These numbers above are fine especially when you have qb who is a star running for nearly 900 yds last year himself.
Where are you seeing they want to upgrade from Robinson?

Not really telling the whole story here. BRob is slow, Brob is limited with vision and is a plodder at the los. He has a place on the team, not a 3 down back. He had a great game vs Detroit in the playoffs. Other 2 games he was ineffective.
You add better talent in the backfield, it’s gonna benefit JD5 and open up our offense even more. He doesn’t even need to be a 3 down back. Eckler missed a lot of time last year, thinking ahead to grab a replacement that could replace mcpickles/Eck should be top of mind.
I think Peters very well could big game hunt at the draft grabbing WR/RB and even late round TE. TE is really deep this year
