Yeldon didn't start his whole career at Ala and was 3rd best back his whole career. Almost like his pro career, not to mention how over drafted he was. He was a 4th round talent at best and 90 % on this board knew it. I'm sure you fell in that 10% that didn't though

SMH Nothing wrong with taking a RB at the top of the 2nd if he was good enough but Yeldon never showed any traits in college to make you think that. His best attribute was his blocking ability and you don't take a RB in the 2nd because of his blocking (04-20-2019, 07:43 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote:(04-20-2019, 07:36 PM)JackCity Wrote: I don't think Harris was better than Yeldon as a college back.

Yeldon had 3800 yards and 39 TDs in 3 seasons, Harris had 3400 and 25 in 4. And no I didn't, I wanted Duke Johnson in the 3rd or 4th We show less advertisements to registered users.

Yeldon had a much better oline and Harris still has a better ypc avg. Toby Gerhart had over 2000 yards his senior season. As many Ala games as ive seen though i didnt realize how good of a receiver Harris is, had over 200 yards and 20 catches this past season, more than any Yeldon had had in any season and that was one of his selling points. Would love it if we somehow came away with Harris. That said we would probably have to take him with our 1st 3rd round pick and I dont want a RB that high (04-20-2019, 08:43 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote:(04-20-2019, 07:53 PM)JackCity Wrote: It wouldn't be a big surprise for Henderson or Sanders to be drafted in the 2nd at all, in fact I'd even say it's pretty likely. I see you missed the point of the stats. You said Yeldon didn't even start his whole career at Alabama, yet he outproduced Harris. Yeldon outproduced him as a receiver too. So it doesn't really mean much for you to knock him in that regard as you are knocking Harris too. Harris is a solid all around back, much like Yeldon. Just not anything worth paying a 2nd rounder for, and if I was listing our RBs for the Jaguars to target he would probably finish outside the top 10

To say he isnt even a top 10 RB is funny to me. I bet he is a top 5 back taken I also bet that Harris goes on to be a starter in career, something Yeldon can never say unless he is talking about High School maybe (04-20-2019, 09:01 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote:(04-20-2019, 08:54 PM)JackCity Wrote: I see you missed the point of the stats.

List of RBs for the Jaguars to target , which is not the same as a ranking of RBs. In the same way that a list of WRs the Jaguars should target would not be the same as my actual ranking of WRs overall We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Not trying to bad mouth Yeldon because I thought he had the best season of his career but to quit on the team last season was his last straw

If they also have the size and inside running to take over if Fournette goes then all the better but they are bonus traits. Harris is more your standard between the tackles runner who isn't very explosive and his limited receiving generally came on screens and dump offs. Good solid back, but we need a different style for this new offense

That said if a better overall back is available do you still take the elusive pass catching back or do you take the better overall back. Either way I think we wait till later in the draft and see who falls to us. I think Thompson is a serious target for us (04-20-2019, 09:27 PM)flgatorsandjags Wrote:(04-20-2019, 09:19 PM)JackCity Wrote: *My rankings of the RBs the Jaguars should target It's tough because there are a lot of backs I like that I wouldn't classify as filling that specific role...but could take over for Fournette and be a long time starter. So do you draft your Fournette replacement or your space back or take the best of both worlds ( but those guys are likely gone before we pick). Yeah Thompson would be near the top. So powerful for a smaller guy too We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Can't criticize the 1st 3 picks, but I would not personally go this route. They need a better tight end than Moreau which hurts Foles' chances of success. I do think Oliver will be very good, but would have to take Hockenson due to immediate need. McGary and Thompson, however, are very good picks.
My biggest gripe was not getting a top notch TE. Other than that, it was solid.
