if he finds a way to get immediate burst off the line instead of stutter stepping, he'll be worlds better.

In the mod forum planning your ban
He is in 11-15 range. He lacks breakaway speed and a OL but I see him as a slower Forte. I know I'll get flak for that comparison

He and Howard are oddly very similar.

Nuttin wrong wit dat. Howard was a 5th round pick. Pace hit the lottery like he normally does in that round in terms of bang for the buck

WOW!!!!

This seems fair. With a better OL and IF Nagy can use him correctly, I think he cracks the top 10. He had 5 pretty productive weeks at the end of the year last season. Hope to see that continue in 2021.

You guys are haters David Montgomery is 100% in the top 10, back half, but he's in there.

He's okay. I've never been much of a fan, to be honest. He had all his big games against weak competition, but did next to nothing when he played against good teams. He's in that mid-tier category of RB's.

He's a guy you use for the duration of his contract, and then let him walk when it expires. You don't re-sign RB's that have no special traits.

If his Oline actually opens holes for him this year he's easily a top 10 back. He's not a 4.4 guy, but he's shown he can take it to the house 80yds if he's given some daylight.

Not a speed demon but tough to take down. Not many holes given the OL he’s been given. Maybe he breaks out with more competent OL help.

Id rank him around 10. Theres a bunch of meh RBs today. Guys i like more than him include
Barkley
Cook
Kamara
Chubb
Hunt
Jones
Henry
Elliot
Gordon
Ron Imhoff

But he's never played with a good QB that defenses respect. His run blocking for the most part has been shit.

he is a top 10 back if they just use him. Just compare his stats from 2019 to 2020. I’m sure his speed is break away enough to have an 80 yard touchdown run……just give him the damn ball either rushing or receiving
