[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1027504, member: 10086"] What a coincidence. I spent a few hours last night going through potential RB’s in that top 125 area. While I’ve made it known Jonathon Brooks is my clear favorite, Braelon Allen really stuck out to me (also Bucky Irving is just fun to watch) Now admittedly my research was limited. I looked at 3 scouting reports for that top 6-7 and watched some highlight tape. Then I analyze their Stats using consideration for their Level of competition. It’s a novice interpretation most part using my gut and past RB I’ve watched coming into the Pros I believe Allen is a step up from Dillon from a Rushing standpoint (although I think Dillon is possibly a more complete RB in blocking/catching/run as a whole. Some of that will change with experience though. Allen is like Dillon with 4.4 speed instead of 4.5 speed. That’s a huge difference at the NFL level. Allen is also better at lateral mobility and not such a FB style RB like Dillon is (rumbling North/South) He’s actually an ideal replacement for AJ Dillon as our current RB2 IF Dillon chases $$ elsewhere. Imo, Braelon would do a better job as a “projected” future RB1 given time once Jones is gone. Like Dillon (2nd Round) Allen is probably a slight reach at #58 overall, but he’s 95% gone at #88 overall so I’m not sure how to handle that part. Considering it’s a thin RB class at the top? I’d actually feel ok anywhere starting #58 on back. That gives us 2 very capable RB’s and keeps the Fond Du Lac crowd happy. Braelon can Kick a Poo and Win a Bego. I’d love to see the look on his families face if he gets drafted by the Packers [/QUOTE]
