I do think it's funny how group think works. Mims becomes a board favorite and most people believe he's taken in the 1st before we even get a shot. He falls all the way to the end of the 2nd and no one has questioned why despite believing he was a top 20ish guy just yesterday.
I would've been ok with a WR, edge, guard, cb, s.

Dobbins is just an average running back. PLenty of average running backs look great in college. Look at his game, it's not special in any way. He's solid at a lot of things. Good in pass pro and stuff but hes not a WOW difference maker

he's better than justice hill though

Who i said was awful

With how interchangeable rbs are what difference does it make about his college mileage? All we need is the rookie contract out of him. I'm surprised people are actually mad at the pick.
exactly, Dobbins has incredible mileage and has upside as a receiver as well. This was @Truth favorite running back in the class.

i mean maybe its my fault - but that's what the tape was telling me he was

And maybe he does turn out to be a star, but it's telling that all 32 teams passed on him at least once. Clearly, the league wasn't as high on him as the boards here.

I thought you were going to bed
 
The whining I'm seeing very much reminds me of the Noah Spence debacle...
Its exactly like Noah Spence lol. The draft is a crapshoot and people need to stop getting worked up about the team not picking the guy you wanted in the second and round. If its past pick 50 he most likely fell for a reason warranted or not.

yeah idk i just have this nagging feeling that the league was overthinking it like with DK Metcalf last year

To me, Metcalf is more the exception than the norm. Always a few guys that we think are stars that fall far and never materialize.

Hmmm...and what makes Ingram so good? And what made Mcgehee so good?

An RB isnt supposed to be your best athlete. Hes supposed to have good vision and keeps his legs moving. Dobbins does that.
