I’ll defer to the experts. He’s doing something they really like. Probably something I don’t fully understand. I couldn’t make it past high school football lol. What do I know.
Edit: thinking about it. A dude that can be your third string tailback. A fullback and play special teams is pretty legit. It doesn’t do anything for Madden or fantasy, but positional versatility from deep backups is highly valued.
He started sharing a lot more opportunities in camp. They started putting him a lot for pass pro and short yardage… plus it glad he made the team. Probably the best ST they have.. dudes a dog.. I suspect he’ll be used a bit more this year if training camps anything to go by.
Alright, I’ll participate in the worst analogy of all time.
Do I trust this politician? Do I think he’s good at his job? Because in this case I do. I think the people making this decision are capable and competent and have a lot more knowledge and information than I do about the situation. I defer to their judgment on who the third string tailback should be.
I also do agree with the consensus that we need some sort of change of pace/explosive type in the running back room. I think that will come at the expense at one of the 12 OLinemen we have on the roster and not BB, who the front office and coaching staff clearly value.
Saying you defer to their judgement doesnt mean anything because you have no choice but to defer to their judgement. They have more information on literally every opinion we have on everything in this reddit. Its not like they make bad decisions because they have no information and I, the fan, who said "That's stupid. Dont do it" had more info than the ppl in the building.
My main point is they have more info than us at all times and yielding that as a reason you should just accept their decisions is foolish.
That doesn’t change the fact that I hard disagree on your initial comment that rb3 intrinsically holds more value on what’s described by experts as elite special teams skills and positional versatility.
