I don't remember anybody having any issues with the pick, but it's certainly possible.
I owned it.
But, you know I hate drafting RB’s early. So, R4 isn’t that big of a deal to me.
Just thought some better prospects were available at the time.
If Bucky works out, then all the better.
Ahh someone using context, good post.
This ^^ is the beauty of the Red Board.
If the roles were reversed the Irving side would be calling me a "White apologist" or something like "White fluffer" LMAO and would be DENYING meaningful context and posting things like "6.2 is greater than 2.1. . . . that is a FACT"
I'm simply highlighting that it's kinda foolish to make arguments like it. Saquan Barkley's YPC is his YPC. Baker Mayfield's YPA is his YPA. Chris Godwin's YPR is his YPR.

feel like round 4 is best bang for your buck and i like what i see from him so far. We havent had the best luck with RBs
2022 - RD3 - Rachaad White - ok pick; has been a good addition; would argue playing to his draft status; nothing too great but not bad; clearly not the answer.
2020 - RD 3 - Ke'Shawn Vaughn - brutal pick
2018 - RD 2 - Ronald Jones - ehh, medicore at best, his best season was the year he got benched for Fournette in the playoff run.
2017 - RD 5 - Jeremy McNichols - this dude somehow still in the league and has less than 100 carries in his career lol.
2014 - Rd 3 Charles Sims - ass
2012 - Rd 1 Doug Martin - much like Caddy, had a great rookie year, rest was either shit or injury prone sans a good 2015. At the end of the first round, did not play to his value; but was more to me a 3rd round/4th round value for how his career turned out
2005 - RD 1 Cadillac - brutal pick. Dudes best year was his rookie season when he had nearly 1200 yards (400 of which came in the first 3 games). Dude never sniffed 1,000 yards again and was injury plagued
given where NFL contracts have gone with RBs and just the overall use, no team should spend higher than a 3rd for an RB. As far as Bucky...i got a good feeling and the dude deserves more playing time. He's averaging 5.8 yards a carry versus White 2.8. Seems like a no brainer to at least try it.

agreed

Agreed on the ROI part in relation to the draft and current landscape of running backs in today’s league.
And, regarding Bucky, he has been getting more playing time. Would love to see Coen dial up some of the gimmicks for White that he’s solely giving to Bucky.
But, as I’ve said before, the interior line has to play better. Because without the trickery, neither have been super effective.
Last weekend was a welcoming site though.
Especially running out the clock on the last drive with an efficient rushing attack.
As Bucky loses us the game lol. Damn man
This exactly what happens when you play inexperienced young players. I mean White fumbled earlier too but i woulda rolled with white to kill clock and trusted him to hold the ball.As Bucky loses us the game lol. Damn man
I don’t understand why Tucker ain’t getting any snaps. It just doesn’t make any sense. He had a great preseason & a great kick return tonight.

He must be a liability in the passing game. That's the only thing I can figure, because he looks good toting the rock.
I am a fan of White but is it possible he slides down the chart? Hard to picture him consistently running with the approach we see so far from Irving and Tucker.
Not "sliding down the chart" and no dancing from White - something he improved upon last season unbeknownst to your dumbass.
You're 0/2 here, keeping your lifetime average at .000.
Check in after Week 1: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 2: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 3: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 4: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
Check in after Week 5: Rachaad White is the starting RB.
I thought you were going to say take away his long run. Gadget play
lol
that’s how averages work!
