On top of that we haven't seen a RB on this roster with this type of work ethic as far as conditioning his body. His strength is 2nd to none vs Titan RBs this decade! Damn... you all about you some Nick the Quick. I wonder if you'd have felt the same way about Emmett Johnson had the Chiefs not jumped us for him. Not that I've heard whether or not Johnson was on our radar, but it seems like he may have been. Or maybe that Borgonzi wanted Veach to think he was.

ctm Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 (edited) Singleton was the highest rated RB coming out of high school. His play fell off his last year and he essentially lost the starting spot. All that before he broke a bone in his foot. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Nicholas-Singleton-RB-PennState Edited April 29 by ctm titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AussieTitanFan08 Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 2 hours ago, OILERMAN said: I said right after the draft, I totally expect Singleton to be the main ball carrier as a rookie Tomato Can Pollard is all but done. If Borgonzi doesn't pull some magic out his ass to fix this OL no RB is going to look great this season especially one who apparently has feel and vision as the main knock to his profile.

Popular Post Mythos27 Posted April 29 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 29 I really hate to be that homer ass fan but I think we might have a steal in Singleton. I'm not predicting any pro bowls or anything but turning into a starting level back as a 5th round pick would definitely fall into steal territory. This ain't fucking Antonio Andrews or Hassan Haskins. Homerun hitting ability is the one trait that IMO separates good backs from backs you actually pay. That he can catch the ball is a nice little cherry on top. BeedoeLaw, TerryBoats, Callidus, and 7 others 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the mix of those two. He's taller than both and faster than Sproles...but he runs every play with one gear, and that's where the comparison lands imo. Great speed, better acceleration, one cut and gone style player with good hands. He doesn't have the balance of those guys, but that's how he plays.

XAEA12 Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 Singleton was drafted over his teammate Kaytron Allen who was viewed as a better runner, and it's for a reason. His pass catching ability is legitimate in a way we haven't seen here maybe ever. They are going to use him as a passer a lot and frankly would like him to start over Pollard, which I expect unless his vision and decision making are truly terrible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I predicted this pick just as we made it. So did Nashville Ninja...sorta. Anyway, he hits the hole hard...no hesitation. I can't wait to have sex with h...I mean, I can't wait to see him on the field. Mythos27, and IsntLifeFunny 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
