2021 Spring Notes - Running Back

[Atbone95]

The turnovers...all the turnovers.

Getting rocked by a blind-side edge rush is a little different than Adrian just dropping the ball from his hands twice a game.

That was the only gif I could find that worked. He had a pretty hard time holding onto the ball throughout his career as well as the picks.

I've said it before: good teams that couldn't get out of their own damn way, led by a good coach who couldn't get out of his own damn way.

That about sums it up.

With Fidone out I was going to suggest that's H-Back size. But the last jumbo IB/H-Back I can remember was Mike Marrow and I want to be done thinking about that.

 

[Decked]

Well that didn’t seem very positive 

 

[Gorillahawk]

Well that didn’t seem very positive 

I kinda like that he was blunt and it was not a ton of spring ball sunshine pumping. It's refreshing to hear what the coaches are really thinking

 

[B.B. Hemingway]

He looks really tired.

Taylor might lose you a game, but he'd also go win you quite a few as well. Adrian needs to do more of that.

That is fair, but when he had anything close to an NFL receiver he produced pretty well. Taylor got to throw to Niles Paul, Mike McNeil, Kenny Bell, Menelik Holt, Jamal Turner, and had Ameer and Rex/Helu out of the backfield. Adrian has had Morgan, Robinson, and Speilman with Ozigbo out of the backfield.

Don't know about his durability, but he was the most impressive RB in mind during the spring game.

Stepp, Scott, Ervin, Thompkins, Morrison, Yant, Johnson.  That's 7 guys, 6 of which are young guys, in the mix for a few spots..  What's everybody's best guess for how it shakes out this year?
