent a high draft pick in James Stewart.
