    McCoy's replacement: Barkley, Penn State

    Very similar runner, jump cuts and all. Same height, maybe 10 lb heavier, but a bit slower.

    McCoy drafted in the 2nd round. But Barkley likely in the 1st round.

    At this time, though, I don't see the Bills spending a 1st round pick on a RB next year.

      It makes sense since we already have our franchise QB in Nathan Peterman (who can actually defy the natural laws that govern this planet according to one poster).

        i agree. they wouldn't draft a RB in the first round. It'll be a DB
        I came.
        I saw.

            What ever they do, I just hope they DONOT trade all those picks accumulated and shot over one prospect QB. Ideally I would like to see one QB, one stud WR in the first round, let them grow together (kind of like Dalton and Green, but hoping for doing better than Dalton in a supposedly QB prospect rich year).

              No way I would use a first round pick on a running back.

                What if you could get Darnold with the first 1st and Barkley with the second? Look at the difference Gurley is making in St. Louis.

                  Gurley was good as a rookie but the Rams still had a losing record, just like the Bills with Shady. To win in the NFLthese days you need a QB or you need everything else to be perfect.

                    As much as I'd love it, the situations simply won't match. We need a QB way more than anything else, and we'd have to pass on one to grab Barkley.

                    Barring injury, I have few doubts Barkley will go top five, personally. If we had a QB to afford picking Barkley, he is an absolute difference maker.

                      And this year? Goff looks like a franchise QB and their offense is among the best in the league by riding him.

                          This is going to end up how we thought it would. We survived the first half but this is going to get out of hand if we can't play offense.

                            Barkley is the rare player I might spend a 1st on. He's better than Elliott.

                              Barkley is the college RB I've seen since McGahee pre-injury.

                              He's a beast, supposedly ran 4.33 this year, huge strength and his balance is out of this world.

                              Dude looked like Walyer Payton in Emmit Smith's body vs Iowa yesterdsy.
