Tell me who in the NFL this last year got more hate than Hardy?
Tom Brady?Roger Goodell?
Oh that was rhetorical,never mind.
Hey,but Ol' Greg would make a great looking avatar.

Being the comish comes with free nationwide hate. Just part of the job
And Brady got as much love as he did hate
This is why when I am constantly asked about Ezekiel Elliott and Myles Jack, I generally offer a less-than-excited response. It isn't that those aren't talented players. They are wonderful players that I think will be great talents between now and 2020. But, those two positions in particular have a mountain of evidence that indicates the life-span is short. They may be elite players for a bit, but unfortunately, for every RB that lasts two full contracts with his team (8-10 years) there are about 100 that don't. And for me, high-tackle inside linebackers are essentially the RB of the defense, in that they are generally involved in many high-speed collisions where they are taking the punishment directly. Again, some last. But, most get wore down as they head towards 30 years old. I just think at No. 4, you must consider the life-span of an asset. Is it reasonable to assume that a player at either of these positional spots in today's NFL can both play at an elite level and play with health and longevity like a quarterback, left tackle, pass rusher, or even a cornerback? Evidence tells us "no."
Booker turns 24 next month. I like him but it would have to be a Day 3 pick for me.
Yes, right now I'd pretty much guarantee they covet Henry in the second. I almost expect them to trade up to get him to make sure nobody takes him earlier than we expect like happened last year.
I think it's going to be more like Dixon as a reach in the second. Henry seems like a talent risk: might not have "it" like Trent Richatdson or like a Ron Dayne never did.

They never intended to draft a RB. They as much as said so, all offseason, then magic of magic? None were drafted.I think that was the mistake they made last year. They thought one would be there in each round however as their pick got there, they guy they thought would be available was gone. However in each round there was still a guy there but he wasn't projected until later so they didn't draft a RB because it would be considered a "reach".
Welcome to The U, DCFan. Invite all your friends!I would love to have Elliott if we can somehow trade down right before the Giants pick at 8, oh say 7 with SF?
