That's a whopping 13.5 average per year that puts him in the "elite" category #titans

Looks like he finally got his money.

...and 10% of it will go to the team due to holdout fines.:D

I bet the Vikings are pissed.

13.4 per year for a RB? SMDH!

Till he ruptures his hammy in week 1 because he hasn't done anything in the preseason.

That money is unbelievable for a running back. I would never pay a running back that kind of money, I don't care what kind of fancy nickname he has.

And people think WE over-payed for our RB? Ridiculous. Honestly, 2008, good year, but nothing crazy. 2009, great year (2,000 yards. Enough said). 2010, average (4.3 ypc average). He has had 674 carries in the past 2 seasons. He's not going to hold up, especially with the lack of work due to the lock-out.

Deangelo, when healthy and starting all 16 games, is averaging at worst, 5.0 yards per carry. That is better than Johnson, period. Also, he does it on less carries. If CJ isn't busting the big one, he's an average running back. This is making me want to go the Titans game in November even more, just to see CJ get beat up on by Beason and Co.

As an ECU fan myself, it's good to see 2 Pirates doing well in the NFL (Garrard & Johnson)

ummmm....it is easier to have a higher YPC when you aren't share the load and are not an every down runner.

Sorry but Deangelo is not in Chris Johnson's class.

The point is, CJ touches the ball more than any back in the league. He SHOULD have the most yards since 2008. But if he's not ripping the big runs, he's average at best. I remember watching a game where he had a 75 yard TD run. Finished the game with damn near 40 carries and 175 yards (or something near that) with 2 TDs. Not that impressive.

He will fall apart. He won't last through his contract. Just too many carries for such a small back.

To say Deangelo isn't in CJ's class...lol :rolleyes:

EDIT: Found it. Last season, 27 carries, 142 yards, 2 TD, 76 yard long. Take away that 76 yarder and he did shitty. Which proves he is ONLY a big play threat (like a Devin Hester). He got over-payed for what he is.

Also, last season, 32 carries, 125 yards, 3.9 YPC, 2 TDs, 42 yard long. Not impressive. Sorry.
