It's funny, cause UF's star got cut from the same team that had a LSU rb rush for over a 1000 yards last season.

last year his # of carries exploded though. 114 of his 144 career rushes were last year. He's got 12 this year

How has McCluster been doing in KC?



He did well until he got hurt, and now they haven't really been using him in the right spot. Very similar to how nutt used him before the light went off and he figured out how dangerous he was in space.

But I'd say Deuce and BJGE have done well from ole miss.

I thought you were approaching VerlanderBEAST status, but I think that would be an insult to him.

You only have to go back to 2012.

Deuce McAllister's career was cut short by knee injuries, but he still had a good career with the Saints.

McFadden and Peyton Hillis have both recently had 1,000 yard seasons so we're good.

Also, Knile Davis is primed to take over for Jamaal Charles at KC when he is finally done.

I'll think he'll blow it up. Dude was under-utilized big time.

how so?

On an even playing field, behind NFL lines, Ben Tate is a stud and Mark Ingram is an abortion

The RB position is not what it used to be. The NFL is switching to the spread/HUNH, and use more hybrid backs.
