[QUOTE="Heyjoe4, post: 1028378, member: 13032"] Yeah I agree with this. If anything, RBs who were average to above average in college can surprise in the NFL. I think Jones was a 4th round pick by TT. Pass protection is probably something RBs don't do a lot in college, but it's a big part of the NFL game, especially in a RPO designed as a pass, and in secondary or safety blitz pickups. Another highly desired skill for a RB is receiving - running routes, acting as a safety valve for a QB. And it gets a RB involved in the game without having to take a pounding running through the LOS. Christian McCaffrey is the best example, and Jones is pretty damn good at it as well. I think it was Pete Dougherty who said GB could take as many as 3 RBs in the draft. Sounds about one too many to me. But Gluten and his team will be active looking for RBs. [/QUOTE]
