Yearby second team is no surprise. Gus is simply a dud. Dude is too slow hitting the hole, and still too upright running. He is not the "big back" we need. His future is at FB anyway if we bring in 2 good RBs in the next recruiting class.
I don't think he's a total waste, I think the kid can still contribute, but as an RB, he's simply not quick enough and does not make the best use of his size for our purposes.
I disagree with Edwards being a fb. As u say he slow to the line, runs high, is angular and not physical. That sounds like the antithesis of a fb. He is a rb all the way and should never play a meaningful snap
Fair enough, let me rephrase. I think Gus gets MOVED to FB. Wether he actually sees any snaps as a FB, or succeeds there is another issue. But if we bring in 2-3 Rbs this year, Gus isn't going to be at RB for long. IMO he will be moved to FB, or maybe even LB. There doesn't seem to be much reason to keep him at RB after this year, and if he's spiraling down the depth chart into Boliva.
