Imo Hunt, Perine, or Foreman will be the RB we draft..


WOW!!

Hunt my 1st choice .. Reminds me of Beast mode.. With the blance after contact inside and outside running open field cuts and versatility in passing and blocking game.... I think he best fits our system and is pro ready day one..

This game shows all the pro ready skillsets

Blitz pick up

Catching out the backfield.. 

YARDS AFTER 1ST CONTACT..

3 down back can be a bell cow back for you day 1 no doubt..

 

Again look at the 2nd effort and versatility..

Semaji Perine make 2nd choice

Oh the power in this dude the thick bottom base from butt thighs to calfs .. Tells me this dude is going to punish defenders.. Low center of gravity and bend tells me defenses will have a hard time tracking him behind our oline and get a solid hit on him.. I comp him to a Jamal Lewis or smaller Bettis..

Not a homerun threat.. More of a batteringram that needs a running start.. Not a guy who can expolde from a dead start.. 

High carry guy most effective when able to punish a defense for 2 qrt. Then in the 3rd and 4th he will have motherfuger making business decision.. Needs to work on blitz pick up..

 

Again this guy lives off of yards after contact..

Need to see him more in the pass game..

I only saw one game but James Conner from Pitt was a beast.  Dude never went down on the first hit and had a great game.  

The game was the upset win over Clemson.  

from his Bio

facing No. 2 Clemson and a defense that was yielding less than 16 points per game, Conner ran roughshod through the Tigers for 132 yards on 20 carries (6.6 avg.)...his 20-yard touchdown run, featuring a highlight-reel stiff arm, pulled Pitt within 42-40 with 5:17 left, setting the stage for the 43-42 upset...Conner also had three catches for 57 yards (19.0 avg.) at Clemson, including a 46-yard catch-and-run TD..

Foreman and Perrine are two slow one dimensional backs that we have to get away from.  We need speed in our back field.

Like Kejone Barner??

4.5 and 4.6 really isn't that slow either..

Versatility is more important than speed..

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
