RBs popping off randomly each week is more of a Shanahan thing. As in Mike Shanahan.

Anybody have the Rolodex of random 1k yard rushers Mike Shannahan and and now his son have made?

I'm also pretty sure it's because of Mike Shannahan and his offense that nobody values RBs anymore these days. He now has a coaching tree in the NFL of teams who run his offense or variations of it and there are enough teams that succeed with it that it dilutes other teams RBs.

Man, no idea about the rolodex. but the coaches who use a Shanahan scheme that's Walsh-based passing and Gibbs-based running:

Kevin Stefanski

Zac Taylor

Matt LaFleur

Sean McVay

Kyle Shanahan

There's honestly even more than that, but they're more hybrid and Holmgren-y coaches like Andy Reid, Jon Gruden, Matt Nagy, and Doug Pederson

Devin Duvernay will probably develop into a good slot receiver for the Ravens, provided we ever get a real passing scheme. So far he’s fast, runs well after the catch, and has good hands. 

also Tyus Bowser will likely be a quietly good free agent pickup for someone this season - he’s been really good in coverage, I’d like to see him (and Judon for that matter) in a 4-3.

Former Raider Denico Autry is having good season was 6.5 sacks.

He was always a good, underrated player for the Silver and Black. A lot of us wanted him back to provide done penetration and pass rush. Glad he's playing well and having a really silud career.

Nick Kwiatkoski is quietly having a really solid year for the Raiders and looks like our clear best defensive addition despite being much lower profile than Littleton. He should be the marshall if the D fir the next few years at least.

Gary Kubiak in MN. But MN paid their RB.
