After 4 short years in the NFL? He was an absolute beast at Alabama. Even Ozzie cut him.

Overweight, out of shape, bad vision, questionable drive, etc.

Yeah he needs to quit, it's over. Just doesn't have it. What a waste, absolutely no vision or pull away ability. At Bama I think it's clear he had a great line and was just bigger than everyone else.

You see, and all the news outlets are reporting the Cleveland Nighthawks.

He was a fourth round talent that played three years, which is about the average. Lucky for him that the Colts and zBrowns thought he was first round talent.

I dont think you're alone in that. He's the best RB Bama has had under Saban IMO. Dude just couldnt handle growing up from someone regimenting him every step of the way. Saban has a great college program to keep kids focused, but they have to realize once they get to the NFL they arent getting their hand held anymore and need to grow up and do things on their own.

Yes, I would say if you're a four year veteran RB cut by a team before the first preseason game and right after camp starts, you're likely done.

Didn't he have good vision in college? I thought I remember that being one of his strengths

I agree with this. I drafted him in my FF league his rookie year. He wasn't lights out; but he was solid. I traded him that offseason for like a draft pick.

Sure. He looked great in college. The huge talent gap Alabama has can mask a lot of fundamental problems with players though.

He wasn't allowed to bring his "Strength & Conditioning Plan" with him to the NFL.

No. But now that you bring it up; I was wondering if this puts a flaw in the claim that UA is RBU. I mean not ALL of the HTWs coming out of T town.

Many are mediocre, one has been cut and looking at an arena league career.

I guess, Henry will let us know soon enough?
