Maybe I see it differently than most, but its just my honest assessment. And honestly, I don't know if we'll find IT in the draft either. I'm not sold on too many of these RBs coming out. Fornette scares me with those ankles. I've heard rumors he's thinking of having surgery on them this offseason. Do you really want to spend ANOTHER first round pick on someone who's going to miss his entire rookie campaign? McCafferty was banged up all year round too. I like Cook and the Oklahoma kid, Samaje Perine who could be a good replacement for Hill. Kareem Hunt and James Conner are also names that stand out to me.
What I am saying is that the Bengals don't need to spend a pick in the 1st half of the draft on a RB, just fix the OL. People are down on Hill, justifiably it would seem. However, people also forget how quickly he can take it to the house, when given a crease.. We also have a back that can juke, jump cut, and accelerate with the best of them, his name is Giovanni Bernard. Pretty hard for either of those two to produce to their abilities, when there are defenders in the backfield as they receive the ball...
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
