What we really need is a big, fat run stuffer. I think we should take a run at Bennie Logan or the big dude from Atlanta in FA. If we don't sign one of those two, then Vea would be very high on my wish list.

I tend to agree, but if read somewhere that Payne has room on his frame to add weight and that he's good at getting a good inside push to disrupt run lanes, so he might be able to fill that role. I also really really like Tim Settle as a 2nd round option.

He's already about 20 lbs heavier than Allen. This NFL profile says he'll be the premier run stuffer in the draft.

I don't understand the scoring. Your worst pick is an A-, how can the overall grade be a B? Makes no sense. Everyone's seem to be like that.

Would you trade a 2019 1st into the top 5 for Barkley?

No way.

I like Barkley a lot, and wouldn't pass him up if he falls to the Redskins, but an elite RB is not something I'd ever trade for. Significant contributors at RB can be found in the mid rounds every year. RBs also don't have longevity, it's just not a good long term return on investment.

Imo he is a guy that could put us over the top with Smith tho, I would certainly entertain it at the very least. RB's are easy to fill but ELITE RB's are very far and few between.

We aren't one player away from going over the top. Elite RBs are rare, that's true, but they get injured as often as non elite. Also, name me an elite RB that has won a Superbowl in the past 10 years.

A. Barkley
B. Nelson
C. Ridley
D. Vea
E. R. Smith
F. None of the above

Barkley no doubt, and I do believe he could help us win the east. Not saying SB but also who thought Philly would? It can happen man

And Philly's elite RB is...?

I know that's not your point, but it is mine. They traded up to get their franchise QB, that's much different. They also stackes their lines. They did not add an elite RB to take them over the top.

very true, I do think we def need a Guard and a Center to solidify that line. Hope we get most of our holes filled this OS
