Talk me into Gibbs, I can’t help but see a smaller CEH on a worse team.
CEH reach is fair, he wasn’t anyone’s RB1 that year. I do think perhaps lack of depth in this class helps Gibbs though. I guess I just worry how Lions use him. He’s not getting goal line work, not running between the tackles, will have to pass protect to play 3rd down. I guess maybe I’m just out on him. Are people happy if he’s Reggie Bush?
Imagine if the Chiefs took everyone else's number 1 back Taylor
the RB landscape is already pretty much filled out they just fell because teams dont need them
even with the lions, they didn't need gibbs
swift even despite his injuries is still a very talented back and bringing in monty they woulda just been fine
but instead they decide they wanted to go out of their way and spend a potential franchise changing draft pick on a running back
just let that soak in for a minute

Draft capital tells you all you need to know , if you’re going to be wrong on a guy be wrong on Gibbs. The film doesn’t lie he did it against SEC defenses and guess what , the NFL is basically SEC defenders. The size issue was big red flag for Devonta Smith , different position but same argument. If you can succeed in the SEC you can succeed in the NFL. Gibbs is a stud, get in before the price goes up.
Poor comparison
He’s more like kamara, just a bit smaller in weight but he’ll bulk up some to handle the workload
Lions are kinda good now so upside for multiple TDs is actually a thing
We aren’t talking football pick over fantasy pick. Gibbs will be money. He is too talented. Don’t be afraid just because lions drafted high. That should give you more confidence to take him
Lions are gonna own that division the next 5 years
Gibbs value is in fantasy team name opportunity. If you own him you can roll with Gibbs it to me baby.
lions have a good team. Their offensive line is in the top. Gibbs 40 4.36 CEH 40 4.60 They soured on Swift and replaced him. They also added 3 d backs in free agency
