    I hope LaFleur incorporates some of screens that Lewis got with the Pats. It was an automatic first down every time he got those plays.

    How in the **** do they measure elusiveness if Derrick Henry is #5?

    It's a good RB class, but not for what we needed. Most of the backs this year are bigger guys that project more as 1st and 2nd down runners. We already have that guy in Henry.

    There's only a few guys that fit what we needed, and I could still see us taking a guy like Mark Walton in the mid to late rounds. He'd be a good 3rd back to have on the team and could be a sleeper.

    They use the Next Gen shoulder pad microchips. Whenever a defensive player gets within 1 yard of the RB, it measures what they call Yards After Closure. It could be a stiff arm, a broken tackle, or even a juke. If a defensive player gets that close and doesn't make a tackle, the RB gets "elusive" points. Kinda cool actually.
