Build that run game by drafting/signing a badass OL, not by spending a higher premium pick on a RB..
Now, with that being said I am fully on board with adding fresh legs/blood to our backfield as the Doug Martin experiment better damn well finally be over, Sims can't run worth **** and Quiz is nothing more than a nice change of pace guy.. however I do like how Barber runs..
My top 3 guys RBs for us this year are:
R. Freeman Oregon
Guy reminds me of vintage Michael Turner..runs hard, big bodied guy, lotta wear on the tires though
J. Adams ND
Another big guy, got progressively better over his career, has some nice speed
B. Scarborough Bama
May be my favorite RB, for us, in this class...runs like a man possessed..good speed in the open field, because of the talent in Bama's backfield, he wasn't run into the ground like some previous Tide RBs..
Edit: ****, this was in response to your previous post..should've quoted you, my bad..
For me, I do like Barber, I just would like to add some home run lighting to his thunder. As well, our offence has alot of size but not alot of speed (outside of the aging Jackson). Adding a RB with speed just seems to make sense. Part of the reason I love Love. But if we miss out on Love, I think Michel would be a nice fit.
