@jad3948 dude he's still just a rookie. Shanahan didn't want to overwork his new rookie that could be the feature back for the skins for the next decade until he was ready for it. When it comes to running backs, Shanahan's the expert. He knows how to groom them
Oh, man. I almost peed myself laughing at the :40 second mark when Roy breaks off the long TD down the sideline against Washington. Announcer says: "Defense has the angle!!!!" :-D No, sir. No it does not.
When he gets in the open field and turns on the afterburners ....do you see anyone catching him?? This what Shannan is good at- finding this kind of gamebreaker. You say Helu he says Goodbye!!!!!!!!
He has speed, but that's not what indicates a RB to be good. So far I have to see his open field moves or his ability to break a tackle. He actually has NO ability to break a tackle. His vision is below average, but not bad. If he doesn't have block, he succumbs defeat. This is just MY PERSONAL OPINION.
Congrats on making the NFL though! I hope he pans out, especially on the 'Skins. I hope he can save them even a LITTLE bit
@RealEffinG212 His rating in Madden NFL 12 is lower than or equal to a 67! EA sports revealed the top 10 rookie HBs and number 10 was the pats rookie back at 67! Wow eff ea
OH SHIT!!! its like we drafted Portis from Nebraska .... so much CP in this kid its not funny ..... Torain time to go back on the bench buddy ..... THE LUUUUUUUUU is HERE!!!!
Coach Shanahan said Royster reminded him of Terrell Davis and Roy Helu reminded him of Clinton Portis. The thing i see in Royster and T.D was that they are both smooth runners with good vision. You see people cant really get a good hit on them and they are not all that fast or quick its because they have good vision and are really natural runners
@ethiohusteljr Helu reminds me of Portis a lot more than Royster reminds me of T.D. Helu gives us the luxury of a back, which we have not had......a HR threat. Portis should've been that guy, but Joe Gibbs misused him. I can watch RBs like Helu all day long. This is going to be a steal of a pick.
@theBlakeman12345 Do you know if Hightower will get the majority of carries this year? Who has gotten the most carries in practice? He has looked great in the preseason.
@MrTommyT26 Do you know if Hightower will get the majority of carries this year? Who has gotten the most carries in practice? He has looked great in the preseason.
I'm surprised this guy isn't rated higher. He may not be the most powerful runner, but he is very explosive through the hole and could be a fantastic change of pace back in the NFL.

@Killerdoctor27 Hightower will probably get most of the carries. If and when Torain is healthy I'd imagine he would split some carries also.
