Payton may end up kicking himself. Not the first time he waived a mid round RB pick though. Think it was a 3rd rounder and we kept PT. He nailed that one but Ozigbo...teams were fired up to sign him immediately.

I just don't see how Fournette is going to make it through the whole season. He has never done it in college or the NFL. The probability of Ozigo being a starting RB this season is extremely high. Even if just for a few games.

Yeah but BS was never going to be the special teams monster Sproles was so the pundits were just screwing around as usual. Sproles had the 6th most AP yards in collegiate history.

I’m trying to see what you’re all seeing, but I don’t know, he’s good, but is he really that good?

Washington had higher avg yards per rush and pass.

Also, he did have a red zone fumble, and less to offer on special teams.

Good development player but I can’t blame Payton for just going by what he sees.

They are called tough cuts for a reason....

I remember him being knocked over by Trey Hendrickson in that training camp clip.
