    Looks like I have a converter. I've been hyping Yeldon all off-season.

    Out of the guys J Falk listed I'd say they'd rank as Allen, Williams, Johnson and Jones.

    I think Matt Jones is a poor man's Marion Barber. No speed. No burst. Just limited athletically all around. I liked Barber coming out, but I'm not too high on Jones at all.

    Admittedly, the UF offense was in utter disarray his entire tenure, but he just doesn't look like an NFL athlete to me.

    Anybody have anything on Josh Robinson and Malcolm Brown? I saw two of them mentioned and they seem like they have that meatball frame going on at 5'8-5'10 217-225.

    I like josh Robinson. Wouldn't be mad with him in the 6th if the other guys are gone.

    Malcolm brown is garbage though

    Yeah I am more familiar with Robinson, but haven't seen much. Seems like he could fit the position.

    I like Buck Allen. He has some flaws, but I think he can be really good.

    yeah i mean his nickname is the human bowling ball, but I worry that he won't be able to bully people the same way in the pros.

    I think there's a very high chance we go RB in either the 3rd or 4th round. Mariota or Leonard in the 1st, WR in the 2nd, RT/RB in the 3rd or 4th.

    Plenty of backs I love in the mid-rounds... Yeldon, Cobb, Buck Allen, and Mike Davis. We need somebody to split carries with Sankey, hopefully Greene isn't on this team next year.

    If we don't sign barksdale, I think the FO goes RT in round 2. Too risky to wait til round 3 because all the ones with starting potential could very easily be gone. That's why I want barksdale because if gordon, gurley, green beckam, or perriman are there at our 2nd pick and we pass on them for a RT I will fu## some sh## up.

    In round 3 I see us addressing wr over rb (if we went RT in the 2nd). I could easily see a player like Sammie Coates falling to the 3rd for us. The talent discrepancy from that 2nd tier wr group to the 3rd tier wr group is far greater than that of the rbs.

    For example, we can probably get Coates in the 3rd and then buck in the 4th.

    now say we get yeldon in the 3rd...there isn't a wr even close to Coates that will fall to the 4th. juSt gotta use our picks wisely.
