My comparison of Arrington to Tiki Barber had mainly to do with the fact that Barber was considered by many to be too small to be an everydown back and (being small but shifty & quick) more suitable in a 3rd down role (The hope was that Ron Dayne would become the Giants' main ball carrier and provide a smashmouth presence). But Barber wound up being the Giants' main man - and a pretty good one at that.

I'd be the first to say that Tiki isn't the end-all of RB's (He'll run into streaks of putting the ball on the ground too much and if I recall, he sometimes got worn down and suffered nagging injuries) , but - as others have pointed out - he was pretty productive as the Giant's chief ballcarrier (often more productive, in fact, than our entire running attack).

Why do people keep saying rookies RB's don't do great? That's the easiest position to make the transition from college to NFL. While they do need to learn pass protection and other details, as far as just stats are concerned RBs often look great as rookies.

So true.

It is actually much harder to find a top RB who didn't have a very good rookie year than one who didn't.

Bettis,James,Tomlinson,Dillon,CMartin,JLewis,McGahee,Faulk and Portis all had big rookie years.

Those that didn't were usually playing behind someone like Alexander/Watters in Seattle,Davis/Terry Allen in Wash. and McAllister/RWilliams in NO, or got messed up by wearing a wedding gown for a magazine cover pic.

Cheesy, those weren't doves. They were pigeons. Shane stole em from Mike Tyson.
