Eddie Lacy, Mike Tolbert, Derrick Henry. Some kid in KC I think. Your point is invalid. He already said before we lost Fowler he would happily play either position.

Eddie Lacy 5'10" 231
Michael Turner 5'10" 237
Michael Bush 6'1" 243



So none are 250(official combine weights listed). 2 arent even in the damn league. But it is not as rare as im making it out to be. lol ok

You are trying too hard. Turner was billed as a 250 pounder throughout his entire career and if you believe Lacy is 231 right now, you are too retarded for words.

Mike Tolbert is a FB who was undrafted.

Derrick Henry is 6'3" or 6'4" and prob isnt 250 lbs.

I don't understand why what i said is offending you. Facts are facts. Im not hating on White but RBs that big are rare in the NFL. He has a better shot at being an NFL LB at that size than a RB. That is 100% fact.

I agree with Lester. White at LB would be a great fit.

I'm not offended at all. Hell, I don't really even disagree with you. You were acting like a 250 lb running back was a once in a decade type of thing and I was pointing out that it isn't all that rare.

The bottom line is that the kid can probably play either position at the next level. Let the coaches sort it out.

That was just based on his examples, and even based on your it is still proven to be rare, as none of the guys you mentioned fit the criteria.. There are 1, maybe 2 RBs in a given year that are around the 6'0 mark and that big.

Why is the NFL your metric? He is a senior in high school.

There were three running backs that size at the combine just last year. Jesus, just let Devin and the coaches figure out where he should play.

If we signed 3 5* backers in this class, no one would be talking about this.

technically he is already enrolled in LSU. However, we were simply talking about the next level, which is the NFL.

So he just give up his dream of playing RB because most players his size play linebacker? How do you know he won't drop weight like LF did.

True. You're just some guy with over 200,000 posts on a message board.

I thought the same thing. However, if this were the case Les would not have made that comment and DW probably would be 4th string RB.
