There is everything wrong with it. It's why the only teams doing it are Gettleman's Giants; Jerry's Cowboys; Coughlin's Jags and Fisher's Rams. The Cowboys could of had Jalen Ramsey with that Zeke pick and drafted Derrick Henry in the 2d.
The Giants took Saquon with the second pick when they could of had Nick Chubb in the second round. Zeke and Saquon and Fournette were/are getting paid top of the draft money from day one at a non-premium position, a position you can get Pro Bowl production from anywhere at RB. Phillip Lindsay was an UDFA in 2018 and he posted a ypa nearly half yard better than Saquon.
Fournette and Mccaffrey were taken with top 7 picks. Their teams could of had Joe Mixon or Dalvin Cook in the 2d; Kamara or Kareem Hunt in the 3d; Tarik Cohen or Marlon Mack in the 4th. Chris Carson in the 7th. How good are the Panthers on account of CMC? Answer is he doesn't move the needle much at all. Fournette never possessed elite traits and he's not a good back. Just a straight line runner with bad vision, he's not physical at all, avoids contact, but for some reason people think he's a poor man's Derrick Henry or Nick Chubb, he's not. He just sucks.
I agree with this in terms of drafting rbs...but let’s not get it twisted had Todd gurley not ever hurt his knee at Georgia creating a what we now know is a degenerative condition he’d still be murdering this league.
