Not true at all D. They had an all-american TE, a major running threat at QB, & their all-time receiving leader in Hamilton. Their O was loaded.

Still cant downplay how important bark is to opening the field for those other guys to make plays.

I know it's off-topic, but Orlando Brown only threw the bar up 14 times, and he's supposed to be one of the top 5 offensive linemen in the draft. WTF is up with that???

Buddy should have sat the combine out. Every event he competes in drops his stock. Did you see his 40? LMAO. That boy must have got wasted the night before combine or something.

Bruh theres a difference in doubting walton or even michel and simply stating Barkley is in a class of prospects all by himself at the RB position.
How they actually perform when they get to the NFL is going to be heavily dependent on what team they go to and what the situation is. Look at todd gurley for instance. Last year he was one of the worst starting RBs in the league - because the HC and offense was complete trash. This year under sean mcvay he was the best RB in the NFL.

So do I think its impossible for Walton to have a better NFL career than Barkley, of course no. But Is it likely? **** no...and I like Walton in this draft class.
id rank it:
1. Barkley
2. Guice
3. Ronald Jones
4. Michel
5. Walton
6. Chubb
7. John Kelly
8. Rashaad Penny
9. Kerryon Johnson
10. Nyheim Hines.

You sleeping on that Arizona state running back balage 6'2 230 running 4.4
 
Dude got shut down by Rutgers...pass! Just kidding...

It all depends where he ends up on how they utilize him. For me, when healthy, Fournette was the best (recent) college back that I’ve seen. I like a little violence with my game breaking RB.

Penn State has better players than Stanford... name somebody in their offense besides Bryce Love? And He's way better than Barkley.

To each his own, maybe ur right because it depends alot on where a guy goes to if he fits with the scheme and talent around him. U put Barkley on the Browns and he will be a jag cuz its the browns way. U put him on the giants with the weapons they have it may be a different story so we will see where the chips fall. I do like Barkley out of all the RB prospects but no thing is a sure thing, but u cant pick Walton over Bark u would get fired instantly for that. I remember the Texans GM getting fired after picking Mario Williams over Reggie Bush (even though they didnt report he was fired I think it was a stepping down situation Im not sure was too high) and I thought that was the better pick, he winded up being right.

Agreed, no such thing as a slam dunk, especially if they end up on a team like Cleveland. Guys like Reggie Bush and Andrew Luck were supposed to be can't miss hall of famers, too. Barkley looks like a fantastic prospect, but we should pump the brakes on this "sure thing" guarantee.

**** that was Freemans 40? dude looks shot out of a cannon when he runs the ball. I would def take Michel, its weird though that a guy like Duke can run a better 40 then Freeman yet when u watch them in the pros Freeman looks way faster. Thats why explosiveness to me is more important than speed with speed being 2nd. The short area burst is what separates guys from the rest.

Freeman and Duke have different running styles that's all. Look at the dude from pittsburg. Looks like he's walking back there sometimes but when he finds a seam he hits it. Others just have different stride lengths and what not but yea freeman has a fast paced running style.

Freeman's body composition and increases in explosiveness and power (since FSU) are highly suspicious. At FSU he was the elusive scatback to Wilder Jr's power dimension and now he's laying out defenders consistently on the Falcons. He also wore down big time late last season. Gotta be the juice.

He was always explosive though even in his HS highlights
 
Sorry Its really NO contest.

Love Walton but...But anyone who' seen both play and isn't looking thru green coated glasses would agree that Barkley is far better.

No argument with that but he's a back who ran from colour up until last season when he started to deliver blows and look much more explosive. See the below response.

I don't see it. I always liked him because he's quick, elusive and has great contact balance. But where's the clips of him lowering the shoulder and powering through tacklers? That's the stuff he did last year in particular that gave me pause. I know he's the same size as Bob Sanders and that dude was a nasty explosive hitter but you don't normally see backs become explosive like that in the middle of their careers.
