I remember Donald Brown. How is he doing in NFL?
When two players collide regardless of who "wins" it is punishment to the body. Any reputable sources giving evals on your guy?
No it is not all you can ask. Compare a RB like Earl Campbell that deliberately ran over defenders to Peyton who often was critized for running out of bounds. A smaller back can be a great back for many years but the avg is 4 or less. We have a fast strong back in Slaton.
same school as Jerious Norwood (mentor). power back in true sense of word like Michael Turner also playing for Atlanta Falcons w/Norwood. If Toby Gerhart is RB otpion 2a then Dixon is RB option 2b. I still want defensive playmakers 1st day or OL help, he should go in 2nd but excellent value in 3rd.
Exactly my eval Beerlover. Link for those interestedsame school as Jerious Norwood (mentor). power back in true sense of word like Michael Turner also playing for Atlanta Falcons w/Norwood.

Wolf that is very helpful. Have you watched Dixon? If so, give your observations. This is part of the fun of watching those elig for draft and compare to ur needs. I have only seen Gerhart once that I can recall and I did not see what you did but will concentrate if I see him again.
There was a lot of talk about how slow everyone ran at last year's combine. I wonder if that will be an issue in days leading up to the event?
Finally got a chance to see him play & what a game he had. It would not upset me in the least if the Texans drafted him with their 1st rd. pick. He did have one fumble but it was punched out on a great play, otherwise he has no ball security issues at all covers up ball with both arms in traffic & it takes two or three defenders to bring him down. Also has great vision, good burst into the hole, didn't see his long speed but I'll take his average yds per carry any day. Quote this: Toby could have the same impact offensively as Cushing has defensively for the Texans. He fits a need, has the talent for the next level & in this offense would be un-stoppable.
I think a back like Gerhart or Dwyer would really excel with out team. They don't need much of a crack and can power through. Both are down hill runners and tough to bring down. Both will be 21 at beginning of season and offer several years of quality RB barring injury. This type would also help Slaton and Moats. AJ and JJ out wide one side with Slaton out to the other with Moats and Dwyer or Gerhart in backfield.

Correct. My concern is all the extra hits he gets when he does not have the ball. He is big and strong but that is a pounding. He will need blocking skills if he is drafted by Houston.
