Gus needs to run with some urgency.
Thats just it he doesnt have it and will be passed by everybody. People keep saying he's a big rb a different type of rb on the team. He is the biggest running back on the team but he is the softest one on top of that. I see a transfer in the future for him
He is a fullback and should be used like najeh
Only reason Najeh ended up at FB was because of the injury he had, Najeh was a ******* STUD at RB pre-injury if you were able to witness back then.
Edge and Najeh would have been the ******* duo man. Najeh had redic speed at his size before injury.
I think Tucker fits what we would be looking for in a Najeh role at FB. Btw, Tucker got some ridiculous speed at his size, could be a weapon there.
I do think Gus can be good, I don't see great. But he really needs to step it up.
Think Gus profile coming out of high school was a fullback too.
I've said and felt it before. It's make or break for Gus this year. Scarlett and Williams are on their way for 2015(I think Cronk ends up at safety, explained this before in another thread.) and Walton in 2016. And Yearby already passed him up and Gray making early raves with really no play book down pack yet.
Gus runs too upright, it's like he's doing the opposite of what he should be doing with his size, and he doesn't have speed either, needs to use his strength and lower the pads, he could be a good back like that. He try's to play like a speed/scat back.
If Gus doesn't step up more this season, see a move to fullback or a transfer. Cause he WILL get passed up if he doesn't put up. It's go time, I've seen good things from him too, but this is make it or break it season for him at RB.
