I just watched tape of Devin SIngletary, and he is the closest thing to Kareem hunt in this draft, both have very similar running style speed elusiveness vision and balance. but I think Hunt had a little more power,

I think Sanders and Singletary and Henderson are best fits in this offense and Montgomery as well but slightly different kind of back

Unless the Bears trade up, Sanders will be gone.

The Bears had 468 rushing attempts last season and I would expect that to hold or even have a slight reduction as Mitchell improves

The question now is how does it get split up [2018 carries in this offense]

Mike Davis

Tarik Cohen [99]

Draft Pick

Cordarrelle Patterson

Other WRs [16]

QB [19 called runs]

4th RB [Mizzell, Cunningham, Nall] [20]

Random Craziness [Hicks, Burton] [2]
I'd just predict a few things...

All those end runs Nagy had poor frail Miller and Gabriel do... and even some of Cohen's...
-- those will done by Patterson , and a lot more, and up the middle, cause he can actually do it well. He doesn't have a faster 40, but he's fast, and can do those runs better than most anyone -- And he's a surprisingly big dude, with nice moves, and can smash another 2 yards at the end of those runs and take the punishment. I think he'll be used a lot.

Cordarrelle Patterson: 60.

We don't know which RB the Bears draft, so it's hard to say, but I think...

If he's good, Davis will receive the lion's share of rushes: 220

Draft RB: 110

I think Cohen's runs will decrease to 70.

Mitch called runs: 15

Everyone else (Nall, Miller, Gabriel, etc): 25

Yeah, now is not the time to look at how the RB carries are gonna be divided considering you don't even have a worthy starting RB yet.

They didn't have a worthy starting RB last year either
