Official 2017 NFL draft thread

If we had Elliot, I doubt we'd be sitting at 4-5 right now. Also, don't think Prescott would be 7-1 without Elliot.

Having a home-run hitting rb opens up a lot of stuff for the passing game, as defenses have to honor the run first on early downs. Rodgers was able to complete slants at will earlier in his career b/c Ryan Grant, at least before the injury, was a threat to take it to the house every time he touched the ball. Sure, Pack had better WRs back then but lbs still had to account for Grant, opening up the middle of the field. And when defenses played 8-men box, Rodgers dropped bombs on 'em with ease.

Lacy is a pain to tackle but he ain't a home-run hitter.

If the next Switch Hitter's there, gotta take him - unless, maybe, there's a Randy Moss, a Megatron, a Julio Jones or a AJ Green sitting around.

We are giving up 40 points a game. Elliot would be nice but not the difference.

Do not draft Fournette, better RBs out there to take in 2 and 3 rounds.

Elliot has made the Cowboys stinking D a whole lot better by milking the clock offensively while keeping the D off the field. Fournette, the next Switch Hitter, aka, #AllDay28, could do the same thing with the Packers' pussycat D.
