Chiefs, Round 4. Was a junior. I expected him to go a little earlier than he did because of his pure speed, but he isn’t built for a feature back role. Will have to be part of a committee approach … Continue reading →

Was a junior. Before the Combine incidents and the subsequent fallout, I had Muema as my top RB – going in Round 2. To me, he was the best back in the draft, but I was definitely in the minority … Continue reading →

Redskins, Round 6. Was a redshirt junior and former transfer from Oregon. Went much later than I expected, which was Round 3. Released by Washington, DC, team in August. May be the best of the smaller backs in this draft … Continue reading →

Buccaneers, Round 3. Transferred from Houston in 2013. I’m a fan of his – but more as a receiver than as a running back. He’s not built to be an every-down back in the NFL and his talents aren’t well-rounded … Continue reading →

UDFA. Was signed by the Titans as a UDFA but was released in August and put on their practice squad. I see him as having too many negative traits to stick in the NFL, anyway. All-Star Games: Senior Bowl. Positives: … Continue reading →

Patriots, Round 4. He goes to a Patriots team with maybe Vereen and Ridley ahead of him, but he has as much talent as either of them. With his receiving and pass-blocking skills, I especially like his chances of being … Continue reading →
