I went to high school with Eddie Lacy so I don't want to sound bias but I think Lacy and Richardson are by far the two best, no offense to Ingram but Richardson and Lacy where way more exciting to watch, and Lacy looks to have a better NFL career going compared to Ingram

Why are 1/4th of your posts new threads you've started asking offseason questions?

In all seriousness I like Trent. He was an absolute beast. And Ingram hasn't really taken off at the Saints. In all fairness though, it's a pass heavy offense.

It's the off season until Thursday, no one has played yet, so as far as I'm concerned it still is the off season

College player- Richardson

NFL player- Lacy

In Trich's defense, Lacy has a much better OL. Colts need to revamp their OL for he and luck, because Luck is running for his life and Trent is getting hit at the LOS

Don't go to Trent Richardson's defense...

Ahmad Bradshaw averaged 4.5 YPC, Donald Brown averaged 5.3 YPC, Vic Ballard averaged 4.8 YPC (albeit on limited carries) and Andrew Luck averaged 6.0 YPC. Trent Richardson was the only player that lacked a strong YPC for the offense last year, and the same was true when he played for the Cleveland Browns the year before.

Trent Richardson's problem is vision and a tendency to tiptoe (in his Jordan's) behind the line of scrimmage. He displays indecisiveness on almost every carry.

Mark Ingram. I'll never forget watching him single handily win the South Carolina game in '09.

Trent and Lacy were playing behind arguably the best line in college football in the last twenty years.

I think Trent's lack of success in the NFL has already caused a few people to forget how dominate he was in college.

Also, TJ Yeldon is set to break all of their records, running behind a much less talented OL.

Shaun Alexander is the best back to ever play at Alabama. Mark Ingram is second. Trent Richardson is third, barely ahead of Bobby Humphrey

I judge a players college career by what they did in college, that may be tough to comprehend for lsu fans.

Eddie Lacy.

Had he not have split as many carries with Yeldon as he ended up doing, the guy would have put up better numbers than Ingram and Richardson.

He ran for 2,400 yards and 30 TDs, averaging just under 7 yards per carry, in his 3 years at Alabama.
