Center is gettting real thin. Not many RBs taken.

FB

Anti-premium position. But very likely the top-rated FB in the draft. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

OKay. I don't know anything other than where they sit on the consensus draft board.

I don't know... not very exciting pick but if he plays FB probably has more impact this year than most of the guys I see left on the board.

I was hoping RB... but Vikes must really not like anybody.

Not super excited about trotting out Jones/Mason again.

How is this guy, who played 12 snaps in 5 years, worth a draft pick?

He has minimum udfa invite written all over him…

Look at his stat page and explain how a guy like him is a fullback replacement for Ham?

6-2.. 222 lbs..

NO CARRIES IN FIVE YEARS..

12 plays in 5 years!


Omfg….

How does that career, in college even keep a scholarship

Oh wait.. he was a walk on..

Now he get to roll up to Eden prairie in his spanking new Kia..

Those were receptions, and I assume he had 0 carries?

Ham had 17 carries the past 5 years. 6 carries the last 3 years.

I didn't initially realize he was a FB.

This is why the chiefs are in a different category of management and coach..


Emmett Johnson

so we replaced his loss, with a guy with ZEROS?

I can’t even begin to express how stupid that pick seems..

Completely dysfunctional organization. Hopefully one day it will change but that time isn't now unfortunately.
