I’ll be honest, I’m kinda hurt. I’m feeling left out.....

 

If it makes you feel better, I'm quite sure he'd rather meet with you than the Jets.

If it comes down to the two of them I'd take Najee Harris over Travis Etienne.

 

Etienne seems a better fit on paper as he's faster and appears to be a better (or at least more versatile) receiver, and thus brings the elements we're currently missing in the backfield. 

 

I prefer Harris because he still brings those elements - he's faster than Singletary or Moss and has better hands than either - and he's a lot harder to bring down than Etienne.

 

It comes down to philosophy, and I generally prefer a RB who can create his own opportunities and consistently picks up positive yards over the home run hitter who needs clean holes to break free.

Granted it's a whole new regime at One Bills Drive, but I think I'm still a bit twitchy thinking about the Bills squandering yet another 1st rounder on someone out of Clemson.

The harder to bring down part is what I like about Najee Harris. Like his predecessor, Harris runs with bad intentions. Ready and willing to punish would be tacklers. Running or blocking. Harris will provide excellent protection for Allens blind side. Good hands coming out of the backfield with a large catching radius. Thinking man/process kind of guy in my opinion.

 

The problem I see in all this wishful thinking on my part is Miami and Pittsburgh.

 

Harris has Steeler written all over him I'm afraid to say....

Etienne reminds me a lot of CJ Spiller.

After doing some in depth film study on this year's RB class, one player I find intriguing is Chuba Hubbard out of Oklahoma State as a mid round option. He's certainly not my idea of a prototypical RB but he's got world class speed and pretty good hands, which would add a whole new element to our backfield.

 

As a courtesy I'll link the film below so you can do your own evaluation.
