I can't wait to see this offense start to operate.
I agree that Gio is an underrated back when he is not hesitant and just hits holes. He has had problems with this after the Shazier hit even if it seemed he overcame it the last few years. Also, Gio may be good at catching the ball but so are Mixon, Traveon and Rodney, this is why Zac and company drafted Traveon and Rodney for their Offense. Traveon was my favorite RB in that entire Draft for heck sake. Great at running, catching can play physical and can take it the distance at any time.
Rodney Anderson is also very good at catching the ball and is smooth and hard to bring down. If not for the injuries he could of been a top back.
I honestly don't know why Traveon fell as far as he did though. Still makes me shake my head, teams will regret it and Traveon Williams is Giovani Bernard's perfect replacement. We will see how he does in the NFL though.
