So this is my mid round RB want...Now I'm a college guru on breaking down a player so this info is from other site ...Maybe if and when we do a trade we could get a mid 3rd pick and draft him ... Sony Michel, RB, Georgia Height: 5-11 Weight: 212 Michel is averaging 7.3 yards per carry in 2017 for 903 yards with 13 touchdowns. He would be a three-down starter at most schools, but Georgia has a huge stable of backs whom the coaches spread carries to. Team sources have told WalterFootball that Michel has a lot of fans in the scouting community and is receiving second-day grades. Some even prefer him over Nick Chubb because Michel has done more in the passing game as a receiver and blocker during his collegiate career. Michel played well in 2016 while serving as the backup to Nick Chubb. On the season, Michel took 152 carries for 840 yards - 5.3-yard average - and four touchdowns. He also had 22 receptions for 149 yards. At most schools, Michel would be a starter, but he has been Chubb's backup for the vast majority of his collegiate career. Still, Michel is a rushing threat with deceptive speed. He averaged 5.3 yards per carry in 2015 for 1,161 yards and eight touchdowns. He also had 26 receptions for 270 yards and three scores. Michel looks like he could be a mid-round steal for a NFL team Read more: http://walterfootball.com/draft2018RB.php#ixzz50KoP3fd5

They'll likely be there. Everyone can't go in the first and second. There's too many RBs in this draft.

Well if you are right the Niners would be crazy not to pull the trigger with one of their 3rd rd picks on either guy. I think I prefer Michael but Chubb is great too.

Great way to rebound and close out the game. He'd look good in KS's offense too.

There's your Devonta Freeman, tjd808185. Even down to the fumbling.

Ha. I have been drooling over him all year despite the fumbles.

He is damn ideal for Shanny's outside zone stretch plays.

Michel, Breida and Williams would be lights out.

I wanted him in the 4th but it looks like he is a round 2 or early 3rd pick now.

I still like Wadley more but down to draft this guy in the 4th if he's there.

Now this guy looks like a Shanahan RB...fluid runner and excellent receiver. He and Chubb are quite a 1-2 punch, but of the two, Michel is the better fit. Very impressive.
