If the Titans draft a rb who do you want?

No poll since this is open to all rounds so any back is there. 

 

Basicly 2 questions.

 

Which round and which back do want in that round while being realistic.

 

I know most people want a scat back to spell Henry but I kinda like aj Dillon in the 2nd or 3rd. Give me another big bruising back and let teams pay over and over again. I like zack moss as well he likes to stick defenders but he isn't near the bowling ball dillon is.

Dillon can be had much later than the third.

 

I highly doubt a RB gets drafted before round 3, maybe even the 5th. 

Seriously? Not saying you are wrong but dillon is top 5 to me. I wouldn't be suprised if no back goes in the first but I can't see him getting past us in the 3rd if we wanted him.

No way is Dillon top 5. Most draft analysts don't even have him top 10. He's like a 5th rounder - but I like him too.

First or only if he falls to us in the 2nd?

Man. If Swift was at our pick... it would be very hard to pass on him. 
 

I was watching his film last night, and I honestly forgot how fucking dynamic he is. 
 

I was watching film on the top RB’s in this draft and I came away extremely and I mean extremely impressed with several guys. I counted 4 players that are perfect fits in our scheme. I’ll list my top 5 RB’s that fit this scheme and in the order of who I think is the best of the 5 and so on. 
 

1) D’Andre Swift - Georgia

2) J.K. Dobbins - Ohio State

3) Jonathon Taylor - Wisconsin

4) Zack Moss - Utah

5) Antonio Gibson - Memphis

 

All of them have the size, speed, agility, vision, pass protection and are also all threats in the passing game. Gibson would moreso take the Dion Lewis role and if/when Henry departs in FA next year I don’t see him being an every down back. I see him more in a committee and thriving based off his home run ability, and his ability to make big plays in space such as on screens, or mining out wide, or running routes from the RB spot in the shotgun. 
 

Just go back and watch Dobbins. This dude is a beast. He runs with violence and is not afraid to lower his shoulder pads, and make contact. He also has a mean stiff arm and runs over people. 
 

Jonathon Taylor is just as physical if not more, and has a little more wiggle and speed than Dobbins and just like Swift and Dobbins he is a good pass blocker and a threat in the passing game. 
 

Zack Moss is of shorter stature and he also runs with some power behind him, and my god can that man juke a fool out of his cleats. Watching him run reminds me a lot of Jamaal Charles and Chris Johnson

I like moss and dobbins as well. I just like the idea of another 240 pounder with 4.5 speed to replace henry. Defenses would be shot by the 2nd half. That is why I like dillon.

For me it’s LSU’s Clyde Edwards-Helaire or Memphis Antonio Gibson. 
 

Specifically, I have watched a ton more tape on Edwards-Helaire this week and he would be the perfect complement to Henry. Dynamic runner, good pass catcher, and experienced in the pass protection game. I would be all for us taking him at 61 if he is still on the board.

Jonathan Taylor would be ideal-Esp if ur only getting Henry for the next 2-3 years.Kids gonna be good,U got ur backup rb and eventual successor to Henry.Its a win win really but that’s more thinking towards the future,and a lot depends on Henry.Akers is another kid I would look at.

I think this one depends on the front office situation. How close are they to getting a deal with Henry or how far apart are they. Would JRob be willing to franchise another year if needed? If they're far apart why not go early if the guy you like is there... otherwise I like the kid from Memphis and think he could be a weapon from several different  spots on the field - nice speed and explosive playmaking ability.
