Viking backup RBs: Roc Thomas vs Mike Boone

Postby hockeyBjj » Sat Aug 18, 2018 12:26 pm

Yeah, not a huge interest comparison here. Last preseason game, Roc Thomas had people asking if he was worth an ad for potential McKinnon role, at least if Cook got hurt again for something

This week 2 game, Mike Boone has been looking like a great runner with the 2nd teams. Good eyes for holes, quick cuts, great speed, and able to lower a shoulder and pick up 3 extra yards at the end of each run

Who do you think will be the Vikings rb3 with potential for work either due to injury or underperformance and opportunity? One could even be trade bait to a needy team to be honest

Also of note, Latavius Murray fumbled twice and didn't get much going during his time, obviously against better competition

I was one of them that posted about Thomas. He looked great first preseason game. They gave Boone more run in the 2nd preseason game and he looked great. Tough decision to make there. Who is currently #3 at this time? Do we know?

I drafted them both in the 4th round over the weekend as I couldn't decide between the two. One more game like that from L Murray, and I think they should roll with Cook, Thomas and Boone.

Undisclosed injury. Boone ended up getting hurt in game.
