RB in draft

Im holding off on scouting RBs til after we cut Dion.

I watched the RBs last year and fell in love with a few, and we stuck with Dion.

 

Regardless of whether or not we resign Henry, we still have to upgrade RB2. That's been a huge weakness for us. I would love to add a speed element to our offense and a change of pace from Henry's physical style of play. Beat them down with Henry, and them when they're tired, hit them with the speed.

I wouldn't want to spend a 1st rounder on a RB, but I believe Todd McShay had us taking D'Andre Swift from Georgia in his latest mock draft. Swift is a great player, would love to have him here, but by spending our 1st rounder on him.

 

That would give me flashbacks to 2008 when we added after already having a pretty good run game with Lendale and VY..

 

1st needs to be someone who can get to the QB if anyone is available when we pick. Main concern though is just don’t reach for a position just because it’s a need.

 

We should've went after Kenyon Drake.. His style would've fit nicely in Nashville.

 

1 st round pick has to be pass rusher OLB/DE either LSU Chaseson or Notre Dame Okwara maybe Alabama Lewis, 2nd round Travis Etiene Clemson RB wouldn't be bad pick or Benjamin Eno ASU in the 3d round.

 

What about 15-16M? 12M would be him giving us a discount.

 

Honestly, we should trade up for a pass rusher. That is clearly the major hole in the roster.

 

Two big gets:

1. Pass Rusher - improve nearly EVERYTHING on defense.

2. RB 2 - Henry needs assistance, he can't do it all by himself. We invest in the position, Henry and his backup. No need to run him into the ground.
