2025 NFL Free Agency and Draft: RB
If we want Hampton we’re going to have to get in front of Pittsburgh. Unless the Steelers like Warren enough to make him the lead dog. I don’t hate the idea of moving up for Jeanty if he gets past Vegas. You probably have to get to the 9 slot. 

Never thought we’d be two days out of FA and the only glaring need is a field tilting RB. We’re setting up for a return to the 70s without the disco ball.

Love to find a way to draft Jeanty. Not ready to buy Hampton as RB1b though. I think Jeanty is generational and on a separate level from everyone else. I'd consider giving up our '26 1st to get him. 

I think there's a 2a and 2b though, and that's Henderson and Hampton, and they change order for me just about once a week.

I think we go Judkins at this point and call it a day. Just trade back a few spots and get a pick. We just need to find a partner. I like Judkins a ton.

I think the gap between the two is closer in my eyes only. I’m not seeing anyone else with the same opinion. 

I prefer Hampton due to the triangle numbers, level of competition, and wear and tear. But, if Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith had a baby, you’d have Jeanty.



A little LeVeon Bell here.

Hampton would be great. Give me him or one of the Ohio State backs on draft day and I'm a happy camper..

Something to also keep in mind if we are looking at running backs is both Denver (20) and Pittsburgh (21) both have big needs at running back now. We could see a run (no pun intended) on running backs

I'll say this about Judkins, among the bigger backs like Hampton and Johnson, he has better lateral quickness and agility. I think he might have the highest floor too. I like Henderson more than him only because he's a little faster, a little bit better receiver and he's probably the best pass protector among the top 4 backs. That's a big deal for our offense.

I dont think Henderson will be there at 24 if I was a betting man...He'll be the 2nd or 3rd back taken. 

I hAve a feeling Jeanty wont get past Chicago.

Well the problem is we now have two RB needy teams picking directly ahead of us, so you might be right.

Pass protections is a big plus for Henderson. I just like Judkins. He has that attitude about him. Confident, work ethic, smarts, and just a well rounded back. 

Don't get me wrong, I like them both, but for some reason I trust Judkins more.
