That wasn't my question.Denard weighs the same as Ellington
Can ya quantify that w/ something for reference? For example who would ya say is hands down the best RB for the team?He's a slow, stiff fumbler. All you need to know.
Well, if you couldn't tell, I don't think he has NFL starting RB talent. Talent-wise, he is the 4th best RB on the roster, maybe even 5th. And that's on a roster that LACKS talent at RB compared to other teams. If he gets a chance to start, it's beacuse Gerhart, Robinson, and Todman are all injured.Can ya quantify that w/ something for reference?

fwiw I didn't really doubt ya, I just found it hard to believe. I mean that I did not like Gerhard from the get-go.Well, if you couldn't tell, I don't think he has NFL starting RB talent.

Plus he fumbles. A LOT. He's a career special teams player IMO.
Don't sell him, short - he's a tremendous slouch.3rd best RB in this draft (behind Hyde and Sankey for those wondering). Really like Storm and I grabbed him everywhere I could. Gerhart is no slouch, so the window may end up being 2 years out but I'm anxious to see this guy in action.
Yeah he did something here that Gerhart can't -- make something outta nothing & quickly change direction.His most impressive play was actually his 6-yard run, where he should have been tackled for a loss but made an outstanding cut behind the LOS and moved up field to gain 6.

Will you be here all week ?
Yeah, I don't want to get too far ahead of myself here, as it's still JAC and Robinson, Gerhart and Todman may very well remain in the mix but he's the only RB I'd be willing to stash from the team. He seems like the most complete back from an athletic and skill set standpoint, although I'm not quite sure about his pass pro. I remember reading that it was a weakness coming into the draft.Yeah he did something here that Gerhart can't -- make something outta nothing & quickly change direction.His most impressive play was actually his 6-yard run, where he should have been tackled for a loss but made an outstanding cut behind the LOS and moved up field to gain 6.
He's worth a bench stash in redraft if you have room. Not sure that they wind up moving away from 4 RBBC but worth a week or two look in case they do. He definitely looked the most impressive vs. the Steelers.
Ya got me. I prefer to look at the fact I'm a Storm believer. I don't think anyone thought Gerhart would be this bad, so the opportunity presented itself sooner than my "2 years"Don't sell him, short - he's a tremendous slouch.3rd best RB in this draft (behind Hyde and Sankey for those wondering).

I completely disagree. I am very high on him (drafted him as high as the #12 pick this year), and as of right now I think he could be had for an early 2nd? I wouldn't take it because he's more than that to me but that's where the market probably is. There are probably a lot of his owners that would gladly cash him in for a 2nd round pick when they either drafted him in the 3rd, later, or was a WW pickup. I for one am holding and hoping, trusting myself that I saw something in the way he played. That's all we can do is trust our own opinions on guys from our research (weather that's tape, or compiling other opinions to form our own). I'll live/die by my own opinion.I'm interested, but not sure how interested. What kind of rookie pick would you think would be fair to offer/what would it take for you to give him up?
It seems like if this guy is going to be any good at all then now is the perfect time to buy. Then again, after this week, this forum could never speak his name ever again.
I have to admit that I trust Matt Waldman's opinion in his RSP quite a bit and he was not very high on him. Obviously he's not perfect with his scouting, but I trust his opinion more than my own.
So yeah, his pass pro. is in question. This will likely be his biggest hurdle to overcome. BTW, I'm reading that Gerhart put in a full practice today. Kind of suspicious if he has a sprained foot. I'll update this when I know more.Hays Carlyon @HaysCarlyon 2m2 minutes ago
Gus said Storm Johnson got more reps in practice today. Looks good running the ball but has to improve in protection. #Jaguars
True, when you have the franchise QB in Bortles back there, Storm won't be fully trusted unless he's good enough at pass pro. No reason he can't impove there, of course.So yeah, his pass pro. is in question. This will likely be his biggest hurdle to overcome. BTW, I'm reading that Gerhart put in a full practice today.
