I don't watch much college at all (I strangely never got into it, maybe just forgot they played the games on Sat in my younger days). All my tape study is during offseason draft process.

Izzy Abanikanda was just a back who caught my eye lately. He's 5'11" 215 lbs. He might be a scat back right now but I feel he develop improving his already solid game. The one year of production could mean he lasts longer than some other RBs. He also broke Tony Dorsetts single game rushing record for Pitt.

Charlie Jones just seemed like a solid player and for depth at slot, felt comfortable taking him there for now.

As to Durham, he was my 6th pick but wasn't a 6th rounder lol. I traded down in 4 and picked up a couple 7ths. Used those 7ths I got to trade up from 6th back to 5th.
