I disagree. LF is noticeably more talented. First, he's considerably faster. Second, he has quicker feet (similar to Hilliard). And I hope he turns out to be a tougher runner. IMO that was Hill's weakness; the only times he got bonus yards was when he got in the clear. He never got those "Hester" or "Ridley" yards.

With that said, I don't expect LF to contribute at that level during the first half season. But he'll probably be considerably better than Hill.

I saw Hill get a LOT of tough yards in the Iowa game.

I disagree, but even if that were true, here's the thing: that is a running back's job - to find the "clear." It's not like the line blocks differently when other backs are in the game - Hill is the one who always finds "the clear."
