I posted I. He other thread that Carey was better lol

Then we get this


Ka'Deem Carey is really good but I think his running style is too upright and that spin move that he abuses isn't going to work in the NFL like it did in college.

The thing about Mason is that he possesses all those 'little' attributes that you need in the NFL that never get talked about. Runs really low to the ground, runs behind his pads and always falls forward, and really good at squeezing through holes that are barely there in the first place.

He is 2A so i think he is pretty much right there with Carey. i personally think Mason is really good, but Hill is just insane. if he had 300+ carried he would be a 2000K yard rusher. He would be close if he didn't miss the first 2 3/4 games

So his O-Lines he coached blocked for Marshawn Lynch, JJ Aarrington, and Ka'Deem Carey. Damn.

I still like Mason better than Hill and think Mason will have a better overall pro career. Mason is a really cool and likeable person. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders and has to my knowledge never been in trouble like Hill.

Hill missed all of TCU and the 1st quarter of UAB. He scored a touchdown at the start of the 2nd quarter in the UAB game. i swear his suspension length gets longer and longer the further removed we are from it. it was barely over a game in reality

I don't disagree...because of his size. That Ka'Deem Carey dude though...who? I watch sportscenter every day and don't remember ever seeing him.


Kadeem Carey is the best back in the draft. If you don't see him it isn't his fault. Guy ran for over 100 yards every game this year and over 6 yards per carry

Yep Jim Michalczik, to tell you how highly he is thought of Lovie is targeting 2 guys as his OL coach now that Sparano decided to stay in Oakland

Mike Munchak (pipe dream kind of) and Michalczik

Whats crazy is nobody mentions Hill's speed. At 6'2 230+ he has breakaway speed in the open field.

Agreed Genes his upside is ridiculous and his speed is lightning

Again Tre is very good and will be a good NFL back

I'm very interested to see what Hill's 40 is

i think Hill's 40 time will be in the low 4.5s, which for a guy his size, is outstanding

Yeah, I kind of figured his grading had not made it out yet when someone said that Mason was rated first. He has the NFL type RB measurements. Tre will do well, but I get this and expected it.

I'm not sure Carey translates over to the NFL as well as the others do. He's not a big back (~200-205 pounds) but he runs really upright as well. Its not a great combination.

Jeremy Hill is going to remind a lot of teams of LaGarrette Blount and Eddie Lacy. Really talented natural runner with size, quickness, open field speed and he can catch passes as well.

Another back that avg +6 yds/carry (6.3) within conference... Henry Josey.

Think this class of RB entering the draft is deep.

In my opinion, it will be interesting to see how SEC offenses perform next season. There is a lot of offensive firepower going to the next level/graduating.
