Jeremiyah Love?

[Mark22]

What’s your guys thoughts drafting who seems to be a playmaking stud RB. Especially in light of no worthy QB available at #3, nor a no brainer OT that early. Get your OT/G in round 2/3. We need play makers. When I watch Love, I see Bijan. Thoughts?

 

[Harry]

Great player, but bigger needs

 

[JohnnyCakes]

is he really that good or is he a product of the ND schedule

 

[Cardiac]

Maybe with a trade down but not in the top ten. We have much greater needs and quality RBs will be available in FA.

 

[Mark22]

If you watch his film, he’s that good!

 

[Mark22]

I definitely get that, however we don’t currently have any explosive play makers in the RB room. Btw, he’s excellent in the passing game as well. Just my opinion.

 

[Shane]

Just no

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Can he throw the ball? No? Then, no.

 

[Mark22]

Can he throw the ball? No? Then, no.

So do we draft a QB #3 even if Mendoza and Moore are gone just because?

 

[Mark22]

Just no

Because?

 

[Shane]

Because?

Way too high of a pick for a running back end of story. Even worse when you factor in the condition of our OL. Super productive, starting running back to be found later.

 

[Mark22]

Because? You don’t like him as a RB or because he’s a RB?

That’s fair

 

[Mark22]

That’s fair.

He's like that pretty Lambo you see at the dealership. You'd love it, but you have a family and need a minivan to lug them around in. I WISH we could snag him. Watching Bijan has made me long for a back like him.

 

[HairZach]

Because?

It feels bad spending a top 3 pick on a RB when there are OL/DL to take. Also Love isn't half the prospect Jeanty/Bijan were.

Sure the OTs arent blue chip prospects, but neither is Love.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

I liked him at 5, I don't like him at 3.

My preferences are, in order:

Trade two 1sts and two 2nds for Mendoza.
Trade down to 5-6 and grab Love.
Stand pat and draft Bane/Bailey.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

So do we draft a QB #3 even if Mendoza and Moore are gone just because?

No, but I might trade down if it gained us more picks. We are more than one stud player away from turning things around.

 

[Russ Smith]

He's really good my concern is like others way too high to take a RB. He reminds me of Etienne with the Jags, Kiper compares him to both Etienne and Reggie Bush. Great out of the backfield catching the ball, breakaway speed.

 

[Stout]

Great player, but bigger needs

My thoughts exactly. If we miss big on who we draft and he turns out great, then yeah, there will be remorse in hindsight (Levi Brown anyone?).

Can he pick up a blitz?

Can he catch?

 

[slanidrac16]

If we did everything in free agency possible, then yes. But we won’t do that so no.

 

[Mark22]

We’ll have to agree to disagree on whether Love is half the prospect Jeanty/Bijan were. Scouting services say different.

 

[Mark22]

Can he pick up a blitz?

Can he catch?

Pass pro? Don’t know. Catch? Absolutely!

 

[Cardsfanstl]

Love him but not worthy of the #3 pick. Think he will go in the middle of the 1st rd
