Is it Down to these Five?

Its going to interesting to see how far they trade back to get the players they really like and want. Najee Harris is one of their favorites for sure and he might not be there at pick #18. Fans dont like RBs in the 1st round but Harris is more of a sure thing than Devonta Smith or Waddle or Chase.
He is a better receiver and blocker than Derrick Henry and is close to being the beast runner Henry is when you need 2 yards. Its was awful watching Fins RBs unable to get 1st downs on short yardage.
Was Leonard fournette seen as a sure thIng to most people when taken 4th overall!?

I think he's pretty much exactly what Flores is looking for. Williams as well.
 
Fournette was a looney tune. He had poor hands and was lazy as a blocker. Harris is a great kid that those around Flores at the Senior Bowl knows that he is really impressed with him.
I’ve seen it too many times with rb’s. I want Williams and that’s it.
 
Chad was done at 32.

And never was a great player. Good... very good even... but not fear inducing...

Why? His size didn't help.
Chad Johnson was fear-inducing. You are making the mistake of projecting your biases on a career that is borderline HOF....wrong side of the border, but that would land him in the area of great.

Over 11K total yards...2 first team All Pro nods, and this is with Peter Warrick and Housyamomma on the other side of him. Everybody and their momma knew who Carson Palmer was going to, and they didn't/couldn't stop it.

He wasn't bad.

He certainly wasn't one of the best... barely so for the era...

A five year period where he was pretty good. 2003-2007. On double digit TD season. ONE. Before that, and after that the figures are below average.

He wasn't bad.
Mostly, he was 100% hype and look at meeeeee... some people bought into that. Sadly.

Most WR’s were pretty “look at me”..including Owens and Moss and many other WR’s.
 
Jerry Rice wasn’t exactly immune to being a me first guy, either. And Chad Johnson didn’t exactly play with two Hof qb’s. Like Jerry.
