Dave definitely has a fetish for these big and linearly fast, but stiff and inefficient power backs.

I guess the plan is to go back to the 2017 model with Fournette and Ivory. Hey it worked....

I like this guy alright, but...

Me too but hearing about him showing hands at his pro day is encouraging

I am positive. You can't see the positivity in my words? For shame. OL can't block forever btw. People get tired too.

Maybe one of the backup swing tackles can be moved inside to compete with Cann. I’d just prefer Linder go back to guard and use Shatley at center.

Hey Dude...Dave is going to lead us to the promised land. Yeah he's made mistakes but who hasn't? Statistically he's already failed as much as he's going to already. Right?

Lol, that is funny.

What, your ignorance?

I feel like Linder is one of the best Centers in the league. No need to move him. Shatley isn't even close.

The first thing I notice is that he's constantly running out of a shotgun formation. Something I think most of us assume we'll see a lot more of this season, in this new Offense with Foles.

Well when two of those guys are injury prone and Blue is average at best, I'd say it is what we needed if that's the style of football they want to run..

For what it's worth, he was one of the "best available" when he was drafted and was certainly on the national draft radar.

And Fournette doesn't catch much - certainly not as much as Yeldon did. But neither Fournette or Armstead are the second coming of Jordan Howard or Alfred Morris.

Everyone should read this: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stat-a...score-2019

Running 4.45 and 220 is awesome

Yeah I'd imagine neither makes the team now, and Cunningham will be our uninspiring change of pace back.

Rock Mic'd up... Lookin like a cross between Leonard Fournette and Lil' Cease

They said on TV that he's an outstanding character guy too.

That was my impression.

Didn't play much until final year, but was productive in that opportunity.

Straight line, power, "angry" runner (his word.)  Love that attitude.  Footwork described as firing pistons.

Maybe a quicker/faster Rashad Jennings with better footwork.

Only concern may be, like Fournette, nagging injuries.

And no, Temple is not a "small" school.

It was clear the Cunningham signing was for his special teams prowess.  Anything beyond that is gravy.

Reminds me a little of MJD.

Maybe he can be our Chris Carson.

That would be sweet if he could be >> Fournette like Carson is too.
