4 is very solid. They all have talent and will get more practice reps.

We’ll probably take some walkons to run with the practice squad.

This season only 2 RB’s had over 200 yards Diggs and Williams. KJ only had 165 yards for the season. For the season:
Diggs-653
Williams-288
Cain-182
KJ-165


You left out 1400 yds by JD5... He took a lot of carries out of their mouths. Not complaining but next yr the RB's will have to carry the rushing burden.

I feel like 5 Rbs is the sweet spot.

Perkins has scored a touchdown every time he has taken a handoff this year.

I'm thinking nout injuries. If a couple Orr 3 get hurt is what I'm saying. Homer back is doing fine

I havn't been this excited for our running back room since Miles left. Jackson looks like the real deal once in a decade type running back and I think Holly surprise some. Then you have the young speedster coming in and another 5 star coming in the following season. If we can keep this group intact no portal guys are needed and would just be a hindrance IMO.

But you had a qb thar had 1365ish yards. That's the real reason for the low numbers

Look at my post, two below the original.

“ It’s helped big time with a QB with 1252 yards rushing.”
