He's shiftier in the open field and through the hole. While I agree that the Alabama o-line opens up some big holes, that really has nothing to do with the o-line.Is it really that HE is shiftier (like in space and open field) or is it appearing that way because that mammoth O-line opens up more space than the Georgia line does (or possibly that we see Yeldon in the passing game more)?Agreed. Yeldon is shiftier. I think that brings a bit more to the table as far as their NFL prospects.I don't want to take anything away from Gurley - he's a beast and runs with a ton of power like AP. He's got Pro Bowl written all over him too. Yeldon isn't as powerful but he's better at making people miss. It's a matter of taste and I get why people prefer Gurley, but Yeldon is the total package in my eyes.I think you have Yeldon confused with Gurley. Peterson was a man among boys. I don't see that with Yeldon as I do with Gurley.I'll come right out and say it - Yeldon is the most impressive RB prospect I've seen since AP.
I'm not trying to pick a nit. I really don't know. When I watch Yeldon and Gurley and Marshall and some of these other freshmen RBs, It is hard for me to make a comparison because it seems like the Alabama O-line just made things easier.
Was Richardson knocked for the dominance of the guys up front?
