    2020 NFL DRAFT RUNNING BACKS

    I'm probably going to go back and re-watch some of these guys because I'm undecided with a few guys, but here is what I have at RB. I settled on Swift at #1 because of his third down abilities and Taylor's fumbling issues. I do like Taylor a lot.

    Code:
    1	1	D'Andre Swift, Georgia
2	1	Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin
3	2	J.K. Dobbins, Ohio State
4	2	Clyde Edwards-Helaire, LSU
5	2	Cam Akers, Florida State
6	3	Zack Moss, Utah
7	4	A.J. Dillon, Boston College
8	4-5	Darryton Evans, Applachian State
9	4-5	Antonio Gibson, Memphis
10	4-5	Joshua Kelley, UCLA
11	4-5	Eno Benjamin, Arizona State
12	4-5	Lamical Perine, Florida
13	5-6	Anthony McFarland, Maryland
14	5-6	Ke'Shawn Vaughn, Vanderbilt
15	5-6	Michael Warren, Cincinnati
16	6-7	James Robinson, Illinois State
17	6-7	LeVante Bellamy, Western Michigan
18	6-7	Rico Dowdle, South Carolina
19	7-FA	Patrick Taylor, Memphis
20	7-FA	DeeJay Dallas, Miami
21	7-FA	Javon Leake, Maryland

Other RBs that I watched, but deemed as UDFA:
Darius Anderson, Salvon Ahmed, J.J. Taylor, Benny LeMay

    The way I see it, there's Jonathan Taylor, and there's everybody else. I'd love to see the Packers grab Taylor, maybe even with a first round pick. I don't want us to take any of the others before maybe the 6th round.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

      With other pressing needs I like AJ Dillon who a bruiser they can probably get in mid-rounds.

      Jason Huntley to me is absolutely worth a 6th or 7th round pick. He could be another hidden gem like AJ was. You certainly can’t teach speed and acceleration and Huntley has a lot of that. He can catch balls, return kicks and runs hard for his frame. Very explosive player.

        I'd be happy if they wait until Day 3 and grabbed Darryton Evans. He could be the successor to Aaron Jones when Jones gets 8-10M/yr from some team like Miami or Houston next season. Ran a 4.41 and his play style fits outside zone better than AJ Dillon. I also love the idea of Edwards-Helaire's pass catching/route running in a MLF offense, but a R2 is pretty steep for a lower priority need compared to the big 4 of WR, OL, DL, LB.

        I also think they will try to get Ervin more opportunities (jet sweeps, screens, etc.), and I haven't given up on Dexter Williams -- although he has to show he can play this year or he's gone.

          I sort of like Joshua Kelly from UCLA

            Huntley seems like he might be a worthwhile late round pick. Dillon I really wouldn't want unless maybe they treated him as a fullback.

              Love Edwards-Hellaire from LSU. Not a big dude, but stocky, strong, and shifty. Catches a ton of balls as well. Wouldn't mind GB taking a stab in the 2nd or 3rd. Kid's a beast.

                Yeah, Dillon would be more of a luxury pick that I was hot on early. Not sure they will use a mid-round pick on him.

                  Not exactly a strong endorsement...

                    Finalized my RB board. I went back to Taylor at #1. I'm not passing on a Nick Chubb-like talent, fumbling problems be damned.

                    1	1	Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin
2	1	D'Andre Swift, Georgia
3	2	J.K. Dobbins, Ohio State
4	2	Clyde Edwards-Helaire, LSU
5	2	Cam Akers, Florida State
6	3	Zack Moss, Utah
7	4	A.J. Dillon, Boston College
8	4-5	Darryton Evans, Applachian State
9	4-5	Antonio Gibson, Memphis
10	4-5	Joshua Kelley, UCLA
11	4-5	Eno Benjamin, Arizona State
12	4-5	Lamical Perine, Florida
13	5-6	Anthony McFarland, Maryland
14	5-6	Ke'Shawn Vaughn, Vanderbilt

                      I hate to say it, but I could see Dobbins having the best career of the group.
