I take a lot of Jeremiah Love at the beginning of the third... I've taken Love in 9.6% of my drafts. I know people hate that. I completely understand. Um I think the main reason people hate it is because the last two running backs that were drafted super early in bad offenses that ended up not working out, they were Bejon and Ashton Genty. And obviously Genty is the most recent example. But I want to point out with those running backs that face planted is they were both round one picks in their rookie seasons. Jeremiah Love is a third round pick.

Third-round pick in bad offense is defensible; market learned from early RB busts.
Flock Fantasy takes Love in the third round (average ADP 24.8, only 1.3% higher than field consensus) and has taken him in 9.6% of drafts despite widespread criticism. The source defends the pick by distinguishing Love from prior early-round RB busts (Bejian Robinson and Ashton Gentry) who were both round-one picks in bad offenses; Love as a third-round pick in a bad offense is more defensible. The source argues the market has learned its lesson on early RB picks in poor situations. Drafted as running back two in the source's team; source states 'Running back, I feel great,' indicating confidence in the running back room depth.
