Jahmyr Gibbs

RB

Alabama

Instinctive & runs with authority.

As Rez stated earlier, think Kamara but faster.

Yep, I won't rule out the Saints drafting another RB/powerback for 2023.

Regardless of the AK situation, it's time.

Keion White
DE

Ga Tech

6'5/285

Good hand placement, V8 motor with a power rush.

IDK how I'd feel about adding ANOTHER DE to the squad. Especially in the 1st round.

Davenport & now Payton Turner (former 1st) had kinda soured on me.

The expectation in rd1 is to become a quality starter (see Lattimore, Ramz/Olave) & not an average performer or a guy who stays under the medical tent or weekly injury report.

I'll be curious to see what Ireland/Allen and co-do with that Day 1 pick.

If they want a good one, they'll have to pull the trigger by round 3, probably.

I like this kid too ...

Israel Abanikanda
RB

PITT

One cut runner, not a lot of dancing. Has 2nd gear separation (track background) and... long speed. Good size @ 5'11/215.

1805 all-purpose yards and 21 TDs

His Pro day was impressive. Probably moves up to 2nd round.

Monster. Running back is deep.

Tank Bigsby
RB Auburn

Good control and acceleration in traffic. Runs good routes & has the ability to get through his holes. Physical runner.

Will need to improve with pass blocking at the next level but the potential is there.
