[QUOTE="easyk83, post: 875443, member: 8895"] To me this pick was about making the passing game that we more effective in addition to boosting our rushing threat. Dillon more than either Jones or Williams fits and compliments Aaron Rodgers who frankly would line up every snap in a spread offense if given the opportunity. From watching Dillon what becomes apparent it that he has great acceleration for any back, that 132 inch broad jump shows up in games. He is huge strong and he runs with authority and he really does this out of single back spread sets. Defense in the NFL is about conceding what you can live with conceding. Though Aaron Jones is a good back with him on the field in a single back offense a DC can opt to spread his line out drop his safeties back and keep his LBs back in coverage too. It's well known that Rodgers gets impatient with the run game and tends to start checking to passes even when it doesnt make sense. So you can dare the Packers to run and yes Jones will get his yards but odds are the gains will be what you can live with and worth the trade off in order to limit Rodgers pressure him and cover up his preferred routes. With Dillon you flat out cannot do this. You simply have to keep your DL in tight and bunched because you cannot allow a 250 pound stallion to gallop into your secondary at will. Dillon could be a guy who slows down the rush and creates space in the passing game just by being out there on the field. Which should in turn help receivers get open faster and or allow longer routes like double moves to develop. [/QUOTE]
