YoloinOhio Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 @mikerodak Something to look for this fall: Mike Tolbert running the ball. The Bills' 250-pounder has taken a heavy dose of carries this spring, rumbling down the field. Without a clear-cut No. 2 running back behind LeSean McCoy, it's possible Tolbert fills the void https://t.co/W6iTCMFpg7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 i don't know who to blame for letting gillislee walk and not concerned with that but i know having an adequate contingency plan is always important  tolbert is not terrible but he is not a #2 back.

DJB Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Well hopefully we can add a guy once some cuts start happening. Tolbert is not a number 2 and lots of questions with everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBonhamRocks Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I dunno, no reason why Tolbert and Williams cannot be HB2A and HB2B respectively. Tolbert as change of pace/short yardage/goal line and Williams to spell McCoy. I am excited to see what Tolbert can contribute. Somewhat because I am skeptic based off Williams' first year.

Captain Murica Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) This is Rodak click bait at its finest Rodak reminds of the guy that would still live at home with mom and dad, wear footy pajamas, and get picked on by the neighborhood kids at the age of 40. Â Also, his LinkedIn profile pic reminds me of a creepy ventriloquist dummy. I wonder what Mike Alstott ran, not that it matters. That was an interesting career. Not great, but interesting.... Mike Alstott ran a 4.74, at 248 lbs but the Buccs had him beef up to 262 lbs at one point. Also was a 6-time pro-bowler, 3-time first team all-pro, and in the Bucs Ring of Honor, very solid career.

YoloinOhio Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) I think Jwill would need to fumble away the job. He's clearly the better option to replace Mike. Unfortunately chris brown said he had ball security issues early on in OTAs. Â Btw chris Brown also hates Andre Holmes. McD loves him. Didn't cb get the memo?

KellyToughII Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Great. Boobie Dixon 2.0. Other than Boobie didn't average 3.8 yards per carry in his career, nor make the probowl, nor rush for 33 TD's. I mean other than that, maybe so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cba fan Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Dimarco: 4.92 Tolbert: 4.75 Between the two of them they can't even run downhill. Boobie was decent (on ST) before he hurt his knee .

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 (edited) I think the guy gets a bad wrap as a big guy. Blount is a big rumbler and he's been a very effective player over the last couple of seasons. Tolbert also has catching ability. Â If he was our feature back i'd be worried, but as a backup RB/FB I think he's probably fine. Â Tolbert has 2400 yards, 45 total TDs, and another 1700 yards receiving.

Maybe he'll be more effective here, he has had some great days in the past, but it's been quite a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
