Rb who I want in draft : Knile Davis beast mode


Man this kid is so underrated...got hurt and missed time I remember but he was a beast vs the best sec team in A/m.Look at his highlights and you will want to draft him in the 3rd - 4th round.Could easily be next Mcfadden.

I thought he looked a little slow on tape but he ran a 4.37 at the combine.

We will be taking a rb with one of our 1st 3 picks. Maybe this is the guy.

He has immense talent and you should get him a lot lower than he would usually go without the injury...

I have him in just about every mock i have made since the end of the season, but i prefer Christine Michael. Knile Davis has a problem holding onto the football and it's probably due to his small hands.


Kid is Adrien Murrell.

I've seen Davis ranked somewhere between 15th-20th RB. I'd be tempted to scoop him up 6th or 7th round depending on how the RB draft was shaking out. I think he might well be a diamond in the rough.

I still want Stepfan Taylor in the 3rd or 4th round, depending, but this kid is well worth talking a flyer on.

Anytime you can overpay for a player who has a great combine matched up with an injuryprone, underperforming college career, coupled with a fumbling problem, you grab that player!

In the 6th Davis is a great pick. When he goes in the 3rd, hes a huge risk and bad value.

Kid is Adrien Murrell.
Perhaps he is fumble prone, but like the commentator in the highlight vid above said "he has decent hands" catching passes. A useful trait to go with his elusiveness and afterburners, in a WCO don't you think?

One RB I want in this draft is:

Quote:
Denard Robinson, WR (5-foot-10 3/8, 199 pounds) — Robinson was the only player from Michigan who participated at the NFL Scouting Combine. Robinson stood by his combine numbers (he did run an official time of 4.43 seconds in the 40-yard dash). At Michigan’s pro day, Robinson caught balls as a receiver, and did also worked out as a running back and return specialist. His best NFL position might be running back — even if he worked out at receiver at the combine and played quarterback while at Michigan — as he can really make things happen when the ball is in his hands.

Got excited by his combine and asked Tony Pauline whether he'd move up the boards. He said he got exactly what he expected out of him, excellent straight-line speed, bad football moves. Looked bad in drills.

If he's Adrien Murrell, we take him but he's not that good.

That's pretty much how he looked on this A&M game.

I've only seen that video of him. Wasn't all that impressive. The line didn't seem to be doing him any favors though. He did get stripped quite a bit.

He's got baby sized hands and teams figured out the way to exploit him is try to strip the ball and they did with great success.

there are goodbacks in the draft...i actually like the kid from north carolina....giovani bernard...this talk about no good backs in the draft is absurd. If they watch college ball, they will see that there are good backs to be had...after the 3rd round.
