Thoughts on Jeremiyah Love

A lot of drafts had him going to the Chiefs. Now that the Chiefs signed Walker, Love could free fall.

If (and that's a big if) if he's there at our pick do you draft him?

 

Yes I would, I believe he will be a superstar barring injury. I thought for sure
that he would be a NO Saint, now with Etienne signing not sure where he ends up?

 

I like him as a player a good bit. I would imagine someone takes him before us. Commanders, Cowboys, Jets, Vikings, Panthers could all use a back and pick in front of us as well. I wouldn't take him at our pick. We currently don't have a need and honestly, I am still hesitant to take RB's in the first. He seems a safe bet to be good, but still.

 

I doubt he drops too far but it would not hurt my feelings if we traded up for him. Many would say it makes no sense and I get that. Love and Sadiq are the biggest game changing offensive players in this draft. Love would be great to take pressure off of Rodgers or a young QB. I doubt they do it though. I'm with AQL though, Woods in the first.

 

Maybe the Titans

 

No way that Love falls to #21, I'll be shocked if he falls out of the top 10.

 

Jaylen Warren 2 years left at $7 million per year.
Rico Dowdle just signed a 2 year deal worth 12.5 million
KAleb Johnson has 3 years left on his rookie contract.

I really don't see the Steelers going anywhere near the RB position until Day 3; and then it will probably be a FB.

 

Titans or commanders may take the leap.... if not, then definitely a free fall may be in order.... just not out of the 1st rd

 

We are definitely drafting a RB day three. No reason not to. Johnson isn't a guarantee to make the roster, and quite frankly he didn't look like an NFL caliber player at all last year. Hope I am wrong, but I could easily see us take a late round back and have that guy in a RB3 battle with Johnson for the roster spot.

 

RB is not a pressing need. Also, our O-line is a joke. There is no reason to draft a RB unless they have given up on Johnson already (I have : ). Now if Love is there at 21, I would trade him for multiple early round picks. IMO, Love had a very good offensive line. Even the backup RB(Price) averaged 6 yards a carry. This is not to say Love is not very talented. I am fine if they select him, but I would rather address other areas of need.
