    Gaskin as a true Frosh is one of the best backs we've had. When he completes his body of work, he will be in the top tier of this year is any indication.

    And DW sucks.

    Gaskin is a Bishop Sankey-esque runner. Bishop was as good as anyone we've had save for Dillon and maybe Nip.

    Gaskin is about as good a Husky back as I can remember.

    I hope we can figure out a rotation next year that makes some sense (unlike this year where we keep forcing DW in).

    I assume McGrew will play, Coop is probably our second best tailback and DW could be an interesting third down option, but his fumbling scares the shit out of me.

    Why do you hate Napoleon?
    You can remember the 90s?

    Disagree. There's plenty behind Gaskin. Running back is the easiest position to project, so I don't think it's premature to expect McGrew to immediately factor into the RB depth next year. Kid is an absolute stud. Washington, while he can't make a guy miss to save his life, is still a speedy receiving threat out of the backfield, and is perfectly adequate for a backup running back. Cooper is average, but he's not going to be asked to do anything more than spell Gaskin, McGrew, or Washington a few times per game, if that.

    And sure, Dotson and Coleman suck. But who the fuck cares? They're going to be our 5th and 6th string running backs next year.

    All of this.

    D Warsh is a plus at blitz pickup and wheel routes but he lacks any vision as a running threat.

    If that's your #2 next year.... FYFMFE

    Wikipedia is my source.

    Read about some other dude, like Dillon or something. He was special with the patriots.

    The problem with DWarsh is his fumbling. Sure, he's Gorman Thomas on runs, but it's an extra dimension that in his at bats he could score runs for the opponent.

    So what you are saying is that you aren't a fan of him coming up w a runner on 3rd and 1 out?

    I think what he's saying is he runs like Mays but he hits like shit.
