Comfortable with running backs?

I definitely like Wegher's potential and am not too concerned with fractions of seconds...      But I've only seen 40 times from 4.4 - 4.6....

Where have you seen he has legit 4.3 speed?   I'd say he runs around a 4.5...

I screwed up with the 4.3 thing (Iowa State's Jarvis West's), but he ran a 4.40 at his pro day showing according to David Newton.

My bad. 

He's still not slow though (even at 4.5).

4.6 is getting kinda slow there. I haven't seen that one.

The problem is that we only have one big name running back at the moment, Stewart, and over the years going back to John Fox, we're (as a fanbase) used to having two of those at a time. Most teams, if they are lucky, have one and then a group of no names afterwards. That's where we are right now. That's neither bad, nor good. It's really just the norm.

And, if you take a pure moneyball approach, you can only get so much usage out of a running back in today's game. We do great by it, but on most winning teams, the RB position is a bit of an afterthought, and you can just plug someone in and proceed.

The game is a changing and RBs are falling in value right now, with the exception of one or two game changing talents. And those guys cost so much that their teams start looking one dimensional.

How could you not be comfortable with a guy who has this kind of fashion sense?

Yes.

Not comfortable in the least bit.
