Who is your favorite RB for the Hawks in the Draft?

Mine is easy. Nick Chubb.
That guy is a grinder and has that "chip on his shoulder".
Big and fast as well as ability to break tackles.
Yes, please.

If you're talking first round RB it better be Guice, but if we trade for a 3rd rounder I'd love Chub at that point. He looks to be all the back (finally) but that was a pretty gruesome knee injury in '15, you gotta wonder how it'll hold up to NFL pounding.

Chubb will be long gone by the 3rd round. Plus, the Hawks are more than likely trading out of the first round.

I think Chubb is the best fit followed by Guice and Jones.
Later in the draft I would like us to select Jaylen Samuels who can also play TE, WR and FB.
He's a nightmare for Defenses because he could play anywhere on any play.

Wouldn't mind a flyer on Gaskin... should be there fairly late, breaks tackles, no major injuries, delivers at the end of runs, good hands, blocks well.... if he doesn't perform early, you cut him or place him on PS... I'm a fan of production, Gaskin certainly has done that the last several years.

People sometimes fall in love with stats and forget production or scheme fit.
It's why I think Jones would be the 3rd best RB for us. He would do well in an Andy Reid type of Offense, but I don't see the fit here where Pete wants a RB to pound the ball. Jones, I fear would wear down quickly in our scheme whereas Chubb and Guise have a possibility to do better.

Guice is another Lynch. I would love to have him. Chubb is another perfect Hawks back. Either one of them would get me excited. Jones, although a little light for the position at the next level (200 lbs) is a playmaker. He's a home run threat every time he touches the ball. PC loves freakish athletes with big play potential and he has that in Spades. I would also be excited if he was our pick, although he seems to have a bit more risk.
