I remember the first time I heard him mentioned as a blue-chip, top-of-draft prospect. It was on a long run of his in 2010 (I guess). Think he was playing Florida and broke off a long one. The analysts were raving about such tremendous speed and playmaking ability from a bigger back. I didn't see any of it. Looked like a normal-speed, normal-bodied college back. The kind of guy who will pop in workouts but didn't show that athleticism on the field. Couldn't believe I was agreeing with Jim Dumbfuck Brown, but I just didn't see anything special there.
As a rookie, he was OK. Consistent for 3-4 yards, but no explosion whatsoever. Now, he's barely a roster-able talent, as he doesn't play a ST role that your #2/#3 RB should to justify his roster spor. He's surprisingly shown some wiggle when untouched, but he's one of the NFL's worst regular RBs at generating yardage after contact.
Yeah...He's was an average back...

No, you're right.. we can see now that he's a transcendent talent.
Jerome Bettis fked Barry Sanders and Trent fell out of one of their *****
giant holes to run thru, horrible tackling, yup... looks like your typical college highlight video. Should we post one of Archer too?

Let it go...
Yes but this one had Lose Yourself in the background
I never said he was Jerome Bettis or Barry Sanders. What I said is that "he was NOT an average back in college"...
had to look him up.I just think he benefited from the line as insaniti said. I really never saw anything special there.
I'm no Bama fan, but my favorite back of theirs was Siran Stacy. He was awesome when I was 8 or 9.
had to look him up.
did you know about this?
