In terms of NFL skillset?

IMO is:

1. Cook
2. Fournette
3. CMac
4. Henry

EDIT: Totally forgot about Elliot, he would be 2nd or 3rd IMO.

Will DH even be a first rounder? I'd take Elliot, Fournette, and Cook over him.



I wouldn't take that dude in the first. Cook is clearly a better RB and will have a stellar NFL career. Henry does not have the fluidity to make it on the next level without a completely dominant O line. He's like Bettis but with no lateral movement. I just don't see him doing much in the league. DH certainly does not deserve the Heisman, but he'll win it because the voters are ignorant retards. DH is the Gino Toretta of RBs.

Everybody can speculate, but no one has any idea how these guys are going to pan out in the league.

I think the voting is somewhat racist.

People just can't believe a white guy is good at that position.

Henry will be such a bust.

Upright, lopping lollygag running doesn't translate well to the NFL.

CM will have a much better career, can you imagine him at New England.

CM is an all-purpose, multi-threat stud that Bill Belichick would love to have.

Henry is a dud.

As Jason Whitlock said on Cowherd, CM is the Eminem of running backs, we as a nation are racist and you have to see CM game after game to believe it just like you had to listen to Eminem song after song to believe he wasn't black when he first came out.

So in a twist of irony, an Alabama RB will win the Heisman because of reverse racism ingrained in everyone's subconscious...no white RB, no white cornerbacks, etc.

RBs rarely go in the 1st anymore but if Saban keeps giving him 45 carries per game, I wouldn't be surprised to see him slide a lot in the draft. Bama RBs already have a rep amongst GMs for being beat up when they get to the NFL and not many of them got the carries DH has been getting.


Oh for frick's sake

How's Henry going to be a major bust if he isn't selected in the top 2 rounds like many of you think he won't?
It's nice to that Henry winning the Heisman and all other awards over CM irks many of you.

Theres a good chance Henry ends up like Trent Richardson.

I don't expect DH to have a very successful career as an NFL running back, but there is absolutely zero chance of CM being a good NFL RB.

2015 is the season that just keeps giving from LSU fans. They refuse to stop making asses of themselves.

If LF7 had identical numbers to DH2, and got invited to NY, there isn't a single one of you stupid fricks that wouldn't expect him to win, and think he was completely deserving.

Instead, it's a Bama back, and you clowns are knighting for a little fricking cracker from Stanford??

Heisman hasn't meant shite for years and Tyrann not winning it proved that. He was the best player on the best team that year.

Anyone that is still convinced that Toby Gerhart was a better back than Mark Ingram should give up watching college football, because you'll never get it.

Super interested in this long list. Super interested.

Glen Coffee
Mark Ingram
Trent Richardson
Eddie Lacy

Every single good Bama back from the Saban era has been a bust in the NFL.

And don't give me Eddie Lacy has been good. 1 semi-decent season and then falling off a cliff doesn't make a back good.

EDIT: Yeldon is still TBD.

Well your opinion doesn't matter, because you just called Mark Ingram a bust and Eddie Lacy, offensive rookie of the year Eddie Lacy, a bust

You are clearly a slobbering mental midget

If Leveon Bell wasn't hurt half his rookie season, Lacy wouldn't have sniffed the award.

And Ingram is a bust. Only delusional Saints fans and Bama fans say otherwise.

Stanford player will probably succeed in the NFL. Bama player will probably underwhelm in the NFL.
