That was a long time ago, sheesh. Best back in NFL history IMO. Imagine that guy on the 49ers or Dallas of the same time frame.
I agree best nfl back I ever saw. But maybe he was so great because he had to deal with a sub par team... maybe putting him on another team and we don'tget to see his escapeabilty..
So who's gone? QB - Etling? Harris? Nope. Harris could transfer and play FCS or sit out and play at a ULL (like Jennings)... For some reason I doubt he will be eligible as a graduate transfer. RB - Fournette WR - Dupre? Chark? Dupre is badly in need of boosting his stock. Charke will be All-SEC next year. TE - None OT - None OG - Malone isn't even close to there yet. C - None DT - LaCouture could get another year but I believe he announced that he would not. DE - Herron and Clark are going nowhere. ILB - None OLB - Donnie Alexander isn't ready and I believed is undersized to get drafted regardless. CB - Paris, nope. S - Battle? Nope. Adams is gone. He will be a top 5 pick. So really, all we are waiting for is the inevitable with Adams...
It would be huge to keep Adams. I would love for him to hang around for another year. nothing like a veteran to help coach up the newer guys, not to mention the guy is a stud Another huge keep is Moore. Guise needs to send this guy a thank you card in advance for next year.
Dorsett was damn good. Hell, I'm old enough I saw Jim Brown play. He's in my Top 5 of all time great running backs.
Barry was beyond special! On the other side of the spectrum, i was always a big fan of Earl Campbell.
