NFL Draft Analysis – RB Mikel LeShoure
We’re starting to close in on the home stretch here and one thing is clear - nothing is clear.
Which is just to say: situation normal.
It’s hard to gauge where LeShoure’s value is, though that is no fault of his. With the emergence of running back committees, even a good back can see himself fall out of the first round and while it might have been unfathomable a few years ago, it wouldn’t shock me to see both LeShoure and fellow backs Mark Ingram and Ryan Williams still on the board on day two.
Which only means somebody could get a great value in the second. This isn’t to say LeShoure isn’t a value in the first. Just that running back has been de-emphasized as a need in today’s NFL.
