He gets whats there. He's not gonna make a guy miss or jump cut back into a hole.
CEH can and does when he's healthy. |

Yeah Clyde can be the main back with Darrell there to spell him and Damien can be the 3rd down back. And Thompson the blow out garbage time back. Think Sherman is done after this season so we can carry 4 backs on the active roster.

I'd get rid of Thompson and keep Sherman. He's too important on all the special teams etc.

No, he's not.
He ran a 4.72 and a 4.73 at The Combine and until yesterday, he's looked far slower than that on the field. He looked more comfortable with his assignments against the Browns but he is not the type of running back that can take nothing and turn it into something. His scouting report matches up perfectly with what he's shown the past 2 seasons: Strengths Built like a bruiser and runs with good physicality Sturdy base absorbs hits and maintains balance Doesn't get cute Makes decisions early and lives with them Keeps pads square to line of scrimmage and slides from gap to gap without losing momentum when searching for the best running lane Has good lateral jump cut to elude initial tackle attempts at the line of scrimmage Runs under his pads with good forward lean near the goal line Has size to be utilized as a short yardage option Very comfortable handling swing passes and check downs and showed an ability to extend drives out of the backfield Highly respected teammate and named a team MVP this season. Weaknesses: Doesn't feel running lanes developing, needs to see it Burst through line of scrimmage is below average Doesn't have the feet and instincts to sting moves together Doesn't search for late cuts and may not be able to make them anyway Doesn't generate as many yards after contacts as teams might like Won't get many unexpected yards Slow to gather and cut downhill when asked to run an outside track Needs downhill play calls Top heavy running style limits ability to make sharp backside cuts ------------ His weaknesses are why he went undrafted. https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2018...rrel-williams/ https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_ro...113a66b23.html |

He played well. Had some good blocking for a change. CEH would have had a big day.

Yeah I guess. I think I'm still holding out hope for Thompson. I think he can be good but apparently he can't really pick up the playbook and we've seen that he has no idea what to do when it comes to pass blocking and knowing hot routes when the defense blitzes.

He reminds me of Mike Anderson.
That dude was nothing special but he had good size/speed, just a little bit of wiggle and was a smart, good all around player.

Hmmm, really? The people I remember being excited about it were excited because it was a very low risk move and all upside.... I don't remember anyone saying he'd be amazing, but I could be misremembering.
