Perine and Foreman actually run like big backs unlike Hill. But Foreman is bad at picking up the blitz.

McNichols is sounding better to me as he is more versatile which is what we need with Zamp as OC.

I don't really consider Foreman to run like a big back. He's very fast for his size and tries to use his speed to beat out defenders vs barreling through them. One of his weaknesses is he needs to be more physical given his size. Perine is a bowling ball, but "pedestrian" speed. He's a solid back though.
I'd say my favorite RBs in the 3-4 range are Hunt, Perine, then McNichols. All solid, but likely not spectacular.
I wouldn't be opposed to a RB in the second round, but I think the Bengals can wait on a RB. This is a good RB draft class and a RB won't be the focal of the Bengals' offense. That goes to AJ Green and Tyler Eifert.
