We have seen both of these guys take a huge tumble down the draft sheets over the last month due to their injuries. Both are expect back in the first few weeks if not before. Yet these injuries have been enough to drop Mathews from 1.7 to 2.11 over the last month and TR from 2.2 to 3.3. What are your feelings on both of these young backs? Does the drop make you feel it's not far enough or hell.....these guys are nice values now!
On Mathews - I would love to be staring at him at the end of the 2nd if I picked in the top 4. Pair him with one of the top 3 backs or even Rodgers and once you get past the first couple weeks that could be sick value. I still like Mathews a lot this year and see this as value.
On Richardson - Cleveland is still a mess and minor or not, it is a knee. I love this kid long term, but this is about where he should be going IMO. These things linger some times and who knows as a rookie. Still a guy who I feel will finish strong, but I think he could start very slow over the first 6 games or so.
