Daily News | Eagles can’t afford to splurge on Texas’ Bijan Robinson - or any running back
It’s hard to say what the Eagles should do with the 10th overall pick in next month’s draft. It’s easy to say what they shouldn’t do.
The hype makes some sense, especially when you watch the way Robinson gets in and out of his breaks on tape. At 5-foot-11 and 215 pounds, he has some of the quickest feet you’ll see on a player who is built to run between the tackles.
Even if those aren’t the words of a desperate man, you can certainly see the appeal of pairing a blue-chip talent like Robinson with the running lanes that this Eagles offense generates. In Hurts, they already have one player in their backfield who can change a game with his feet. How would opposing defenses contend with two?Here’s why it’s wrong. The 10th pick in the draft is a place where a team has the potential to add a player who is the cornerstone of a Super Bowl team.
