Not a huge fan of Stepfan Taylor. I don't think he has NFL speed.

 

[coltonjg98]

packers got 2 of top 4 RBs in draft IMO

I think he does, he's a good all around back. A lot of the RB's this year didn't have that NFL speed.

They got two good backs in terms of power running but not break away speed, Lacy maybe has a little but will get chased down

 

[caseycomb]

You think were gonna get that linebacker?

 

[blstoker]

Wow, another RB

 

[coltonjg98]

?????? another RB ???????

 

[caseycomb]

whoa another RB

 

[coltonjg98]

over poyer, thomas.... all way better choices IMO. #trustinJS

$50 bucks says he's the 3rd string runningback.

That's a good bet, but it may take until next year to unseat RT. I would revisit this bet at this time next year.

Fair enough?

 

[coltonjg98]

im not gonna go off because i imagine theres a method to their madness, but what is it? ST maybe?

 

[nk12thman]

Maybe we're going to start running the single wing offense.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Another runningback? Spencer Ware...?

Not trying to be "negative" (you know who you are)

But here are his stats at LSU:
2012: 367 yards 3.9 YPC
2011: 707 yards 4.0 YPC
2010: 175 yards 7.3 YPC

Career long run of 35 yards. 4.5 40. Really confused by this one.

But hey! JS and PS couldn't do anything wrong, right?

I am not sure if they did, but they sure need it.

Flashes potential as a pass catcher. Shows solid focus as a pass catcher. Reliable underneath pass catcher. Lacks suddenness as a route runner and is not a homerun threat after the catch. LSU seems to trust him most in pass pro. Shows adequate awareness and good initial pop to stop blitzer in tracks. Has size and strength to be an effective pass pro RB in NFL. But needs to consistently get in better initial position to sustain.
Prototypical height and a well-packed frame. Has shorter-than-average arms (30 1/8') but bigger hands (9 5/8'). Top-end speed on tape appears to be well below average.
Runs with a purpose. Plays the game with passion and energy. Drives legs at end of runs. Type of back that wears a defense down as game progresses (if he gets enough carries). Very good ball security. Sixth-best career fumble percentage (.90%) of our top 30 running back prospects in 2013

highlights of espn's analysis of him.

 

[caseycomb]

Good balance, yards after contact/ doesn't shy away from it...not sure where these guys fit in. Theyre saying he was a fullback

 

[seahawksfan234]

To me Ware sounds like the sort of guy who would typically go undrafted.

 

[caseycomb]

I'm glad in a way that we finally have an offensive draft...it's been awhile
