Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

Hes borderline scrub

 

Hes big as poo but doesnt play like it at all. dude is a soft pussy.

Hubbard is #1 running back. After that it is a battle for #2. Brooks is a mystery, Etienne didn't show much last year.  Dillon IMO probably has just as much of a chance to be #2 as anyone.  I do believe we need to solid RBs.  We saw what happened Rico down the stretch. He wasn't the same back that took over for Hubbard earlier in the season.

To be fair Etienne didn't get a whole lot of opportunities. The miniscule body of work (20 carries), however, did produce 94 yards and a 4.7 average. I guess we can conclude that he's decent depth. Could be running on the bubble though as special teams was a little sketchy.

If you trade Hubbard are you content with Etienne as our most skilled RB?  That IMO not a good idea for a run first team.  Huge gamble.

Since about 80 of you have sent me a PM to chime in on this topic, I will appease the masses:  

I have some weird views on RBs.

Get a RB that can catch and block.  If you want great running, get an OL.

Never, except in rare situations, sign a RB to a second contract.  When they peak at age 27, you rarely get a return on the investment. 

The most important trait for a RB is not speed-it is vision.

No, I don't think Hubbard is going anywhere, just talking to my fellow dawg.

I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

Dillon's not good, so I hope we're not relying on him. He's had opportunities on good offenses and hasn't produced. Is what it is.
