Patient runner with power.

I could see him as a possible every down back at the next level.

Reminds me a lot, A LOT, of our very own Deuce...

Big Guy, an absolute LOAD for DBs to tackle in open field, and a high-character/locker room asset team player...

Deuce ran a 4.4 at the combine and was like 230 lbs. Some mock drafts had Deuce as the #1 pick in the draft. We picked him with the 23rd pick with Ricky Williams on the team. I like Benny Snell, but he's not Deuce.

I would is we lose Ingram. I'm leaning toward Hochensten or Isabella if we stay at #62 If we trade up it will be for DT, TE (Fant) or QB. If we trade up we will trade our 1st next year for a mid 2nd and early 3rd this year then pick the best players available from those positions or package them all to move up to about #15 for one of the best players at those positions.

Cher, get ready for a lot of frustration this draft. With little assets Payton has left us - only one, "1" pick, 68th, in the first one hundred sixty-eight, 168, 1-6-8, we're not getting a sniff of Fant after his Combine display...

Payton continually fails to learn from his failed history of going All In on just a couple of players...

And you've got Belichick laying out the blue print for everyone else - at the end of the day, it's a numbers game and having numbers, building through the draft process...

I will either be totally frustrated or happy as hell because there is no in between with Payton.

And yet we were almost in the Super Bowl. After a grueling regular season schedule, a host of injuries to starting lineman. I get that SP swings and missed (who doesnt?) but his misses are closer to the foul pole than before.

DK Metcalf’s 3-cone and shuttle times were pretty bad though surprisingly (7.38 and 4.50 respectively.)
