oh I definitely know that after 18 years of marriage

I think it's Pick #68 - Atlanta Falcons (Money227) on the clock for some time now. It is a holiday weekend.

Perhaps we give the 12 hour requirement a rest till Monday morning?

Sorry guys. Holiday requirements in full force. No commentary until Monday, but to keep draft going...

Atlanta Falcons select Bishop Sankey, RB, Washington.

Intriguing...First RB in the draft goes 3rd round...and it's Sankey, not Hyde or Mason. Not a bad choice at all, the RB draft class is just hella murky. I'd like it developing this way, since it means we could land Terrence West in the 4th or 5th round.

Great idea. Waiting until Monday won't hurt anyone.

Agree completely. Definitely thought about Hyde and Mason. Just like Sankey's versatility and receiving ability in Atlanta's offense. This RB crop is all about fit in my opinion. I might be off on what Atlanta is looking for, but I feel like Sankey is the best fit for them and I don't think he's around in the 4th.

Last year is a good comparison. I believe the top RB consensus prior to the draft was, I believe, Eddie Lacy? And he ended up being the 4th RB taken.

I think skill set is definitely going to be a factor. The RB position is going through some major metamorphosis. Gone are the days where you find that "one guy" to be the workhorse. Now you have multiple backs, each with their own role. And that's why more and more, older RBs struggle to find a home after their deals expire, because it's easier to draft a role-based guy and build your running game by committee.
