Does it involve a blockbuster trade for jake butt?
Don't put it past him. That may be in mock draft 3

Anyone else here think Ronald Jones could be a total bust. I cant quite get my opinion on this guy. I feel like he should be a Wide reciever not a running back lol

I feel like Wadley and Love are more 'true' running backs.
Idk, but ive started to love Love lol. His first name isnt Bryce its Jonathan. Lol thats my name

I wouldnt mind giving Kalen Ballage a look. Not sure what range hed fall in but he could be the second comming of Blount

I've been a fan of Nelson since last year and thought we would pick him in the 1st at some point. I was honestly surprised he decided to return to Notre Dame. I still want him here and I personally think he's one of the best guard prospects to enter the draft in a while, if he's there I would be more than happy for us to take him. If he's there I definitely want us to take him.

Bryce Love is just.....well.....Lovely 
Rashaad Penny can be really impressive at times too.
This RB class is seriously loaded. Especially in the first 3 rounds

Speed wise Bryce Love, Damien Harris and Ronald Jones come to mind.
How did you figure that out.
Wadley & Love sounds like a law firm

Sounds more like a romance novel. "They were Wadley in Love".

Damien Harris is such an intriguing prospect but i have so many things that hold me back with him
1. Consistency- up until this year he was never really comsistent enough to earn the bell cow roll in Bamas offense, part of that was because he was always nicked up according to Nick Saban (who holds high praise for him)
2. Hes probably the 4th most talented RB on his own team. I think Bo, Jacobs, and Harris (the freshman, no relation) all have higher upside than Damien.
3. What is he great at? Hes just so good at everything that its hard to pinpoint what his major strenghts are. Hes powerful, faster this year now that hes healthy, pass protects well, and catches the ball out of the backfeild well.
All in all, i really want to like Damien Harris but i worry that nagging injuries and inconsistent play throughout his career will end up comming back to baltimore. Our players already struggle with consistency and injuries. Plus, none of them bring any elite level traits....im afraid Damien Harris could end up being the same thing.

Ya hes a stud. I only worry that his running style will get him hurt. Takes a lot of bodies to take him down

Apparently he sorted lot of issues by drastically changing a diet. Lost some weight, gained burst and speed, negging injuries went away (knock wood). Grew into complete back.
You are right, however - there's something that raises the alarm but what it is exactly, I have no clue.
