Am I the only one that thinks Najee will be in the 2 deep by midseason? He had a 3000 yd season on a bum knee and ranked as overall #1 by scout and with great reason.
I will admit that I haven't watched much film on Najee, but if his hype is warranted, I could see him getting RB2 carries at some point, especially if there are any injuries.
It certainly will be interesting. We have three backs returning with 6.5 ypc or more(one with 7.2 ypc), and all three had at least 85 carries. Not to mention our QB who is an incredible runner himself. Unreal production. It's kind of insane.

Our RB situation is CRAZY right now.
I think it helps to group guys into styles.
Bo is a unique back on our roster. Nobody can do what he does, and when healthy he's by far our best option.
You have Harris, Jacobs, and Emmons all with similar body-types, speed, agility, and vision. All three of these dudes can be deadly options with Emmons and Jacobs being more explosive and better athletes, and Harris having better vision.
Najee Harris. In terms of body type, imo he has the highest ceiling of all our backs, and the best potential to be an every-down injury-free type of back. He's got it all, and I think he'll quickly show that he can be a Heisman winner somewhere down the line.
KEY POINT: Under Burns, our backs have always made MAJOR strides from year 1 to year 2. idk how that will shake out on the depth chart, but from a purely athletic standpoint, Harris is in 5th place.
