Guice must have killed a guy or some shit. I’m fine with both picks. Need online help always, and Chubb runs hard and is a good kid.
He’s a patient runner too. I like him.

He’s not gonna break any long tds in the nfl but he’s always going to get you positive yardage. And he’ll bust one for 15-20 sometimes. Him and Hyde should help getting us 3rd and short where duke and Landry will shine.

Can't go wrong with upgrading the O-line and adding a weapon to the offense. I like it.

Too bad hue doesn't believe in running the ball
lol right. If done right Chubb and Duke could be a great change of pace attack from the backfield. I have 0 faith in Hue figuring that out, hopefully Haley does. I like Chubb in the 2nd though. I would take a RB in this loaded RB class over drafting barkley with a top 5 pick any day of the week.

Hue isn’t calling the plays this year. Dorsey runs this shit. Not sure why they didn’t fire Hue but he doesn’t have full reign anymore

I saw someone (sobleski?) mention they’re his two highest rated people left too. Apparently Guice was a total pos in meetings so I like the Chubb pick even more.

Yeah I mentioned earlier in this thread about Guice. He apparently rubbed a LOT of teams the wrong way.

I can’t believe Reid is still available. I think he’s better than the safety the Steelers drafted

The safety they drafted was way early supposedly.
New browns pick also a reach per the twitter posse. I have no idea about these guys so whatever.

Chad Thomas (their 3rd round pick) produces music for Rick Ross and had to convince teams that he was committed to football. Lol did we HAVE to draft him..?

It feels like the Steelers and ravens have had great drafts and we’ve reached on every pick.

Never understood why fans get upset about “reaching” in the draft. The guys you draft are either good or they’re not. If we reach on a player but he turns into a pro bowler is anyone going to remember that we reached on him? Lol

Well just because when you reach it means you could have gotten a better player. And better players usually mean better teams. And this team had so many holes that reaching is usually reserved for good teams who need to fill a certain hole. Not teams like us. We need better players all around. I am fine with who we got, don’t get me wrong. Just can’t help but wonder if we made some mistakes.

It's only reaching in your mind or mock drafters' minds. NFL GM's have thier own draft boards and you never know where some of these guys fall on there.
Like I said, when you look at the 2014 NFL Draft wiki page, you don't see a little asterick next to someone's name that says "Reach" you just see how many pro bowls they've been to or not.

So, nothing new. Although, I have to disagree. Not really a fan of the Ravens trading up for Lamar Jackson and I don't think Rudolph will be good at all.

I mainly agree with this, except for RBs. It's a reach to draft them high in the first round. I'd much rather get a pro bowler at a more valuable position and then pick a RB later, which is what I hope we did with this draft.
