There's a ton of TE talk and rightfully so. RT and adding to Dline has got a lot of attention and again, rightfully so.
But one thing, here I go again, that I also feel needs some serious attention is our RB room. IMHO our lack of efficiency at running the ball is one of our bigger problems, near the top. And I get it and fully agree there's a bunch of peels to that onion. Scheme, play calling, blocking style, just overall game situations and so on.
But I believe our lack of dynamic backs is part of the equation as well. Let's face it, C. Evans and T. Williams need to be gone. C. Brown has flashed and shown promise, but I'm not sure he's a true "bell cow" type? And Mixon, well that horse has been beat to death, lets just say he's not a game changer.
We need new life in our RB room to say the least. I read a draft profile that read words to the effect of "Blake Corum isn't really elite at any one thing, but he's great at almost everything."
A tag team of Chase Brown and Blake Corum may well be just what the Dr. ordered? And Mixon if he has to stay and he probably will. I just strongly feel in order for this team to really hit it's top gear we have to get better at running the ball.
If Corum is there at 80 I hope they run to the podium and take him.
