    Understand the point you're trying to make, but don't follow the logic.  Looking at Ole Miss' pass distribution, 72% of the passes went to the top 2 receivers and 85% to the top 3.  Knox saw less than 8% of the receptions.  If passes were distributed more evenly - as you demonstrated that Alabama's were - then Knox also could have pulled in 750 yards on 40 receptions.  The argument about pass distribution is valid.  


    did the QB just not like him or could he not get open?

    RD 3, Pick 74: RB Devin Singletary, Florida Atlantic

    I mean, I don't deny his skills. I just don't like taking small school prospects in the top 3 rounds. I gave EO a pass because of his freakish abilities and how Houston ruined his numbers playing nose. My only concern with Devin is his ability to get to the outside in the NFL, and I don't like taking RBs in the top 3 rounds if they can't get outside. 


    what about his blocking ability?

    ...which he did 7 times for 40+ yards and another 8 times for 20+ yards.  Sucks to be slow.


    against who bro? who are these elite defenders he was making look foolish with his elite 4.66-speed bro?

    My gripe is Devin Singletary has yet to establish himself against elite level competition and you guys are acting like he is shady 2.0.

    He is literally a nobody with less than 5000 views on his highlight tape. 

    He couldn't make D1

    The big name schools didn't want him. 

    that matters until proven otherwise and there is only one other player from his division currently killing it in the NFL (Kareem Hunt) and he isn't even top 10. these things matter dude.

    stop making excuses for a reach RB pick. Beane and McDermott panicked when they saw the RB run and didn't want to miss their RB the same way they missed their WR.
    They had bad 3rd round luck. I believe this will work out in the long run regardlessly. It was suboptimal though. 

    I live in Toronto and I'm a Raptors fan. I see this player similarly compared to Fred Van Vleet

    FVV was a walk-on point guard from Wichita who got paid big money once he established himself. If he got drafted in the second round, fans would have flipped, yet he didn't, and it worked out and he deserves his respect and his minutes.

    Not saying I do.  What I am saying is that what he did instead isn't a great idea value-wise.  A RB in the 3rd round I think is a fundamentally bad move.  Trading 2 4th round picks for a project TE that was a backup QB and that has never scored a TD just doesn't seem like a great idea.  Forget the players I mentioned.  They don't matter.  It's more on the fundamental decisions they made than anything else.


    it screams lack of plan B's and they started gambling w/ house money once they secured round 1&2 and players they liked started disappearing.

    pure conjecture, except most the historically good teams did not gamble this round.

    Ok, context matters.  He was on the same team as AJ Brown, the immortal DK Metcalf and a third decent WR Demarcus Lodge.  Not a lot of receptions left after those 3.  For sure, a pick based on athletic ability and potential - a projection, but has talent.


    Have you seen Alabama's passing distribution?

    here I will show you. 

    https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/pi/shareit/KYHLK

    see 4th on that list? that's a TE that put up 700+ rec yards. 

    see 2 through 5? they all have around 40 receptions. 

    see number 1? has 1300 receiving yards. 

    there is no need to make excuses. 

    he could be great, we will all wait and see!

    just stop making excuses for grown men. they don't need you to defend them.

    It’s not homerun kinda speed but have you watched him play? Or just like to read numbers on a paper? 

    True statement, yet it's a red flag that most of us have not seen him play. Also, the conference he is coming from is not exactly the most difficult for RBs to run against. there are arguably still better RBs on the board plus we just picked up Yeldon and now are RB room has 5 backs. You can play devil's advocate if you want though.
