But if he gets the pass blocking down, early, he'll definitely be Ingram's replacement after we win it all...

He can block. Much stronger than Sproles ever was. I'm telling you, people are sleeping on him. He's very powerful. Probably more so than most RB's in the legs. He has the ability to buy time. Not some flashy skatback. Sproles, but slightly bigger and much stronger physically.

Beast, don't doubt Scott's physical abilities. As I posted on another thread, for me, he evokes memories of a Joe Morris-type RB (Parcells G'nats 80s RB)...

No, I was referring to how fast he learns the offense, more specifically, how fast he learns his reads with regards to his blocking assignments...

We may've drafted a 3rd rd RB in the R6, but with the late veteran FA signings (e.g. Vereen, West), wondering if coaches are hedging...

As you've mentioned before, you cannot have too many RB options. We learned that lesson the hard way.
