Speaking of RBs

HFNY

Putting the whole Callier debate aside, D. Washington started reminding me of Chris Warren Sr. when KB was talking about working on his running style. Sure the last 3 teams we played mostly sucked but the trend is good. Either way 2015 will be interesting:

And Chris Warren Sr. in these few boner-inducing Seahawk clips from back in the day:

Chris Warren was legit. It was sad he played on shit teams, because the dude was fantastic.

I was doing some TBS and read that Chris Warren Jr weighed in at 6'2" 240 pounds at the Army All American Bowl registrarion yesterday.

That is a gigantic RB even by NFL standards, let alone high school senior. Could be a better Mike LB at that size.

He looked kind of lumbering to me. What's he run? I doubt it's any better than 4.7. I have some concern he is simply too big for high schoolers, but it won't translate into domination in college.

Ron Dayne and his pile of money think otherwise

I usually agree about being skeptical when a kid is a big body dominating little kids, but my general rule is if the papa was a star in the NFL there is a decent chance his gene pool contains a little something extra that makes him special. If his name was Johnny Kirton I'd be a little more concerned.

If you are going to make fun of the Pain Train then I am out!

It will be interesting to see who emerges as our rb next year. I hate the 3-man platoon thing.

Dwayne W. Had some good games against shitty defenses but is still boom or bust. When he's not ripping off a 50 yard open field run, he's getting stopped behind the line of scrimmage and still looks like a WR playing RB. His field vision is terrible. There were numerous times last year where he has a space the size of the grand canyon if he cuts left. Instead he cuts right and runs into the entire defense.

Lavon C. looks like a true RB and has some moves but when he's in, the play looks like it's going in slow motion. He honestly looks like the slowest man on the field when he has the ball.

Cooper is a nice story but his injuries have left him as a guy who is mediocre at everything.

RB is not usually a position where you get better with age. If a guy is gonna be a star, you can tell in his 2nd year in the program.

Hopefully we get Warren or Gaskin surprises people. There's also that 150 lb. rs freshman but our current RBs aren't scaring anyone.
