My two cents says that IMO, this is not only a sports forum people can express their opinion but also a place some may use to vent some daily frustrations that they may not have another place to vent.

Again, I'm not a doctor, but I've seen one on TV...;)
Did you stay at a Holiday Inn Express too - haha!

In reality, I hope Love is the best of the best. I'm looking forward to see what all of his hype is and a running back and a receiver. It would definitely add a wrinkle or two to a really good defensive team to have to worry about Love, McBride, Wilson, and maybe even Harrison. That right there is a full force impact to contend with. Almost like a good team ◡̈. Now, if we can get something out of the defense.

Love per game average around 15-17 carries
3-5 catches out of backfield

100 yards or so per game

Algiers will get 8-10 carries and has a nose for goal line.

Connor and Benson are non factors

Not sure i see Peterson's almost Barry Sanders-esque cut on a dime ability from him yet, but instead see a little more Marshall Faulk in him... which would be just fine and dandy too.
His style of running reminds me of Walter Payton. His style. He is not Sweetness till he can show this during the regular season, but the guy has ability no doubt.

I was initially against drafting Love, but a week or two before the draft I switched because it was apparent that he was the most talented player.

His showing against the Raiders is just scratching the surface of what he can be.

I think he’s more like a WR 3. If the first 2 options aren’t open, check it down to Love.
I agree that he’s a reasonable third option in the passing game. Bill Barnwell did an analysis of how top RBs play from the WR position and they were all replacement-level.

Watch the replays of his runs. His yards after contact is incredible.
On 2 or 3 of his yin’s he got 4-5 yards after contact.

Maybe over the course of his career but David Johnson’s peak was 2k from scrimmage and first team all pro.

I actually never thought David Johnson was that great. He always fell over, didint have great speed or power. I thought they just had a great offense and he was smart. The minute the line/offense regressed so did his physical/athletic limitations began to show.
