Most overrated back in history of game. A light south breeze knocks him down for a loss.

Some dude named Zurlon Tipton is playing instead of him today.

Idiot.

The context of the discussion is the draft.

The speed/ quickness is just not there.

I would focus on sliming down and working on 10 yard burst

You just don't understand. Maybe I should have said McFadden instead? He's the only in the same category as those two off the top of my head from the last decade in terms of sheer talent as an everydown back. You're an idiot if you don't understand what I'm getting at IMO.

What makes Fournette a better talent than Nick Chubb or Todd Gurley or Demarco Murray or Trent Richardson for that matter? I'm really interested in how you came to that conclusion. You're right. I just don't understand. Please explain. You're an idiot for mentioning Fournette in the same breath as Peterson. Peterson ran for almost 2k yards as a freshman. He couldn't be stopped. What exactly makes you think Fournette is half the back as Peterson? Because he's big and runs fast? See everyone else I listed.

Don't know if I'd say he's lazy. Most people are lazy or they aren't. By all accounts Richardson was never lazy. I think it's in his head at this point. The trade fricked up his psyche. He wasn't a world beater but was serviceable as a rookie and found the end zone a lot. He was voted as a top 100 overall player after his rookie season. I think it's all mental at this point.

Peterson had 339 carries his freshman year at 5.7 yards a carry.

LF had 152 less carries, but still carried 187 times at 5.5 yards a carry.

If LF received 300+ carries, (and we have any semblance of a passing game) I think he could produce 2K.

I recall one of 247 Sports' evaluators mentioning back when Lacy committed that several of them favored Lacy's upside over Richardson who was the more college-ready player.


I think Richardson would benefit from losing around 10-20 pounds. His vision sucks but it'd help if he at least had some semblance of burst and ability to make defenders miss.
