    So you have no comment on Walton's on-field performance with the Bengals? You're gonna just continue to answer my questions with questions? @DMoney - Do you think Walton was played poorly when he was with the Bengals? You've made no comment. Can you point where where Mark Walton's on-field...

    Draft Capital & Reputation @DMoney - weird that you never mention the year he spent with the Bengals. So let's take a look at how he got to the Dolphins first. Please point out the positives you saw in Walton's on-field performance with the Bengals. Like I said "When you try to use actual...

    The flaw in your argument is you never talk about Walton's on-field performance. I always talk about what he actually did on the field. But I do commend the cleverness in your arguments. Walton was a 4th Rd pick, started 4 games for the Dolphins, the coaches loved him - all that is absolutely...

    Not if you post here with "original" in your name. They'll tell you I've lost every argument.

    Walton definitely did start over Gaskin for 4 games. Kalen Ballage started over Gaskin for 6. Patrick Laird for 4. Speaking of Kalen Ballage - he started over Walton for 2 games. Here's Balage's numbers in those 6 starts. There's certainly no denying Ballage's talent. He was definitely a...

    That's so disrespectful to Walton!! None of those dudes got even close to putting up the numbers Walton did. Not even Wilson behind North Texas's OL. Not even Edmonds behind Fordham's OL.

    Maybe he is. Do you have size speed measurements for him? I only see size of varies. By my eyes he's not a better size/speed combo than Chaney or Cam. Looks like a good enough athlete, but nothing special athletically. In regards to the contact balance - that's where I have an issue if he's...

    My hope is Lyle can actually become what Canes fans thought Walton was.

    Based on our past discussions - I find it hard to believe you'd be happy if we just kept taking Dade/Broward RB's every year that never play in the NFL. If you're not expecting NFL for Lyle, then why comp him to James White? Why would Parrish/Walton comps be underselling Lyle? When Ajay Allen...

    I think we're kind of in the middle - I completely agree we've have good/productive RB's. But the expectation is "these guys have NFL talent, they'll play in the NFL", and that didn't/hasn't happened. Gray - No NFL Yearby - No NFL Walton - 2 yrs NFL - 235 rushing yds Burns - Transfer - NFL...

    Those guys have a combined 235 rushing yds in the NFL. Those are all Walton yds - and his 4 starts were a fortunate "right place/right time", not a talent thing. The majority of CIS swore up and down every one of them were NFL guys. A lot of people well into their career swore they wee...

    Maybe Fletcher & Lyle are big time RB's. That's still TBD. But the same "He's a stud RB because he dominated South Florida" logic was also applied to Yearby, Walton, Cam, Knighton, Chaney, Parrish & Franklin. If you keep saying it, you're bound to hit eventually. But given our poor hit rate...

    Riley has much more of a boom / bust range of outcomes IMO. I liked him better based on his Jr highlights and was higher on him back when he commited. Once he gets moving forward, he has some really nice size, good speed, makes nice cuts and shows some good power. I can see why anyone would...

    Homer I left off because he's PBC, and I was showing Dade/Broward. But I'd rate Homer as the best of the bunch. I also forgot Robert Burns who surprisingly has been on the Bears practice squad this year, but didn't do anything in college. There's plenty of good college players on that list -...

    "South Florida" lines can be drawn a lot of ways, but if you're looking at just Miami's Dade/Broward RB's since Duke Johnson, it's been a while since we've had a big hit. The issue is Dade/Broward RB's haven't been the same since the 2014 class. We're still hanging on to past glory & I can...

    Type wise - he's the good at everything, not great at anything type RB. All around solid, a nice take, high floor but not high ceiling type. Talent wise - he's on a par with the RB's we had this year & similar to the Dade/Broward RB's we've been getting the last 10 years. Style wise - I can...
