He's behind an undrafted rookie named Zurlon Tipton on the Colts' depth chart.
I don't know what it is but something ain't right with him

He's a huge bust, plain and simple. It's crazy to me how much he sucks, given how good he was in college.

Never thought he had great vision while at Bama. Holes are not as big in NFL and close faster. Think he just bulls ahead into the hole that is called with no "feel" for finding daylight.

It's inexplicable. He was voted by the players as a top 100 player in the league after his rookie year. I'd still like to see him in a zone blocking scheme.

While I agree that it is puzzling and the likely explanation appears to be care and work ethic. Some people run out of gas. There is such thing as losing a step/spring. Happened to me when I was about 23 or 24.

I don't think he's worn out. I think he just let his talent and physical gifts carry him through most of his career. Now he's hit a point where that's not enough and he hasn't been able to cope. I hope he turns it around but damn.

Idk man. At some point it turns into a body situation. Your body changes. I just think it would do him so good to lose about 15 pounds and get down to at least 225-230 because he looks bigger than jalston fowler right now. That along with not having the same spark as a kid can make all the difference. He has went from a speed and power back to just a power back who can't move the pile because he's playing against a DL of first round draft picks.

I don't think that is actually a real preacher. His Twitter has like 50 followers or something when I looked. Seems like more people would follow their preacher.

Not if he acts like that. 
hopefully you're right though.

Been reading/watching up on Damien Harris.........and HOLY shite. That kid is going to be a game changing type RB. The IT factor, he has it.

Agreed. He just seems like a future Alabama star.

He has some absolutely NASTY cuts. also dat acceleration is what I would call "very nice" and "Wow that guy has a nice burst" and "Wow this guy speeds up very quickly". k done

He has better vision now than any back we have on our roster imo
Posted on 1/11/15 at 6:45 pm to alabamabuckeye
Yeahhhhhhh he'll see playing time this year. I wish he was an EE.

hmm......i tend to disagree with this statement. tyren jones seems to have good vision. but i just guess the staff prefers the higher star value than the guy that actually follows his blockers to the hole.

With Arkansas OC leaving for Pitt, it will have a major impact on KJ Hill's recruitment according to his father.

How do we have room for him? Do y'all think he is one of those can't miss guys that you make room for?
Posted on 1/11/15 at 8:27 pm to alabamabuckeye
I'd say that is probably accurate, or close to it. Tyren has great vision too.

I thought they wanted 1 more receiver anyway.
