What has he done to indicate this? Priceless See above.

Is their anything more than speculation going on here? Every news Source I've looked at has no mention from anyone within the team.

meh...I'd still it

Only trying to point out 99% of your OP was hashed out in several threads over several months. I thought the answer was self evident. He's been pretty MIA as he should be for quite a while. He may turn into something but it's going to be a long wait.

The search function is your friend

Yep but every year half the posters will breakdown the schedule and tell you why they will win or lose. It's nonsense.

Any blisters or chafing?

Am I the only one that thinks he's been pretty bad so far this year? At least as a WR & KR.

Damn canuck couldnt even go to the Toronto game!! (I keed)

What team does the OP root for? The thread is just another example of obnoxious piling on. It's convenient that you chose the winning franchise in team sports to root for...

This year

He has a firm grasp of the English language?

Wrong. While I guess it's your "right" to do this, it reflects poorly. What does that make Girardi?

As of right now the comparison is apt. It was a poor choice of words. Many fans are proclaiming to "know" he will be good, or that they can "see the talent".

For every McFadden there are 20 backs who came into the league and tore it up. I'm not saying it won't happen, I just don't have any inclination it will happen. Where a legion of fans just seem to think he in a star in the making. Or we are looking at an extremely small sample size of 10 runs, where a couple of big plays late in games against wore out defenses padded the stats.

I dont hate on the guy, I hate the fact that he was the 9th overall pick, has shown marginal ability but many fans still cling to this hope that he develops into something better.

If he had shown any ability I'd say yes but who the hell knows. ...and the Spiller love continues.

I'm glad one poster has a clue (or wikipedia).

Thanfully, he didn't! ;-) I still don't get all the spiller love on the board. He is what he is, a part time one trick pony with speed but rarely uses it effectively. I still don't think he can read or set up blocks.

I love Fred and wouldnt trade him for any RB but McFadden is just a different breed. Like AP, the combination of size & speed is just uncanny.

Buffalo bounce? (bound??)

As was mentioned, the media you are referring to aren't football analysts or really insightful in any way. Most were nerds who wouldn't know the difference between a power sweep or a weak side counter (neither would I if it want for madden). Expecting them to see something in training camp or preaseason is not a reasonable expectation.

Apparently, he did just that as they didn't get him the ball once today, as I got a zero in fantasy.

Well...given our lack of any o-line players being picked up in the offseason one would think we'd have done nothing.

I thought he played DT in college as well.
