Coach Tuesday Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2555699 Whatever. He is not impressive (although Frank Gore is). Man the Jets are gonna suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Mike Shanahan called Barlow the best RB of the 2001 draft class...before the draft obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Kevin Barlow is a good stop gap guy, good when hes sharing carries with someone but hes not a good starting rb. When hes been the main guy he's been fairly pedestrian, when he shares carries he can be effective. Considering the other option for the jets of trading for TJ Duckett, Barlow was by far a better move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man the Jets are gonna suck. 747885[/snapback] Barlow is going from one crap team to another...he could be the next Walter Payton, but nobody will ever know... I like Gore a lot...I think he is one of those guys, barring more injuries, can transcend a bad offensive line...he is my early round fanatasy sleeper...I drafted him last season...he came on pretty strong toward the end of the season...he is a bull.

JimBob2232 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Big Fantasy Trade actually. Increases both Gore and Barlows value. Gore more though. Interesting. Lets see if Barlow passes his physical! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share Posted August 21, 2006 What's the over/under for Gore shredding his knee again? 747970[/snapback] Probably about the same as McGahee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Probably about the same as McGahee. The difference is that McGahee needed a helmet to his knee to actually shred it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Have followed the 49ers relatively closely over the past 4 years. The guy was great sharing the ball with Hearst. He has great power and speed. Early on he was known as a major fumbler, but sort of shook that reputation with the success he shared with Hearst. Got the job full time and became pedestrian. Seemed to run slower and with less power. Of course this may have been that the 49ers turned to crap those years and several of there old o-line stalwarts left to free agency - Stone and Gragg. They've had major O-line problems the past 3 years. He could have a big year with a change of scenery and better blocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExWNYer Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Kevin Barlow is a good stop gap guy747893[/snapback] He could also be a good stop at the 'GAP' guy when the pimple-faced Mangini needs some new threads. NFL Radio on Sirius is like a local NYC channel.... Jets 24x7! 747974[/snapback] Not entirely true...they also give ample air time to NJ's other team due to douchebag Giants shill Adam Schein.

JimBob2232 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 The UCLA Hicks? He's still in the league? 748003[/snapback] Not sure who you are refering to, but im talking about Maurice Hicks. Gore hasnt proved he can stay healthy, and Hicks has shown flashes of brilliance in the past. Its clearly Gores job right now, but if he goes down, the potential exists for hicks to take the job and make it his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
