You've gone RB crazy. Gurley is coming off a very serious knee injury. Even if his knee checks out its going to be slow moving process. I wouldn't touch him until the second round. Hell I wouldn't touch a RB until the second round anyway. The days of the franchise back are gone and the difference between a first round RB and a third round RB are almost imperceptible.
Our offense should be totally built around the run game and I'm just saying if RB is the BPA at 27 then go for it. I realize that it's a long shot that Gurley will check out medically in order for him to be a consideration there, but if he does, then I'd be fine with it.
Believe me, I know how it's easy to find RB's in the 2nd or 3rd, I've been looking at guys like Coleman, Abdullah, Johnson and Yeldon all year. My point is that our 1st rounder is basically a 2nd rounder with how low it is and if RB is the BPA, I'm fine with it.
If we were picking at 15 (47ish in the 2nd) and traded up 10 or so spots in the 2nd to around the mid-30's for a guy like Gordon would anybody have an issue with it?
Well what's the difference between 27 and 35 if RB is the BPA?
Nothing really, people are just caught up in the idea of no "RB's in the 1st".
