I was being a little dramatic, but if you look at Trent Richardson, then look at tahj jones, Trent looks twice his size

Huh ? How is a 230lb running back twice his size? He's heavier than 205lb right now too I can promise you!

Yeah, there is no way tahj or Debo will be 205 lbs come the season opener.

tahj is listed as 6'2 205

tr is 5'9 230


I swear, every season people bitch about players weights... Shep, Minter, Baker, Mingo. Mainly has been the lb corp, but some people even wanted PP7 at safety cus he was 220 lbs.

I think lamin is going to have a stout season, but I'm questioning tahj jones and the other OLB due to their lack of size abilities to stop the run. I know tahj has speed, but how does his 205 pound frame stop a 260 pound tightend or a 230 pound runningback that is twice his size? Has he gained any weight? This might sound stupid but I'm very curious


Lamin had a hell of a season last year. He was just overshadowed by Minter. Minter had about 140 tackles and Barrow like 107

I think Melvin red shirts for sure. I'd like to see beckwoth redshirt too if not he will special team and maybe situational de. But we have A LOT of depth. Future is bright with Kwon, Debo, Lewis, and the other young backers. Which two am I forgetting. Grainer and who ekse

Todd Gurley, 230+ lb RB for UGA, will provide an answer to your question soon enough.
