[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 901070, member: 6578"] Profile for: [B]Kenneth Gainwell - Memphis[/B] As some remember the closer the draft got there were a few guys I loved last year - Antonio Gibson being one. Well enter Kenneth Gainwell for the 2021 draft as a Day 2 name everyone needs to know about and just know to smile should Green Bay call his name. This cat is special. He is a little light for a running back, but let's discuss his route to now first. He was a QB in high school and chose Memphis - played a couple times his redshirt year without losing it, and then 2019 this cat EXPLODED. Here's what some of us were saying last year that loved Antonio Gibson - that 2019 season here were their two statlines: Antonio Gibson 33 Rushes for 369 yards and 4 TDs 38 Receptions for 735 yards and 8 TDs Kenneth Gainwell 231 Rushes for 1,459 yards and 13 TDs 51 Receptions for 610 yards and 3 TDs So while Kenneth I think needs to get closer to that 200lb mark, his running style and change of pace pairing with Dillon and maybe Wiliams would be insane....throw in his ability to be comfortable and with crisp route running out of the slot makes him an insanely versatile piece I'd argue is better than Gibson - who had a heck of a rookie campaign on a bad-ish team. Opting out of 2020 makes his stuff not as fresh, and honestly I think had he played in 2020, there is a good chance we are talking about potentially being the 3rd RB off the board behind Harris and Etienne. A Gainwell type pick on Day 2 would arguably do and provide Rodgers with a better weapon to attack defenses with than any Day 2 WR that might be available - especially for this system and the fact such a style at slot is one we simply do not have to offer on the team presently.
