But he spends a lot of time in the whirlpool, Hopefully they had more planed.

I agree shellback. I like the kid but I was not as high on him as some others. He seemed a bit small, fragile and not really and "home-run" type speed or moves.

IMO, he is/was a good complimentary back in a 2 back rotation but not much more. I guess we won't know now. This type of injury is hard to come back from for any player, let alone a RB.

He only gained 625 yards last year. Can we replace that type production? I think so. We have always had good luck finding good RB's.

I think drafting one high next year is now on the table.



#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
