I'm not an expert in evaluating running backs. But what are the concerned with the fact he never trucked anyone?Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 11:09 pmYou know what's funny is that while I was watching Barkley I thought he reminded me of Bush. However I went back and watched some old Bush footage ( ) and concluded they're not as similar as I thought. Also, they might put up similar combine numbers but Barkley will be doing it at 20+ lbs heavier than Bush.nathanq42 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 10:52 pmJust watched a 10 minute long highlight tape, saw him lower the shoulder and bounce off a defender but no truck stick level stuff, but since it's a highlight tape there werent any ugly short yardage power plays. I know Barkley is 20 lbs. heavier, but kind of reminds me of Reggie Bush, supreme athlete has vision, moves, and can catch, but just wasnt powerful/tough enough to transition all of that to the NFL where these super athletes get caught up to. Not the Bush had a bad career but he sure as heck didn't live up to his expectations.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Fri Feb 16, 2018 8:37 pm Just got done watching Barkley's tape from this year and now I'm a little curious, is there a clip of him trucking a defender anywhere? I don't recall him doing it even once in the 9 games I watched.
Thanks for the explanation!
