I agree about DeAngelo... But we disagree about Arian Foster, and that's okay. We're both type A personalities and likely won't change our minds even if presented with overwhelming stats! That's what makes us E-Friends! Lol

Foster is pretty sick...2 back to back seasons with at least 1800+ total yards and double digit scores. I think that holds some weight in this guys rankings.

Line up RBs and just have them run....Williams is tough to beat to date. Which most do overlook outside the Carolinas.

What does that have to do with anything?

He won't be anywhere close to protein difficient or any other horribly ignorant crap like that.

Who said anything about him being protein deficient? Nuts have all kinds of protein in them... Maybe you jumped the gun, and made an assumption and now maybe you look ignorant?

It holds serious weight that backs up your opinion... But again... If Williams or Stewart for that matter were FEATURED backs like he is... And weren't splitting carries... I believe that either could surpass those numbers easily... Hell, they both did in the same year!!!

Well Ben Tate almost had 1000 yards last year and Foster put his production again...so last year wasn't just Foster getting all the touches

Putting up 2200+ total yards in season isn't something lots of RBs have pulled off even going back to the feature back era.. Durability + talent factor in. That is a lot of production. Foster is legit at this stage

Again not arguin his production.... But you're obviously wearing blinders in this disagreement that we're currently having.

Foster did miss 3 games last season which gave Tate 300 of those 942 in his absence. Subtract those and he's down to 642 (avg for the new two back system)

As I said before, but this time I'll ask you directly since you keep ignoring my comments...

Do you really NOT think that if DeAngelo or J-Stew were FEATURED backs as Foster is... That they couldn't put up similar if not even better #'s???? There, now maybe I'll get a direct answer from you.

It's the common mistake, but how would vastly improving his overall health and wellness hurt his durability?

Please prove to me in a clinical study how becoming a Vegan "vastly improves his health and wellness" as opposed to someone who eats a normal regular diet

speaking of jumping the gun, what exactly about becoming a vegan would reduce his effectiveness?

Just a hunch... He's playing a physical sport at the highest of levels... Without being a carnivore, I just don't see the same hunger in him as before... Pun intended

Plus I don't trust people that don't eat meat. Something that my Grandpa told me a long time ago, and it has stuck over the years.

I will NOT draft him in my fantasy this year, that's for sure.

Edit: I don't have a problem with Vegans... It's your life and your choice...

Depends.

In a Fox offense? I think both could reach reach about 1800-1900 yards rushing as a feature RB in their prime.

In this offense? On this team? Think it gets more fuzzy...I think Stewart has the chance for more total yards and I think total yards is what you would have to look at. 2200+ is a lot...

TCF quit assing up this thread please and thanks

i'm perfectly content with a number two ranking. cam is not up for consideration because he is not a running back, and given williams has ended the last two seasons on IR i'd say our ranking is perfectly fair, maybe even generous.

that #30 safety rating hurts. i really hope nakamura can come in and contribute immediately.

to even ask that question proves that you have not even bothered to search for your own answers. There are numerous studies that could fill a thread. Do you seriously believe that a diet of baconators and philly cheese steaks prepares athletes better??

http://www.ajcn.org/content/89/5/1627S.full

so much more. google "China Study", "Dr. Esselstyne", and many more. netflix "forks over knives".... Vegan diets should be supplemented with vitamins and protein should be monitored or consider egg whites or very limited animal protein sources if truly worried about protein.

not trying to derail thread. just a lot of info out there you could use.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By frankw · Posted

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
