Quote:You couldn't tell how slow/quick he was last Sunday, Phly's defensive line was living in our backfield. You guys are too harsh or just completely clueless, I'm leaning towards the latter. You're acting as if Toby is a big slow white guy, and that's far from the case.

"Now, test results aren’t a perfect indicator of athleticism, and Gerhart is likely not quite the athlete he was in 2010. Still, his measurables compare very favorably to those of <a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.rotoworld.com/player/NFL/1663/Steven-Jackson'>Steven Jackson</a>, and we don’t question Jackson’s athleticism. Gerhart is a well above-average NFL athlete and his profile suggests that his ceiling extends beyond second-stringer".
