I thought when we drafted Breece and then supplemented that selection with Allen as a thunder piece, we’d be set for 5+ years at running back. I still like Allen as a backup but he runs awfully high and I don’t know that he’ll ever be a lead back. Breece will be gone at the end of the year by his own choice. Teams find serviceable running backs later in the draft all the time. The Commanders have a solid RB by committee going with a 6th and 7th round draft pick. Anyways starting a scouting thread for the position.
Demond Claiborne, RB, Wake Forest - dude is reallllly hard to tackle and he’s not exactly playing with a roster full of 5 stars. He also catches really well. Jonah Coleman, RB, Washington - kind of an obvious choice to be a bell cow but I wouldn’t be using a late first or second on a back. If he tumbles, he’s definitely worth the juice because he does everything well and is pretty dynamic. Kaden Feagin, RB, Illinois - not sure that he’ll come out because he’s only a junior but 6’3”, 250 and athletic as hell. Le’Veon Moss, RB, A&M - not a very refined back in terms of vision or in between the tackles running but he has the same athletic mold as Breece. Maybe he can be developed?
It makes me sick JV. I might be the lone Breece Hall guy left. I dont want a running back in the draft, I wanna use the guy(s) we have
