Even if the good lord gives you the best line ever, you still have to use it.

starrymessenger Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 He'll be as good as his O-line. You can see the difference between his Oklahoma tape and where his O-line is more effective against lesser competition. Only thing that bothers me is the tread on his tires and the fact that he's useless in the passing game. Re tread maybe he will take after Frank Gore. Re receiving out of the backfield we've got Yeldon. This is going to be situational backfield by committee. I think maybe Daboll makes good use of him. Measurables aren't there but the kid looks like a gamer and a football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real production matters more than thoughts about what Sayers could have done with a longer career. Emmitt was awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have the fast burst around the edge that you need in the NFL. Players like Freddy are extremely rare, he didn't have the speed either, but he was a surgeon up the middle and in between the lineman. Devin only had great numbers because he was playing against the likes of Bethune freaking Cookman. gee i thought he looked great... 2 minutes ago, Nelius said: There was a best RB of all-time thread on here not too long ago, and clearly I'm in the minority, but the all-time leader in both rushing TD's and rushing yards is firmly in the best of all time conversation for me.

If this kid is killin it, do we hold the $9M back for kicks? Again not wanting to be rumor guy, but opening up $9M could be Ziggy money??

I like Singletary, and the fact that the Pats were thinking RB in the 3rd as well makes it even more interesting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has more value to us than the 6th rounder we would get in a trade. Now if all the other guys pan out and a team has an injury that moves that up to a 3rd or fourth then maybe.

SCBills Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) If you google Devin Singletary, every single comp is to LeSean McCoy (with some Frank Gore). Pretty interesting that he’s going to be in the room with both of them this year, most likely. Pick is growing on me. Don’t love that he doesn’t have “breakaway” speed, but how many backs really do?.. Regardless, his next level twitch more than makes up for it.
