Malapropismic Depository Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Who woulda thunk Peyton Barber would have outlasted him in this team's RB room. It's also crazy to think that a year ago about this time, we were expecting a RB including Peterson, Guice, and Love, and more. We were all excited and curious how we would spread the ball around to all those "quality backs". Yet not one of those 3 guys played a snap in 2020 for us.

A talent like that in the 4th round was certainly worth rolling the dice on and waiting a year. Such a shame his career was ruined by one play. I don’t think that’s at all what happened. He formed scar tissue that limited his ROM and he subsequently had to have more procedures done to address this. Google, “Cyclops lesion”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jericho Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 7 hours ago, SkinsFootball said: Well..perhaps this signals a 4th-5th round pick on a running back. Chubba Hubbard brings speed and home run ability. I think at this point its really needed to bring at least one draft pick in. The RB room is pretty bare. I know the coaches like Barber, but he's the walking definition of replacement level. There's one good RB (Gibson), a good 3rd down back (McKissick), the decaying corpse of Lamar Miller, and Barber. And that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterson for sure, was sad to see him go but was never a fan of Guice or Love. Neither had the twitch or explosion I like. On that note neither does Gibson, but at least he shows something.

Commander Wolffe Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 @Jericho Which backs do you like best for us in the draft? I like Etienne, Harris, Javonte Williams, Sermon and Hubbard and yes in that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he could have stayed healthy, and stayed out of trouble, I think he would have been great. Both of those "ifs" turned out to be too big, obviously. But even though he didn't have the twitch you mentioned, he more than made up for it, in other ways. Especially after that first big preseason run, I was excited. The run he got injured on, the first time. Then, I knew ; that his talent was for real, and on an NFL level. But...oh well. He apparently dropped in te draft, for a very good reason. Many people were right, about his maturity issues. Another sad ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a Wolf I am rooting for him to get the M.D. I am so jealous of any person who has the chance to be known as "Dr. Love" for the rest of their life.

Malapropismic Depository Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I suggested he become a doctor first, then cure himself, then return to football. And in that order. Partly because it would be cool to have a player jersey that says Dr Love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
