RB Thread

@RavensMania I think your under selling Bryce Love a bit. He plays bigger than his size and forced the most missed tackles in the country. All on a bad ankle.

Also, Rashaad Penny is going to be a steal in the draft. He can do everything well and could have a similar impact on a team like Kareem Hunt or David Johnson. Very similar skill set

This is definitely not a finished work as I haven’t been able to watch a lot of tape on all of them. This is just an initial assessment. I like Penny a lot actually.
 
Read that Harris is staying for his senior year at Alabama. Kind of a surprised since he was barely used in the natty game and Najee Harris is the next workhorse there

Harris is smart dude. He'll get full degree, learn another year from the greatest college coach ever and still end up 3rd rounder in 2019 (fingers crossed, stay healthy).

With Bo declaring doesnt that mean harris gets first crack at being the bonafide workhorse in bama next year or is that not how itll work?

Nah, it'll be committee again.

Harris X 2
Jacobs
Robinson

You never know, with Tua doing well, Hurts might get snaps from the backfield, too.

Brian Robinson, was true freshman this year. 4 stars, local boy, grew up a mile from Denny stadium. Had few snaps early in the season, you couldn't see any drop off. Quite impressive.

Najee Harris is one of those special freaks. I hate to admit but he looks little more impressive than Henry did at that stage.

Najee looks Adrian Peterson freakish
 
Nyheim Himes from NC State declared, and he's very underrated. He's small but stocky and explosive, good route runner, good return man. He could be a great compliment to our main tandem. I think he also fits our style nicely.
 
Watching fournette run all over Steelers today is why I still want us to draft a RB high. Alex Collins is a good stop gap. But he isn’t a true work horse.
I know we won’t be able to get barkley, but Bryce love or rashaad penny in the 2nd would be awesome

Najee Harris is a million times better than Henry was.. Just going to leave that out there. Doesn't run upright, and damn powerful.
