I worry about a lot of things with Corum. Mileage, injury history, size, etc. I don't know about this pick. The more I look it up, the more concerned I am. His character is impeccable, but I question this selection, especially with a third-round pick.
Believe I can understand your concerns. With Kyren and Corum running both together spelling each other we will be okay.

Plus his injury history isn’t that concerning just more banged up than anything.

With Corum sharing the backfield with “The Don” the last few years it worked pretty fucking good.

Nobody could stop them and people wondered why they didn’t through the ball much. You’re going to see, promise.
 
love the pick. I was actually looking at backs right before the pick.
Because if you are going to be a running team, You had better have a
second back that is more of a 1B than a 2. Rams did not have that but now they do.

Another talented super character self motivated team player.
 
Love this pick. Great vision, great balance, good in pass pro, should be a great fit in this offense.

I'd just rather a more durable running back with pass-catching ability and less sheer mileage later on (whether that's Schrader, Estime, Jaylen Wright, or Ray Davis, I'm not entirely sure). The running backs I've listened provide that. Other than Wright, they're not the athlete Corum is and none are certainly the producer Corum is, I will freely admit that. I just question the risk of the pick with a Day 2 selection when we clearly need a corner and a wide receiver.
 
Welcome to the horns Blake. :clinkingbeer:
 
With you Old School.
Absolutely love what we are doing!!

Riddle me this though.
How is 5'8 205lbs undersized?

I see a compact bowling ball with great vision and a back that will be difficult to locate among the trees.
Yeah not undersized just short he's a ball of power.

We can cry together next year when he scores over 18 TD’s rushing and wonder why he didn’t catch them!? lol

Promise you inside the 10 and on converting third downs you are are going to love his ass. Dude is a little beast.

HAIL TO THE VICTORS!
 
Snead is cooking two years in a row. Love it. I honestly didn’t expect them to go RB until day 3 but this kid is goooood. You can never have enough good RBs and CBs. Time to get a CB.

Ps and I love Jaylon Wright, think he’ll be special. If not for Corum that was my back.

5'7" with a lot of heavy mileage. 731 total touches over four years, not counting the normal wear and tear. I'm concerned about that.

I would be more concerned if he weren’t heading to a situation where he’ll be the #2 back for at least his rookie year.
