    Also, if anyone thinks a guy like James from Oregon makes a backfield more dynamic dont be afraid to throw him and his future team in here. Good luck figuring that out tho

    Maybe by fans and/or the media, but they aren't the ones that are gameplanning and trying to stop him.

    As good as Gore is, Jacobs is IMO the reason the Giants run game did nada

    can we talk about this after we see who goes where in the draft?

    but i voted for spiller and jackson because jackson was a stud last year until his injury and spiller showed flashes of being able to carry the load but thats only because their wasnt an option for my choice of

    jahvid best and mikel leshoure as of now...everyone will be fearing their passing attack and best is solid when he can stay healthy and i believe leshoure is going to be able to be the everydown back one day in this league

    I thought of that, and decided it wont matter. There's only one first round RB, and all the rest won't beat out any of the combos i came up with.

    LaMichael James is a C.J. Spiller type, and it took Spiller some time before he was worthy of being listed here. I can't see LaMichael James or anyone really coming in and setting the league on fire. There's no Adrian Peterson out there.

    But feel free to post after the draft if you think theres something worth adding.

    If the Rams take Richardson i might vote for them but the Texans have the best 2 backs on one team.

    I think the change of pace concept is overrated but there is always this idea that the smaller backs need a big back to compliment them but big backs are no more durable.

    Gore-Jacobs a tandem with a lot of miles on them.
