Our waiting is over!
Right now he is our #RB and- like James Robinson of the Jags- could be a very productive running back in KK offense.

He either couldn't play special teams or couldn't pass block last year--that has to be the reason he was inactive all season long, if he doesn't fix that he may not make the team this time around.

Um, sorry no.
They were both rookies last year. One got on the field and produced the other never saw the field. That happens for a reason, Eno could not even beat out Foster on the depth chart. If you can't do that, you have no future in the NFL.

I thought our starting RB (or a key RB-Comittee) was Chase Edmonds.

There is a reason presumably why he never saw the field. I just don’t know what it is. Maybe he stinks?

I like Eno as an ASU alum but I'm not counting on anything from him after not playing at all last year. I think he'd be cut if we weren't dangerously thin even fielding a 53 man roster right now.

Things have changed.
How they are similar - they were both rookies last year. Period.

I read somewhere it was the special teams part. I do think Eno will be one of the three RBs during the season. I don't think our bonafide #1 RB is on the team yet. I think Chase way better suited as a 1A type RB, he wears down with too many carries- imo

He never saw the field last season. Special teams or not, he had opportunities to be active w/ injuries to Chase and Kenyan. Maybe the lack of offseason hurt him, but a 7th round pick only has so many chances to prove himself.

It's football season!!
He needs some reps to get that ASU stink off of him

Exactly! Having a preseason will be huge for him to show he can contribute. I compared him to Jags J.Robinson for the sole reason that you don't have to be a lottery pick RB to have success in the NFL.
Another “ we are thrilled and surprised he was still there. We had him projected in the fifth round” Keim guy.
I read that he was having trouble picking up the blitz and blocking

My issue with Eno is he never looked explosive in college. He did at times look elusive but that’s nothing special from a small back. Apparently his blocking is an issue.
I mean he was a 7th rd pick so I don’t really care.

If Benjamin was soooo good, I guess that explains why he played so much last season.
