RB Rumor

I'm sure if the Cardinals drafted him his jersey sales would eclipse MHJ's...

I would buy at least one Skattebo jersey if we got him.

Dumb, if he played for any other college we wouldn't give two craps about the dude.

I get the thought but honestly if you were designing a RB to fit the offense the Cards run, it's him. He's smaller than Conner and not as fast as Benson but the way he runs, violently between the tackles, the vision and cutbacks etc, it's literally perfect for our run offense.

My main issues on him as I've said before, he creates so much contact I fear his career will be shortened, and the refusal to go down in crowds concerns me about fumbling in the NFL

Yeah Clyde Duncan was the one that came to mind. And the second round pick of UCLA kicker Joh n Lee a couple years later was also baffling, as was Pisczarkwitz.

He also famously took Coryell and Terry Metcalf to lunch after we drafted Terry and said "so how do you feel about playing CB" to Terry. Before a stunned Terry could say a word Coryell said oh no, he's our new RB. Coryell had coached against Metcalf in college
