Skattebo is absolutely gonna be the Giants starting RB.

He'll average less than 4 yards a carry in the NFL.

Skattebo is absolutely gonna be the Giants starting RB.

Dang that’s a brutal spot for Tracy. Skat back is a baller.

 

[IHEARTFF]

All RB round 4 please

 

[barackdhouse]

Which RB has the best chance of "surviving" the weekend?

J Ford
C Brown*
T Bigsby/ETN
J Jacobs*
D Swift
A Jones
A Kamara
T Tracy*
J Warren
Brian Robinson
R Stevenson
K Williams*
N Harris
I Pacheco
J Mixon
C Hubbard*
J Conner

DEN, DAL, and TEN look like wide open starter spots to me.

*are going as ~premium picks right now

Yes this RB class is super deep but do we really think all these names are going to be drafted over? There's no way. Many of them are going to be more or less replaced, even if it takes a year, and some will be replaced almost immediately. But... there are some criminally undervalued names up there right now if they don't get drafted over.

The churning will be epic though. Pretty wild FF landscape this year - WR isn't any prettier than RB. QB and TE have steep cliffs. This weekend is supposed to bring clarity ha.

I'd expect Bigsby and Swift and Robinson to get bumps moving forward. The crossed out names might becomes affordable and the rest will probably remain steady. Lots of names still susceptible to losing out.

J Ford
C Brown*
T Bigsby/ETN
J Jacobs*
D Swift
A Jones
A Kamara
T Tracy*
J Warren
Brian Robinson
R Stevenson
K Williams*
N Harris
I Pacheco
J Mixon
C Hubbard*
J Conner

Tracy always felt like a sell this spring.

Not so fast.

 

[barackdhouse]

Swift gets crossed off next. Tahj Brooks....? Sampson?

I agree. I recall a discussion about his trade value in terms of which pick and I was a seller.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

 

[-OZ-]

So that’s another titans jersey that will go big.

Maybe NWI’s replacement

 

[travdogg]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

I'd have Giddens ahead of those last 2.

 

[travdogg]

Swift gets crossed off next. Tahj Brooks....? Sampson?

Sampson would be ideal. Brooks would make me a Swift buyer.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

Yes I knew I was forgetting someone. Love Giddens.

 

[crushedspirit]

Sanders watch?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

At this point, I think Sanders is a great pick for ANY team

Sure, it’s a 2-fer. You get Prime in the package to bend the coach’s ear any time Prime Jr isn’t getting enough reps.

 

[crushedspirit]

Project WR with straight line speed

 

[crushedspirit]

Bills traded up

 

[travdogg]

Having watched a lot of the Vols last year, Thornton going ahead of Sampson is wild.

At this point, I think Sanders is a great pick for ANY team

Sure, it’s a 2-fer. You get Prime in the package to bend the coach’s ear any time Prime Jr isn’t getting enough reps.

I think at this point its VERY easy to ignore Deion. Shedeur ain't going anywhere he'd start as a rookie except maybe Pittsburgh.

 

[barackdhouse]

Ha, Bears traded out of it (again). Buffalo OTC from Chicago thru Buffalo and Chicago. True story.

 

[barackdhouse]

Swift gets crossed off next. Tahj Brooks....? Sampson?

Sampson would be ideal. Brooks would make me a Swift buyer.

yea I like Brooks but he can take over a backfield later as a sleeper. I actually like Swift but they def need depth now.

 

[crushedspirit]

Bills loading up on D

 

[barackdhouse]

Sanders watch?

how bout we don't and then if he actually gets drafted we talk about it. also I am just kidding I care not

 

[barackdhouse]

yeah Swift looks pretty safe, they don't pick again until #30 this round. early 4th is as far as I'm willing to go to be excited about RBs.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Bills loading up on D

3 strong DL prospects in this draft
Landon Jackson is going to be a nightmare for the AFC East

 

[crushedspirit]

Jets should go WR

 

[JohnnyU]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

I don’t think Gordon matters much

 

[travdogg]

I kinda care more about the player than the draft capital. I'd still be worried about Swift if its Sampson, and maybe a little nervous if it was Martinez or Giddens.

I do wonder if Skattebo was gonna be their guy, and that led to the trade down.

 

[travdogg]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

I don’t think Gordon matters much

I think he's 50-50 to be drafted at all. Not sure he has the tools to get away with being a knucklehead.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

I don’t think Gordon matters much

I’m a believer. Dude was ridiculously good in 23. The talent is there.

 

[crushedspirit]

Seriously, they take a small fast guy who can't catch

Take Ayomanor

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I think at this point its VERY easy to ignore Deion. Shedeur ain't going anywhere he'd start as a rookie except maybe Pittsburgh.

Right, but if it’s about competing as for a backup spot, what team wants to deal with the attitude + Prime in the coach’s ear or on ESPN yapping about it?

 

[JohnnyU]

Sampson
Martinez
Neal
Ollie G

I don’t think Gordon matters much

I’m a believer. Dude was ridiculously good in 23. The talent is there.

Then in 2024 he went blind and required a service dog to find a hole. He gives me Isaiah Spiller vibes.

Yeah not sure what happened. I was a spiller guy too so I might be the blind one.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Niner finally gonna get Purdy some help on OL?

 

[JohnnyU]

Right, but if it’s about competing as for a backup spot, what team wants to deal with the attitude + Prime in the coach’s ear or on ESPN yapping about it?

I think too much is being made of that.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I thought NOS might have taken Sanders there. That might have been his last shot but PIT still a dark horse at 21.

I freely admit to my contributions to the hyperbole.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Stutsman is a solid LB to grab in the 4th for the Saints, will help a lot with run support
Situational type but you can't expect for much more at this point

Best pick of the 4th thus far?

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Niners take CJ West, DT


-Would have looked so good in a Miami uniform on that DLine

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Man, the Niners *really* got tired of being run on.

 

[Snotbubbles]

I thought NOS might have taken Sanders there. That might have been his last shot but PIT still a dark horse at 21.

The Saints drafted Tyler Shough in the 2nd.

I think he's fair game for any team at this point. I hope the Eagles take him at 130 if he's there.

Yeah but with Carr being “injured” and Rattler being well, rattler, they could use the depth.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Best of luck to KWIII, Conner, & Williams 2x ea.

 

[crushedspirit]

Panthers added a 3rd down back

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Panthers added a 3rd down back

Figured they would. Chuba needs a breather from time to time. And with Brooks on the way in 2026 (late 2025?) I didn’t think they’d invest too much.

I’m on watch for Cinci taking a thumper.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Miami trades back, nobody they like right now

 

[sushinsky4tsar]

Teams where a RB in this round 4/5 range would be interesting for either 2025 depth / competition or potential to ascend in 2026?

Quick list in no particular order:

DAL - Javonte-Sanders-Vaughn
BUF - James Cook situation
CHI - Swift-Roschon-Homer
CIN - Chase-Moss-Perine
KC - Pacheco-Hunt-Mitchell
NO - Kamara-Miller
SF - CMC-Guerendo
WAS - BRob-Ekeler
HOU JUST TOOK MARKS RND 4 -- nevermind
MIN - Jones-Mason-Chandler
MIA - Achane-Wright-Mattison

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

DAL probably should have drafted a RB by now - starting to look like a run.

 

[Man In The Box]

Miami gets 3 next year. Probably a smart move. They need secondary help and there’s not much to be had at this point. Start ALL your fantasy pass catchers against Miami next year.

 

[Dez]

Jacksonville should have drafted ETN and paired them together
