Scot McCloughan shares his thoughts on the ’ draft class:
“He’s like a little bolt of lightning”
“He was a competitive, tough son of a gun. I liked him quite a bit.”
“He’s really good with his hips and feet.”

Since 2017, every time the have drafted a RB, that player's been outperformed by a RB acquired later in same draft

'17: Joe Williams/Matt Breida
'21: Trey Sermon/Elijah Mitchell
'22: Ty Davis-Price/Jordan Mason

You’ve been warned, Isaac Guerendo
