KJ is still as young as Grant, Turner, Jacobs, and only one year older than D. Williams. Talent wise he will beat out anyone the Lions bring in, with Martz gone the Lions will go more to a running game, and it was working last year when they gave it a chance. If fragile Fred can overcome early career injuries, why not KJ, with modern medicine players can overcome injuries with much better odds than years ago.

 
I might remove Graham unless someone can justify him staying on here. He's the oldest of the crew and among the least experienced. He did well last year, but will anyone be voting for him before RB20?

I wouldn't put him before 20. I think you have to have Grant and Maroney ahead of him, and at least D-Mac, Stewart, and Mendenhall have to be considered as well depending on where they get drafted.

:censored: he has a vote now, so he stays.
 
Still surprised that the 1.01 rookie pick wouldn't be worth Grant or Maroney. Once the draft is completed I bet the guy who ends up in the best situation from the big-3 would end up getting slotted in the group of 12.

 
THis just shows that the RB talent is deep this off-season. you really can't go Wrong with Maroney / DMac / Grant / even Turner depending on where he goes.

I would trade the 1.1 for any of the guys straight up 1 throught 7. But that's it. I would not trade the 1.1 for any of the guys 8 and down.

:popcorn: :goodposting: I agree, but I'd put him behind Barber instead of Lynch.

Rudi has a long history of being hated on these boards..............and that's when he was finishing 6th, 7th, and 7th in rushing three years in a row. Now that he had a hamstring problem, he won't make some of these guys top 30 list....................LOL!

yeah, I was just throwing his name out there, I wouldn't take him yet as I think he is nearing the end of his run.

especially since he was 46th in the NFL in rushing last season.

chase stuart's write up concerning DMC's body mass
Great Read... however; no mention of All Days BMIAdrian Peterson 1341 73 217 28.6

Reggie Bush 1146 72 200 27.1

Now correct me if I'm wrong... but isn't Peterson more than one inch taller than Reggie Bush?????

When I see McFadden.. I see a younger / leaner / not has injuried AD

Guys.. the kid is going to put on weight. It sounds like hes packed on 10 pds... I bet he'll be around 220 when he steps on the Pro Field.

actually... Chase did mention the AD and DMac comparision...

"McFadden’s a good prospect, no doubt, but he played his senior year at about 13 pounds lighter (and the same height or taller) than Adrian Peterson did last year, and I think that’s a significant enough difference to question if he’s really the same level of prospect."

you need to remember that AD is 22; DMac is only 20. When Ad was 20.. didn't he only weigh 207?

So the fact that he's a smaller back then jerious norwood, that doesn't concern u at all? Could he put on the weight? Probably, but who's to say he can put on twenty pounds while not losing any speed in the process? Maybe that's why he won't be running the 40 in IndyAD is a much more solid and powerful back than DMC and he has power in his legs, which is pretty important for the runningback position...

These are pretty flawed polls.

Why not just wait until teams are decided for Turner and the rookies?

And the margin is so small -- there needs to be runoffs. This could be easily swung by the DMac voters choosing one of Grant/Maroney.

I completely agree. The first time it went wrong was with the three way tie for 12th. There were around 100 people that did not vote for any of the three, yet we are expected to assume a run-off would not have provided more definitive rankings. I believe this is silly. It has been stated by the OP that he will not do run-offs though, so there is no point arguing with that type of stubbornness.

True. It's funny though. There were polls done a few months ago. Why are we having another before the draft? Seems pretty useless.
