kingfin said:Why does everyone want Ronnie Brown.Is it because he ran a good 40 time.That to me is not football.Benson is the best coming out in this draft.He played well in collage.Brown played well too,but i dont like that whole thing with sharing carries with him and Williams.My friend brother goes to auburn and he told me Williams is the #1 man up here.They all love ronnie but williams is the show up in Auburn..I think Benson is going to be the best because he took a full load on himself.Ronnie came in with fresh legs when Defences were a little tired.Im not big on that..Benson is not ricky...Just got my ESPN MAG:roflmao:

As far as which fits Linehan's system best, I think is a bogus concept. No one knows what Linehan will run here. He will adapt a system to fit the personnel he has to work with. That is what good coaches do.

finfan54 said:If he was so great, why did he split time? Its cus he is a different type of RB than Caddy. Caddy made the big plays and ronnie drove home the power. They can both recieve out of the backfield. All this talk about ronnie being better out of the backfield is pure speculation in regards to being better than Caddy. Anyone who looks at Caddy and his running ability would say caddy is a better pure runner with the ball than any of them.
You have to ask yourself:
What good is speed when your running into people 2 and 3 people at a time?Caddy does not run into people, he makes them miss and then he's gone!

if ronnie brown was a freak why couldnt he win the stating position over a smaller back:yell: :confused:SkapePhin said:Ronnie Brown is a FREAK.. Scouts are drooling over him.. He will be a good player in the NFL.
zodiak said:Whats funny to me is that Ricky Williams is the Longhorns career rushing leader, he had many carries at UT, heck he had a tone of carries in his two seasons with Miami
but No one was complaining about the number of carries he had Texas or miami for that matter.
Either a back can go or he cant their is no way to protect a running back, with all the carries Benson had at Texas he is still healthy so IMO how many carries is overrated.
phinswin said:That could be a reason why he isnt playing now... not to mention most people are right we could use ronnie better and that could make the job easier for feeley if hes the starter.. we could use him like the chargers use LT thats why i think trading for the the tampa bay deal will work out better for use cause we could still select ronnie there... and if for some reason hes not available at #5 then we take who evers available in edwards or williams or trade that pick again for a team who wants one of those guys...
Trackstar#6 said:The thing is we don't know for sure which RB fits our system best because we still don't know what type of offense we will be running. Only Saban and our O.C know exactly what type of back will fit in our scheme. So we really don't know which RB fits.
