Welcome RB Keaton Mitchell

[Steve]

Wonder if Johnson can get to that speed as quickly as Mitchell, though? What really sets guys like Tyreek Hill and Achane apart is that they can hit top gear pretty much immediately. Ladd can do this,too

If you are running in the 4.3's, you are getting up to speed pretty quick. There is just not that much room to make up for not getting up to speed quickly and still get in under 4.4.

Ek i think took it upon himself to stick his neck out and voice something nobody else (other runningbacks) would. Some would call that leadership. I get it….the system is definitely unfair from a comp standpoint and its a bit ridiculous when you think about it that a top rb that touches the ball 20-25 times a game makes 3-4 times less than a top wr that maybe gets 10 catches….********** does have its points where it doesnt quite add up. I think its fair to have elevated this….if it was my pay yah id be a bit pissed too. Of course im not making $5-10m a year as a top rb either.

Im excited about our rb room…very dynamic. Lots of upside.

I didn't see other RBs whining about their contracts nearly as much as Ekeler.

He was a great player but his heart wasn't in the game.
he grew up a cowboy, didn't grow up with a passion for football.
Money was his motivation and that's perfectly fine, but the NFL was simply the highest paying job he could get.
imo this explains a lot of the whining.

Ekeler is old news, no?
