Best pass-catching RB to enter the league in at least 5 years.
Love the pick. Speed Kills!
Very surprising pick, but can understand it. See this as a prove it year for Swift. Plus we have a three headed monster behind a top five Oline.
Oof.
wanted Bijan so bad-always hated Atlantaā¦I freaking knew it !!
Now that the shock is over, I realize that listening to the amateurs on radio and tv can distort reality.
Jahmyr Gibbsā comp was Alvin Kamara! Speed, vision, and can catch.
Jack Campbell is #1 cover LB who tackles, communicates and captains.
If I just look at The Players, theyāre both ballers!
Iām only mad because my mock draft simulator said theyād be there in R2.
Clearly my simulator was WRONG, but that doesnāt mean that my GM is.
Told you guys
CBS sports had Gibbs ranked No. 14 overall:
We got two solid players and look like they will contribute sooner than later: I am stoked
Bet Swift is traded for a 6th rounder.
Iām surprised but they must think heās a stud.
I donāt know dates, but a silly late camp trade would be nice. If not, the backfield is most excellent, especially behind a top five Oline.
Oh yes, Iā m content.
I wonder if heās used at some point in a package to trade back up
Holmes certainly seemed excited to get him

Very well could be. Maybe with him in a trade they get a 4th or 5th for him.
An early post after last season was about RBās and I had Gibbs. It was a weird season for Alabama and Bijon had a great year but I still liked Gibbs. I get the positional value argument and also understand we just got Montgomery and still have Swift, but if that OL can make some openings heās going to crush it.
silly wild assed guess.
Yes he is RB2 in this draft
Heās the 14th ranked player.
Like LBer (which I expected in rd. 2) I also knew the Lions were going to take a RB. They are one Swift injury away from being average in the backfield again. Montgomery is solid but you need 2-3 guys who can get the job done now and Swift is simply a 3rd down back at this point.
Gibbs is explosive. I was set up for a draft like this in that theyāre simply a lot of guys to like and not many to love. I am okay with this pick. ESP. as we got an extra 2nd rounder. But I am happy to add Gibbs to the RB room.
