Quote:Sorry High Score, but my biggest pet peeve in draft evaluation is saying any undersized pass catching RB could be Sproles. It is the laziest and most often butchered of NFL draft comps (even worse than any small quick white WR is the next Welker).


Sproles was a monster workhorse at Kstate. Averaged almost 300 touches a year in college while racking up 5.5k yards. His combination of size and durability is basically unmatched in recent history.

Sorry KYjaggy, but I don't give a [BLEEP] about your pet peeves, and I did not type my post to appeal to you.


As mentioned above, I didn't say he would be Darren Sproles, I simply used Sproles as an example of the type of usage I'd like to see Thomas get. I also compared Thomas' role to that of Dennard Robinson, who was pretty much an unmitigated disaster his rookie year. Did that comparison sit okay with you?


Sorry KYjaggy, but you should work on not getting your Jr. amateur draftnik sensitivities all offended.
