I just saw him listed as the #2 running back on NFL Network behind the guy from Penn State.

Because he won’t wake up early enough to be on Culotta and T-Bob’s show.
Remember, this show has enough power to give you your HC, so it’s powerful to influence the NFL as well. Don’t worry, DP will smooth things over with the mock drafters.

He had a pretty average season even if he was hurt? Probably question marks. He didn't anywhere close to as good as last season.

Mock drafts usually wind up being pretty epic fails. I wouldn't read much into it.

There have been 5 RB taken in the first round of the last 5 drafts combined. Not an easy task these days

Most on here have ZERO clue what this young man will do at the combine... He WILL turn plenty of heads.........

Barkley is a shoe-in for #1 RB taken and Guice has injury concerns.

He will do really well at the combine though and show his hands off in the drills. I could see him getting picked late by a good team that needs a pass-catching play maker out of the back field.

Mocks that are released after the end of the season to before the combine are worthless. Nothing has changed and the people that do the mocks switch things up to get more clicks and all that.

Because a lot of teams aren’t willing to use a 1st round pick on a RB when so many highly productive RBs have been getting drafted in the middle rounds of the draft recently

He was hobbled most of the year and not 100%.

It wouldn't concern me, but NFL GMs take that shite seriously, especially with a position that has such a short shelf life.

Again, I think the combine will ease those concerns and he'll climb back up draft boards. He's a freak in his own right.

He’s missed 1 game in a 3 year career at LSU. That’s not having an injury concern.

He was banged up this year, but still only missed 1game. If Guice has “injury concerns”, then pretty much every player in the draft does.

And he has more tread on the tires than Barkley, Chubb, etc. He had 471 carries at LSU, compared to 758 for Chubb and 671 for Barkley.
