What are your thoughts on getting Robinson at 29. He can relieve some pressure so we can keep Kamara and use him better than an every down back. Some mocks have him going at the end. I feel like he is one of the best RB prospects to come out in a while. Could be really good. Better than some MAC DE.

RB is way down the list of team needs.

Give me Tyjae Spears later.

If we had a RB last year worth his salt besides a banged up Kamara, we win the division. So perhaps it’s a big need.

I think we have gigantic holes at:

QB
FS
SS
DE
DT
TE
WR

and you could argue that we need another IOL before a RB.

If Robinson or Gibbs is there at 29 you take him, we pick again 11 picks later

He’s likely going to go top 10.

I'd never use a 1st rounder on a RB.

Even if you have a solid team and a need for one, I'd rather go O-line/D-line depth than on a player that will maybe get 15 touches a game and who'll be burned out by 27/28.

The rb era is just done.

So every fricking position?



You guys come out of the woodwork. I’d say the only gigantic holes we have are at QB, DT and WR

Strip this team of any player that has value and acquire every draft pick possible. Draft positions of need not named quarterback. 2023 will suck, but the crop of quarterbacks is better in 2024 and we’ll be in better position to find our QB1 and a new offensive head coach.

Decent chance one of them will still be there for the 2nd pick

Its way up the list of needs. Huge need actually.

Its just a position that you don't need to spend high draft picks on usually

This team (Assuming it has Kamara for most of the 2023/24 season) needs a bruising locomotive type back that can soften up the defense and grind out short yardage plays.

If he's that type of back then I'm good with it provided no surprises are DL or S fall to 29.

If Kamara is suspended, we don't have a starter at RB at all.

On top of that Kamara just isn't that effective unless he has a complimentary back with him that can hit between the tackles.

RB is a massive need.

I’d take him at 29 if he’s there. Think he goes early to mid 20’s though.

This would be a great draft to take two mid round picks at rb. Like Achane and Bigsby or Sharpe. Figure one of the two will hit. Probably get them in the 3rd and 4th.

Robinsons great but we need a lot more pressing items I feel like. Later in the draft I'd be interested in the Vaughn kid from Kansas St
