SAFTB Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 All this QB talk is great but the safest pick, and the best pick in this draft is Penn State running back Saquan Barkley. I've watched him throughout college and he will be one of the BEST running backs to play this game when all is said and done. The things he does on the field is jaw dropping and off the field he's a stand up guy. Trade McCoy to get rid of that contract AND to get younger AND better. Trade up to #2 and get the future Hall of Famer and build around him. Sign a QB like Bradford, draft a QB in the 2nd round and let him sit a year to learn. This will get us on the path of winning consistently https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0VALn4r8mg 1 10

K D Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Barkley is the best player in the draft no doubt, but when does having the best RB win you games? Lol nice try though
blacklabel Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 Great player, but most scouts (both the online community and pro scouts) feel like Zeke and Gurley were both better backs coming out of college. As talented as he or those other two guys are, teams don't sell the farm to jump up and grab a running back. Especially not with how the game is played today.

Lol nice try though Expand Picking in the top 3-5 is about taking the sure thing and not reaching which most board members here beef about just about any other year.
BuffAlone Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) He's awesome, no doubt. But better than Wadley or Ito Smith or (insert name here) at the next level? One can NEVER tell. Hence, NO RB before 2nd or 3rd round Edited February 18, 2018 by BuffAlone

I have no idea what type of pro career Barkley will have, but it’s unreasonable to guarantee greatness as many are doing.

Augie Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 He’s no Ricky Williams! Or, maybe, we don’t have a Ditka running the show......

26CornerBlitz Posted February 18, 2018 Posted February 18, 2018 McGahee, Lynch, and Spiller. Never learn! Never! 1

Barkley is a rare talent with speed, size, shiftiness, and great hands. Expand I am not questioning that. I am saying that we have taken a RB high before. Without a decent QB, it goes nowhere. Even Fournette couldn't carry the Jags with Bortles playing like crap.
