Secondly, Brown has largely not played much in his rookie season WHICH WAS LAST YEAR. Thirdly, Brown has shown potential to be a decent, if not quality RB in the little playing time he got last year WHICH WAS HIS ROOKIE SEASON. Lastly, Brown isn't lauded. People are HOPEFUL that he'll be good, but no one has said that Chase Brown is an already established good RB.

BTW, Chase Brown was a rookie last year. Don't know if you knew that. 


You had me at Kareem Hunt. As Sheev Palpatine once said, "Do it."

Just because he was a rookie doesn't mean he didn't suck.  And without a play call or ridiculously good blocking opening up a sea of green in front of him, he sucked.  And typically, there's not a big learning curve for RB's running the ball.  Not mention, he was horrible against Tampa a week ago and had a whole thread dedicated to his poor play.

I'm hopeful everyone on the team will be good.  I ride Volson as hard as anyone, but I'll also be extremely happy if he can prove me wrong and develop into a quality LG this year.  I'll happily eat my crow if he does.  But when folks are largely like "We don't need to do anything at RB other than sign a journeyman to replace Mixon because we we have Chase Brown," that's way beyond "hopeful."
