Most here (those without young kids) won't get this reference, but it conjured up a fully audible LOL from me. Thanks for that glich.

Agree. He looks a lot more refined as a RB than he did as a FR. He has shown a ton of improvement IMO.

Three elite SEC backs: Fournette, Chubb, and Hurd. Henry isn't elite and it's not hard to see. But back to this great CB we landed. I'm a huge fan of this guy. He'll be surely pressing for time when he gets here. :)

I love Catbone and the image of Sadness popped into my head when I read his post I quoted. LOL. That was a very funny movie.

Barnett - Yes, I agree.
Hurd - Sadly, probably not.

In the past 5 NFL Drafts, you know how many RB's have been drafted in the 1st round? 6. Total. And two of those years, none were drafted in the 1st round. If he came out at the same time as Henry, Chubb, Fournette, Dalvin Cook, Samaje Perine, & Royce Freeman, there's no guarantee he goes in the first couple rounds. The value for RB's just isn't as high anymore in the NFL.

Todd Gurley was drafted 10th overall coming off an ACL tear. The problem with RBs in the draft has not been devaueling. The quality of top tier guys hasn't been that good in recent year. Gurley changed that and so will the 2014 class.

The 2014 high school class might be the best RB class ever. As you mentioned it includes the likes of Fournette, Chubb, Cook, Freeman, and Hurd.

I think when the 2017 draft rolls around, you could see 4-5 RBs go in the first round. And Hurd will definitely be one of them.

His offer list is not that impressive, but Butch and his staff see something in him. I like it when we get a few lower ranked kids like him. They come in with a chip on their shoulder, and looking to prove that they belong here. Butch and his staff have had a good run going the Juco route.

A lot of the premier backs in the league are aging as well. 2017 will be an interesting draft

Yeah it went from a lot of options to pick in fantasy to slim pickings at that position. You know it's bad when people were selecting CJ Anderson types in rd 1 of fantasy.

Can you guys sneak a Matt Jones or James Starks off waivers? Or gone already? Starks can run well and catch well, I'm surprised he hasn't went somewhere else. He has had some ball security issues here and there.
I can't wait for L.Bell to do work this weekend, he was my first pick and I've been waiting patiently for him to be back. Made it 1-1 through 2 weeks, so he has to carry the load lol

I got real lucky I have a bunch of depth, but just no clear top guys yet. I snagged Jones, drafted Ameer Abdullah, Gurley and Tevin Coleman with CJ. I'm giving Anderson this last week and then Gurley and Coleman should be back so I'll try to shop him around.

I've got Gurley as well, I'm hoping week 4 he starts to go ham. He can too, he has the talent. I think he is a special type of back if he stays healthy.

Abdullah is nice. PPR leagues be is nice, Bell used to be like that too with the Lions. I don't know what happened with him. I used him the last couple years and he did well when I needed him.

Yea I think Gurley will be fine as long as he is healthy. I just need two of these guys to run with the starting job and then I should be good mixing the others in.

I picked up James starks but decided to start Alfred Morris over him. So far that was an awful decision

Lolllllllllllllllll 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 this post is hilarious. Henry isn't elite? Hurd is but Henry isn't? My goodness please take off the orange glasses my friend. Henry is a bonafide elite rb. Go watch the film and stop being a homer. Henry has many more big time plays again prime competition than Hurd. Henry and Hurd are the same size and I promise you Henry is the more ready NFL prospect.

Trade offensive lines and we will see who is the more elite.

What's with you telling everyone to take off the orange glasses lately? You sure are awfully high on yourself the last few days. Hurd and Henry are similar RBs. If you switch the OLs, Hurd likely posts similar results. But then, what do I know? I'm just an ignorant homer with orange tinted glasses.

Too much testosterone up in here! Hurd chose the Vols, and Henry did not… That is all that matters!

I agree with your Sutton assessment but Hurd is as good as henry. Is he fournette or chubb good? No. Hurd and henry are very similar backs but Hurd would be as good or maybe slightly even better with bamas line.
