    Wayne is offensive Cam Bright. A good leader they trust, who has better options behind him.

    Agree. Lake's team had no leaders on the field and DeBoer needed a establish a new culture. Papa does that, especially when RB was the thinnest position group on the team. He's not the most talented RB on the roster, but he's a solid addition to the program
    I don't want him gone or anything. He's obviously a good guy to have on the team, plays hard, is a senior leader, etc. The other guys are just more talented.

    Davis is obviously the short yardage guy. He's become really hard to stop on short yardage and always finds forward progress because he gets his job on those plays and has the explosiveness to hit someone and drive them back. He's also the fastest back and is going to keep his feet one of these days and score a long TD.

    Newton can look like shit a lot but does have burst and aggressiveness and can make some big plays. Nixon looks really quick as does Adams. Even Sunday got in there and showed the quickness to beat guys to the edge.
    Talapapa, A real lunch pail type, the kind you'd want your sister to date ?

    The big thing with Tualapapa is his pass blocking. Apparently he's elite at it and obviously Deboer values keeping his Penix clean over a high ceiling running game

    Chinned for ‘keeping his Penix clean.’ Haven’t seen that one.

    Potential for soaking, ear, elbow, and maybe butt stuff.
