2025 NFL Free Agency and Draft: RB

I view Henderson kind of that same way and why if the Vikings took him at #24, you'd get no complaints from me. You bring in someone that's an explosive playmaker and fits your offense perfectly, take him. 10 to 12 touches a game in rotation with Jones/Mason and also gives you vale as a kick returner under the new rules...sign me up

That was a different draft. Look, I love Henderson, but I think 10's a reach when you have 3 picks in the top 40. If I were them I'd package a couple of picks and move up for Jeanty. If I couldn't swing that, I'd trade back from 10 and take Henderson in the late teens. I have zero problem taking Henderson at 24.

Most likely. If it’s me I run with Swift and Roschon Johnson and bolster the LT slot or Edge spot. But, I think I love Roschon more than his own mom.

I think they're in a similar situation as the Vikings honestly. Mason is our Roschon and Jones is our Swift. RB is not an urgent need for either team, but I think both Ben Johnson and Kevin O'Connell would LOVE to add a premier back, because there isn't one on either team.

The worst thing Detroit could do is to continue splitting carries between Gibbs and Montgomery. Should be 70/30. Gibbs is electric.

I agree and this is a great example as to why most draft folks in the media are just a bunch of sheep without diving into things a little more.

Hall and Allen would be a fantastic RBBC duo. Fix the OL.
