I mean the power, the agility, and the speed of a guy that size is not human. He got up without even gasping for a breath after consecutive plays and just handing the ball off like he was playing against kids.
I would say it is too soon, though I like what I've seen of him thus far. He seems like he would be a viable candidate for that down the road, but not yet.
I do think he will be the best player on the team very soon
I know it's foolish and I'm drinking the kool-aid but that 4th Down run reminded me of Fred Taylor.
While he might not have Fred's speed, he certainly has his strength and vision

Not while Lord Ramsey still reigns.

Calais Campbell says hi too.
I always thought that the face of the franchise was a cat with a blue tongue, but that's just me....

Lets not start with this Lord crap.. You guys killed that when you gave that title to Byron..

You've obviously never seen me make a determined beer run.

It's a game of thrones reference, that's all.

Awe man, that guy was sick yo. I mean.... Sick. And poor Sansa had to step away from Bren cause she knew he saw it all.
First we have to define what the heck we mean by "face of the franchise." What is that?
I'm a little shocked nobody has started a nickname thread for him. That's usually something that happens a few minutes after a player leaves the podium at the draft.

Let's pump the brakes on "face of the franchise" talk for a bit and allow him to develop. We're one preseason game and a handful of touches into this thing.

Now you've done it. I expect the bedwetters to start threads already saying to cut him.

Diversity is what this board is about.  Nicknames and "CUT HIM!" threads can coexist here, right?

I agree; too soon. But those four runs on that second drive had shades of MJD in them. Now we just need to see him break one long.
3.4 ypc nope, 4.5 ypc yes

It's WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too soon!
