Not sure if this is common or not, but I don't recall hearing about NFL assistants or coaches running position drills on Pro Days before. I know coaches will get in there and mix it up at times or get really close to the action (look at Urban Meyer with Lawrence on his Pro Day), but to actually be running the drills is a new one for me.

Could this be Miami tipping their hand with Etienne? Could be a smoke screen. Could be nothing. It is interesting though.

Difficult to read anything either way into the attendance at these pro days tbh. Some teams put out smoke screens, others do due diligence and others actually do ant to see these guys in the flesh.
 
I am sorry but that seems significant to me. We have positioned ourselves all over this draft and I don't know how they couldn't have a good idea of who deserves to be picked where. They have seen Najee Harris and Travis Etienne both first hand. I think either of them will be one of our picks.

We really can use a top RB for a change. I like Harris, Williams and Etienne and would be happy with any of the 3

Same those are my top 3

I think Etn probably offers the most in the passing game and more of a home run threat but the other two are more powerful runners but still viable receivers / pass blockers

Etienne is more of a HR type but as far as the passing game harris is as good as they come plus he'd at last get us the first down and 3rd and short. Something we've lacked for years

I think their both good but Etn might be better as receiver imo

have you seen the draft forum thread on him being tougher than expected or something along those lines? Has a bit more power than I thought

Yup and Fins didnt have to use a high pick or give out a huge contract for his services... Short down and distance specialists really dont require a whole of assets and that trait alone shouldnt be a factor for drafting RB high or paying good money for...
