If you took Frank Gore, subtracted about 50% of his athleticism, and he was about 10-15 pounds less lean but more pudgy, you’d get Mike Weber.

Mike Weber is going to be a player in the league man

Michael Jordan too

Jordan is going to be a multiple time all pro once he gets back to playing guard. If they make him stay at center he'll be an average player, but if he gets back to guard I promise if healthy he'll make multiple all pros.

I think he will be comparable to CJ Anderson. Meh...he’s ok.

I like Jordan.

Weber was my favorite RB in this draft until I saw his rather lackluster 40 time. I love both Ohio State WRs though in Campbell and McLaurin. Hoping McLaurin falls to R3 and a big steal for the Raiders.

You're throwing out "rich man's" on some already great players. Julian Peterson and Anquan Boldin were both Top 5 players at a point in their respective primes. If someone is a rich man's Anquan Boldin sign me the F up lol. He's one of the most underrated WRs of his era.

I agree Boldin was a stud. Julian Peterson was good, but I think Josh Allen could be a better pass rusher than Peterson ever was. I see them playing similarly, as 4-3 OLB's that blitz a lot.

 

The reason I think he could be better than Boldin is because he's bigger and a little faster. His ceiling is higher. Both are built like brick S-Houses and are nightmares after the catch. I see AJ Brown winning deep down the field a lot more than Boldin did.

I think Ingram has way more stop and start quickness, but I do like Holyfield. Elijah Holyfield kind of reminds me of Corey Dillon.

This.  I thought that the first time I saw him run.  A later interview confirmed it.  They have extremely similar styles and play with the same anger on every play.

Ferguson - 6.45 256  Orchard- 6'3 250

Ferguson's not a great athlete but piled up production similar to Orchard. Orchard just wasn't a good enough tools guy to win in the NFL and I see some of the same weaknesses in Ferguson. He's gets owned often by pedestrian OL and confirmed that Senior Week by losing to almost everyone he went up against.

Holyfield - 5'10 215   McGuire 5'10 214

I see people praising Holyfield's power but he's not that big or strong. He runs with great lean and energy but he's not dynamic in any area. McGuire was a much more accomplished receiver but I think their running styles are identical.

Humphrey -  6'3 225  Moncrief 6.25 220

Humphrey has length, ball skills and size but not great lateral quickness. He's a go up and get it, down field target. That's also Moncrief.

I don't know what his 40 time is, but I got roasted by OSU fans for saying that JK Dobbins was faster than Weber. I have no idea how someone who isn't vision impaired could make that claim.

You don't think Holyfield is strong? He's definitely not that big, but....

He looks strong and plays strong. Not sure what you don't like about him. 

 

 

Image result for elijah mcguire

That is the guy you compared him to physically.

Weber has a projected 40 time of 4.60 majority of websites, if he can run sub 4.5 at the combine he could be a Top 2 RB in this draft.

I'll stick with Jacobs as #1 and Justice Hill as my #2 for the right offense (unpopular opinion). Overall, a pretty lackluster RB class. I'd wait til next year.

It seems like you're just comparing H/W profiles. Ferguson is a heavy-handed power rusher with an explosive first step. Orchard was a speed rusher who had no sand in his pants.

Holyfield has serious leg drive, runs with violence, and is sneaky quick, but nobody knows what sort of passing game target he is. McGuire is a scat back. Plus, Holyfield has excellent vision and footwork; those were two weaknesses of McGuire's coming out.

Humphrey is not a go up and get it down the field target. He's a big slot with great YAC skills who can win contested catches. Moncrief is a speedy outside WR who wins with vertical routes and routes that work off of his ability to get vertical.
