He's had a messed up shoulder all season as well. Imagine if he was healthy and being employed as a receiver out of the backfield? He's basically the offense right now. He's gonna be great next year, assuming Chicago supports Trubisky by getting him someone to throw to.Space Cowboy wrote: ↑Sun Dec 10, 2017 9:02 pmHoward crossed 1,000 today. What an awesome talent.

Just wanted to mention him because he and Jordan Howard looked woefully unspectacular to me on their college tape but are proving to be pretty good NFL assets and they both belong to the same group. Thought it was interesting and it's kind of an oversight in my tape-watching process it seems. Speaking of Jordan Howard, he's on pace for his 2nd 1,000 yard season this year so that will be interesting to watch going forward.

Re: 2017 Running Back Report
lol yeah, he drops the ball a lot... and I don't think it's b/c of his shoulder.
Don't watch much college ball but from what I've seen I guess I'm with everyone else in that he looks pretty good.
Re: 2017 Running Back Report
I hope theres some gems in the 2018 RB report. Ive got Barkley with the 1.01, but also have 2.01 and 2.04 that I hope to spend on guys that leaguemates might sleep on (Foreman from 2017).
Re: 2017 Running Back Report
Can't wait to see your 2018 report. I have the 1.6 and could use an RB. Early is easy, Barkely/Guicce/Chubb but then at 6 who you take of who's available really makes or breaks. I'm hearing some love for Love lately

I mean, kudos for avoiding him somehow, but he had decent size, great speed, great rushing production, and elite receiving numbers...

He caught 88 balls for over 1000 yards and 11 TDs during his 2 years as a starter. That's definitely elite for college. A good 3-down back often only catches 20-25 passes in a season in college.
And then for speed, he ran 4.49. That's pretty rock solid for 214 lbs. Not elite speed, but very nice speed.

Re: 2017 Running Back Report
Whatever the case may be, McNichols absolutely bombed his way out of potential relevance by getting cut as a rookie. He didn't understand an ounce of pass protection and couldn't learn a playbook.
Even if he was rated higher (and he was by RotoViz's RB Formula), numbers can't hold a player up who just doesn't get it.

Re: 2017 Running Back Report
How do we reconcile the difference between a player who catches more balls in a pass-happy offense and a player who catches less balls in a run-centric offense? What if I told you that in his final collegiate season, Leonard Fournette (a guy whose receiving skills were heavily questioned during the draft process) actually had a higher College Target Share (extrapolated due to injury) than McNichols? How do we reconcile the difference between a person who runs a 4.49 at 214 lbs and a person who runs the same time at 240 lbs. Do we just check down 4.49 for both players and call it a day? I'm not mentioning these things in order to prove you're wrong per say, the point is there's more than one way to think about certain numbers other than simply as raw counting stats.lukkynumber13 wrote: ↑Sun May 13, 2018 11:37 amHe ran for over 3000 yards and 43 TDs during his 2 years starting.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Sun May 13, 2018 9:49 amMe thinks we don't share the same definitions of great and elite.lukkynumber13 wrote: ↑Sat May 12, 2018 12:44 am Just looking back a year, how did Jeremy McNichols not make his way onto your report, DD?

As for his tape, unfortunately I don't have anything written down for him. I do remember watching a few games and I believe he was trying to bounce a lot of stuff outside/running backwards but that could be wrong as my memory on him is fading at this point.
