Bill Polian: 'Take Todd Gurley and don't look back'

Gurley!!!! Bring him on!!!!
 
Its risk reward. DGB is too much risk for the 1st. 2nd is ideal
 
Can't deny the kid is a top 10 talent. Hard to argue if he was the pick at 14. Clearly would be BPA. Regardless I don't think he falls out of the top 10 so it's a moot point to me.
 
I agree with the poster that suggested Gurley may be hurt again. I'm a little concerned about the injury history but this is the guy I want if he checks out with our staff. I'm always skeptical about high picks at RB. The last time I wanted us to take a RB high was Ronnie Brown and that didn't turn out as expected.

Ronnie Brown was not a true feature back. He was a part timer with Cadillac Williams. Also, the Dolphins at that time were desperate to fill the spot left by Ricky Williams. Gurley on the other hand is a feature back. He was the Georgia offense for the most part. Dolphins need a running back that will scare other defenses and keep them off balance. I like Lamar Miller, but I don't think other teams fear him as much.
 
I have much respect for Pollian but, still prefer their mock with Parker. IF not for the injury, I might be thinking differently.

Never understood the fascination with taking Brown that high. Let me see you are the second best back on your college team and we use the second pick in draft on you.

Didn't that happen on Arkansas too? Where 2 backs who split time both went very high. I will look up the names i forget
