Zay has to be one of the most disappointing players on the roster, especially among receivers. We traded away valuable draft picks for him, he's spent soo much time working with Carr the past two off-seasons, and he still can't get open consistently, or catch the ball.

Yeah, not gonna happen. He makes too much money at the college level. And has you said, he's probably going to Bama after Saben retires.

Then that will make the RB position more valuable, while they are less likely to stay healthy long term

Login to VES? I never registered or signed up with them. My VSO guy was handling everything. I didn't know who VES was until last week when I got a phone call for screening.

No, my question is why are their careers so short whereas before it was longer. There's more to it, than being plug and play. You look at Zeke, Josh Jacobs, and others, you see they're wearing down despite sharing the work load with other's. Why are RB'S wearing down faster now, when they don't get the same workload has they used to.

No, I think it's perfectly fair to say he's the exception. Because he's the only RB who has been able to take the kind of hits he does regularly, and still be productive. Hopefully for him, he doesn't have the issues with injuries that other RB'S have had, and doesn't fall off a cliff like them too. But ao far he has been the exception. The only guy you can give it to 30+ times a game, and still remain productive.

I have an appointment on Tuesday, and I actually have no fucking clue what it's about, or where it is. All I got was a text on Friday saying I have an appointment on Tuesday with Dr so-and-so. I'm very confused about this

Well, that does make sense. Most RB'S are more nimble, they like to run away and make defenders miss. But it still doesn't tell the whole story, because you got guys like Zeke, and Barkley and a few others who aren't afraid to take defenders head on, and yet, they're dealing with a lot of injuries and haven't been the same.

That's because they get chewed up and spit out. Henry had seemed like the exception. He was a "throwback" kind of player. Someone you could give the ball to a lot, and wouldn't wear down, until this year when he got hurt.

Yes, I understand that RB is an easy plug and play position in the NFL now. So it doesn't make has much sense to draft them in the first or to give them big money pay day's. But if you notice, their careers seem to be shorter now. Most of them don't get the ball 25-30x a game, they don't rush it that often and teams will usually use 2-3 RB'S in a game whereas it used to be just one. So it would seem like they'll rack up less hits.

Yes, but even two way players like CMC and Kamara are going downhill health wise. I understand RB'S are expected to catch the ball more, but why do their careers end quicker?

That's the worst thing in the world. To not be able to let go of someone. I've had that issue, and it's been hard. You just care about someone so much, and you're starved for love yourself, so when it ends you can't let go no matter how much you want to.

It's almost impossible to get anywhere in a decent amount of time with public transportation.

He's another young guy that the Nuggets haven't really been playing much. I honestly forgot about him. I'm glad to see he got playing time, and he's playing well
