I love Deuce, but I don't think he has ever run that fast in his life.

Actually Vereen is the best RB the Patriots have. He's more versatile. Can catch and run when called upon. Ridley is the better carrying back when he doesn't fumble.



The best RB New England has is Steven Ridley. His vision is fantastic, he is elusive, and he just fumbles because he holds the ball like a moron. A non-fumbling Ridley is probably a top 5 runner in the NFL.

Vereen is an interesting player. He's got a gamebreaker skill set; however, he is not very consistent. Watching him run the wheel route is something to behold though.

I'll go with this. I'm not sure it's the best, but I think this is a good comparison. McAllister had that second gear in college like Hill has. Hill is a little thicker, but overall pretty good comparison.

Funny thing is Ridley is NE best back if he doesn't have the fumble issues, but now suddenly Blount is supposed to be. Gimmee a break!

Hill is 6'2, 235. Lynch is 5'11, 215

Of RB's today, I think Foster is the best comparison, but I would go with something like Larry Johnson in his prime circa 2005/2006

I've said this a few times on here. Go watch Foster's highlights, and Hill is almost an exact copy. Both big and quick, but not power backs. Both have the hands to catch out of the backfield. Amazing vision, feet, and elusiveness for such a large frame. Now Hill can push a pile more so I believe he is stronger, but he's not the kind to lay you out on a hit.



Thing is, Fournette fits into this same category, but is as fast as a scat back, and is a very powerful runner. I just can't wait to get this guy here. I like that he does contact when necessary instead of just trying to bull ahead like Richardson, and most backs do. He's a smart runner with the strength and sheer power, to back it up.

Arian Foster.

Same size, running style, vision, strength, and speed.

Just watch.
