The wisdom of drafting Saquon Barkley No. 1; value free agents - NFL.com (http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000920308/article/the-wisdom-of-drafting-saquon-barkley-no-1-value-free-agents)

If a great RB is available and he is BPA you draft him where you can get him.

A RB most likely has 4-5years with the first team to draft them, then likely won't see the second contract with the same team. I don't think Elliot is a Cowboy in 2022, unless he takes a seriously undervalued contract. Nearly every other position, if the player is a star, you hope for 8-12, or like Scherff and Williams you hope for 10 to 15.

A RB in the first round has to be a superstar to be worth it. Maybe Barkley is, but most aren't

Exactly, Gruden has a totally different relationship with the players than Williams does. Did we already forget the king of coach speak Joe Gibbs? In public he would never say anything bad about his guys. It’s just part of the job.

And if you read between the lines it’s not hard to see what Gruden is really saying.

This sorta thing used to be referred to as "Having Class."

I know it's a foreign idea these days but it use to be as long you were employed or employing someone you kept up a good face towards each other for the sake of the companies reputation.

I for one prefer this type of behavior as apposed to someone such as Hue in Cleveland who likes to publicly take shots at his team/players.

If you take a look over the last 15 years also, with the exception of Flacco and Foles all the Super Bowl winners had elite QBs or QBs playing at an elite level, but the way people talk you would think to never take a RB ever, just UDFA every year

The running game is only going to reach a certain level with Jay as the HC/OC. And thats okay because hes very creative and efficient with the passing game.

I think giving him a high draft pick RB will only move the run game forward so far especially in comp to how that same pick could help other positions.

I would draft a RB late and not over react to the bad luck the team had with injuries at that position last year.

I agree and I think that Cleveland has to start to do things to build the rest of that team like a running back.I said before if they don't take him the Giants will. Now they could trade that pick for a whole shit load of picks put who knows. I think if he is gone the Giants trade down in the draft.

Here's to the Browns doing the smart thing and taking Barkley #1 to keep him OUT of our division.

The giants could easily bounce back next year and I don't even want to think about Barkley, Odell, Shepard and Engram on third downs.

Just like they picked Wentz to keep him out of the division. Never trust the Browns lol.
