clearly Murray thinks highly of Gray. Emphasized that he's a very good receiver out of the backfield as well as a willing pass pro blocker. Interesting point on taking the 4-5 yard runs early in the game, tiring out the D and getting the longer runs later in the game. Looking forward to seeing Gray play.
I feel like Gray was the best value pick of the draft...

And takes away the sting of what they gave up in the trade to get Deonte Banks. He is the perfect complement to Barkley and Breida. What he lacks in explosiveness he easily makes up for in intelligence, vision, shiftiness, pass-catching, and ball security. He lacks the luxury item of long speed, but checks every other damn box. You can't ask for anything more from a 5th round pick.
Have a good feeling about this pick

They have needed a solid north/south back for quite some time.

I don't think a 5th and a 7th sting much.

You're right, I was thinking more along the lines the of the combined trade ups for Banks and Hyatt too.
I like the fact that Gray is here

in case Barkley isn’t. His agent is a putz and I can see a scenario where he holds out until week 10. She wants to play hardball with no ammunition. He seems all too willing to listen to her.
