It's like the narrator correcting something a character said on Arrested Development.

Didn’t get that many carries but he had a great season

 

[Tony4Canes]

What was his projected pick?

 

[gacaneaddict]

What was his projected pick?

Deep and talented RB class, but I thought he would go in top 4 rounds.

 

[JamesQuall]

What was his projected pick?

Not sure I saw any for him. I assumed he would go between rounds 3-5.

 

[Canesfan1899]

A team is getting a steal in Martinez at this point in the draft.

 

[TriStarCane]

**** not even a top 15 at the position?

 

[eurocane]

Is there sth. we don’t know about Martinez, I am wondering. He is stíll on the board.

Martinez pre-draft rankings:

PFF - #9 RB #80 Overall - 3rd RD
CBS - #10 RB #131 Overall - 4th RD
ESPN - #12 RB #123 Overall - 4th RD
NFL.com - #17 RB #195 Overall - 6th RD

With so many good RB's, it was a "pick your flavor" type draft with a wide range of outcomes.

Unfortunately NFL.com is the most accurate - but the consensus was Martinez would go higher.

This is going to HURT recruiting

First Round Management strikes again

 

[UMercury21]

i think these forum talent "evaluators" are the same ones the athletes listen to when they decide to declare for the nfl draft.

 

[PennsylvaniaCane]

Think Martinez was misused here…..or underused. Should have been a 1300-1500 yard guy. I think if he hits those numbers he goes around the 3rd round.

 

[JHallCanes]

I think the concern is that Mario wore him down in college with his 10 carries in the most crucial game of the season

Tuff and physical got us again

 

[TwentySix]

Dolphins just drafted Ollie Gordon, who I don’t think I’ve ever seen go 3 straight carries without limping off. How is Martinez still on the board man

 

[AtrainCane]

Did he have eligibility left?

NFL GMs checking in with Lyle

 

[TwentySix]

Did he have eligibility left?

Yeah, he was a true junior.
